For quite a while now I've been unable to use TDEsu to open utilities that require root access, e.g. TDM configuration. TDEsu freezes after I enter the root password and press Enter. When I run it from the command line I see > tdesu: WARNING: Daemon not safe (not sgid), not using it. Looking at /opt/trinity/bin/tdesud, I saw that indeed, it was not sgid, so I set that bit; but it still hangs, albeit without the message. I see that there are four programs associated with this function: > -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 59912 2019-03-18 15:53:08 /opt/trinity/bin/tdesu > -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 14544 2019-03-18 15:37:31 /opt/trinity/bin/tdesu_stub > -rwxr-sr-x 1 root root 55440 2019-03-18 15:53:08 /opt/trinity/bin/tdesud > -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 72200 2019-03-19 15:10:26 /opt/trinity/bin/tdesudo Should other bits be set for one or more of these? Is there a missing entry in /etc/group? What else should I look for? N.B. I have tried reinstalling the package containing TDEsu, but that hasn't helped. Leslie

Random session restore failures

by Philip Ashmore

Hi there. Programs that sometimes fail to restore across boots: Kate Konsole Konqueror Thunderbird Sometimes when Konsole restores it forgets the "Paper" schema and reverts to default. Sometimes the sound starts muted and I have to enable it with kmixer which tells me that I have two mixers, PulseAudio and "HDA Intel PCH". Maybe that's because I end the session with earphones plugged in and start it with them unplugged, not sure. I had these problems before upgrading to Buster, but they seem to be happening more frequently recently. Is there somewhere session restore errors are logged? Unrelated ping: currently System Guard does not show network speed: http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2398 Regards, Philip Ashmore

auto Right-click on selection

by Christian Schmitz

Hi all. I have a Opensuse tumbleweed 7 days from update. And i foun a strange "function". Every time that i select something automatically is pressed right click ( drop down the menú). This is very annioning because select some files on konqueror implies move without question ( takes the right click as an anwser to menú move/copy/link) Personally i want disable any type of automation. Really i allways preffer do my own task, i dont like the autocopy to clipboard of selected text (strange thing from some time), no right click, i can done it if i want do it. Best Regards.

TDE keyboard layout crashes when clicked on systray icon

by Stefan Krusche

Good day everyone, has anybody seen this? I prepared a bug report. I'm not sure where I should post it these days… TGW rather than bugzilla, I guess, right? Problem: When I click on the systray icon the xserver crashes fatally. TDE configuration: TDE keyboard layout is configured to provide de, de-neo, en-us keyboard layouts in that order. Keyboard layouts are applied at program level. Reproduce: Click on desktop and/or program window and then click on keyboard layout icon in systray. Symptoms: The screen goes black immediately and I have no more control via keyboard or mouse. After ~20-25 seconds I can hear a beep from the mainboard (it's a desktop PC), after another ~10-15 seconds I hear another beep, and sometimes a third one, after which a console screen appears from which I gather that Xorg crashed fatally. Any advice welcome, thanks. Kind regards, Stefan

Tmux in Konsole = screen corruption in Debian Buster

by Jan Stolarek

I noticed another problem after a recent update to Debian Buster: using Tmux in Konsole leads to screen corruption. More specifically, cleaning the screen (e.g. via Ctrl+L) does not work, leaving the screen garbled. At first I thought that this might have something to do with my tmux or .bashrc, but removing their config and running both bash and tmux on default settings leads to same results. Also, I noticed that the problem is only present in Konsole - other terminal emulators (e.g. xterm, lxterminal) work fine. Anyone knows a workaround?

Trinity won't start after updating Arch Linux - workaround for libice

by Snidely Whiplash

I just subscribed so I could post this workaround. It took me days to figure out what was actually wrong with the libice in Archaroo (I use Manjaro, but it's Arch's PGKBUILDS that they use for these packages). It's misleading because of the "ICE connection refused! No supported authentication protocols" etc. What happened is that the location of ICEauthority has been changed to /run/user/UID/ICEauthority (which is $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR) from ~/.ICEauthority and it doesn't jibe. Blank files are being created in both locations, that don't get the magic cookie data written to them. A workaround is to simply set an ICEAUTHORITY environment variable... export ICEAUTHORITY=/home/yourname/.ICEauthority I just added that variable to the top of my ~/.xinitrc file that I use with startx export ICEAUTHORITY=/home/grogan/.ICEauthority exec starttde I am using current git sources for trinity, and that workaround works for me. I love Trinity by the way, it's my favourite desktop in the world. (I liked KDE 3.x back in the day).
