some buglist for the 14.0.6 release
by Mio 22 Dec '19

22 Dec '19

Hello guys. I've installed a PClinuxOS distro with TDE 14.0.6 recently and collected some buglist while exploring it. High possibility that some bugs isn't actual now (or just not bugs but feature lol) so i decided to sent it via mail first. Here is it: [konqueror] no file previews for ntfs-mounted disks [konqueror] duplicated items in the "System" tab sometimes (https://files.catbox.moe/6csxx6.png) [konqueror] stops generating previews if user opens a file [konqueror] may return "Memory allocation failed" when omage opens in embedded preview [kuickshow] shows broken image from framebuffer instead of opened file [kmplayer] seek bar didn't work correctly (click on the random time, mplayer will skip time == one step) [kmplayer] press on the "Play" button when playback is paused will stop it (possible it's not a bug but kinda annoying) [compositor] settings do not apply after click on "Apply" button, re-enabling is needed [compositor] incorrect calculation of the shadow position, i was not able to make it centered [compositor] may apply transparency to the windows even if this option is disabled [compositor] "apply only for decorations" option does not work [compositor] several re-enablings will result in gui(twin?) hang [compositor] possibly didn't work correctly when system goes in suspend [compositor] -- overall opinion: quite buggy and unusable -- [lockscreen] when exiting from suspend, lockscreen may appear above current desktop, not clean background [keyboard config] some hotkeys didn't work (like Alt+PrtSc) [keyboard config] hotkey assign window is laggy, if opened too long - twin will hang [keyboard config] kb layout switch didn't work with embedded switcher (known bug) [kkbswitch] strange font in tray icon [twin] may hang if some messy window appeared (example: MPUI frontend under wine, set "Compact mode", open a file, pause playback, apply window size by frame size and then make bottom toolbar appear-dissapear. Frame will distort and twin will hang after some time) [kmix] -- all bugs when tray regulator was set to pulseaudio output -- [kmix] tray regulator not adjusting on wheel scroll; my soundcard master output volume (in mixer window) is adjusted instead. [kmix] soundcard master output volume adjusts from 52 to 100% (not sure if trinity related though) [kmix] tray regulator didn't apply settings to the output it was set to (i can set 0% in the pulseaudio output tab but with tray regulator i can get the sound 100% and pa output in mixer will be still 0%) [kweather] no actual info for Rostov-on-Don(RU), shows data from 2018 [showfoto] crash after click on the Colors tab (TDECRSH-eea4c1d-5260ea9-a67aab6-5e9e698-843a94c-8d10fec-2036aa0) [amarok] crashes on playback activation, possibly after recent xine-lib update (PClinuxOS, no debug info available) [arts] samplerate change affects event sounds tempo (old bug, from KDE) [tde menu] often lose mouse focus (affects search bar in classic mode and tabs in kickoff mode) [desktop(?)] if Menu bar at screen top is enable, it appears with the additional unused space (https://files.catbox.moe/wcewuq.png) [gtk3-wrapper] looks like needs to update theme schemes (applying TDE theme to the GTK3 apps completely brokes theming of those) [tdm(?)] gtk3 apps that needed root access didn't start after successful auth when tdm is set as DM. [tdm] "scale & crop setting" didn't work for wallpaper, picture will be still just "scale"d. But picture will be resized as needed directly after login [dbus rule script] "at console" rule is deprecated and didn't work, affects power options for generic users [mailing lists] http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::16489 Cannot decode string with wide characters at /usr/lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/perl/5.24/Encode.pm line 202. Also one question, for what i can't find the answer: is there option that can replace full paths with short ones in the windows headers and taskbar (file:///media/dsk/docs..., Konqueror, KWrite and others)?

trouble with tdm on debian/buster
by James D Freels 22 Dec '19

22 Dec '19

Hello TDE users/developers: First, let me take this opportunity to state, once again, TDE is by far, my favorite desktop. I have used it for many years, and continue to support it financially and encourage all users to do likewise. I am using debian/buster now since it's release. I am also using the "preliminary stable builds" of TDE using the following location: deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity-sb buster deps-r14 main-r14 I am having 2 problems. The first is with TDM, which I will describe here. I will ask for help on the 2nd problem later. In addition to tdm-trinity, I also have 2 other login managers installed: lightdm and lxdm. Both of these are working fine. Only TDM has this problem. I would much prefer to use TDM. If I boot up under TDM (after running dpkg-reconfigure tdm-trinity first to initiate TDM into the boot sequence), it starts fine, but continuously hangs in the main console with one of the infamous systemd problems wherein we get the "a startjob is running ..." and it NEVER ends until rebooted. The TDM session appears to run fine, and I can login and run TDE fine. However, because the vt1 console is never ending waiting to complete, I have no other VT consoles. Essentially, I have NO virtual consoles at all. Further, computer resources are always wasted and never ends waiting for the the startup to completely finish. This ONLY happens when booting up with TDM. I can bootup with LXDM or LIGHTDM and this does not happen. Further, I can issue a "systemctl stop lightdm" or "systemctl stop lxdm" (depending on which is running from the boot), then issue a "systemctl start tdm-trinity" and TDM runs fine and there is not a never ending startjob waiting to complete. So, it appears that TDM does not start in the same order of the boot sequence as LXDM and/or LIGHTDM which is causing this problem. It is at this point, where I need some help in how to fix it, and I suspect that all debian/buster users may have the same issue, but not sure of course. I hope I can help get his bug fixed before the final release of TDE for buster. Thanks again. Jim Freels, PhD (retired)

by BorgLabs - Kate Draven 21 Dec '19

21 Dec '19

Hi people A recent update seems to be causing amarok to crash when I attempt to play a song. I get the usual signal 11 stuff of the gui. From the commadline I get [kcrash] TDECrash: Application 'amarokapp' crashing... Invalid write to eventfd: Bad file descriptor Code should not be reached at pulsecore/fdsem.c:199, function pa_fdsem_post(). Aborting. [kcrash] Unable to start Dr. Konqi Any idea as to what might be causing this? It's happening on all pclos boxes. Cheers to all, Kate

Did you install Slavek's version, or are you trying to update "regular" TDE with Slavek's version? I never tried the second option, but having the Premilimanry stable builds installed on Buster (clean install, not upgrade) I see not problem with apt-get update Thierry

Mouse too fast - where can I set DPI ?
by Internal Affairs 17 Dec '19

17 Dec '19

Hello all you good people, My mouse is moving too fast. It is a simple Crystal White Mouse bij Logitech, nothing fancy. I tried setting DPI in the hwdb of udev. But it seems like it only works for a few seconds, and then the mouse is fast again. Setting accelaration to 0 also does not help. I have no idea where the DPI is set. evdev is not present on this system. My distro is ExeGnu. Any ideas? Eric-Jan

kmail forever indexing is back
by Gene Heskett 16 Dec '19

16 Dec '19

Greetings all; So I picked the largest cur dirs, and using mc have moved about 2 years worth of each to an outside of the ~/Mail view of kmail. And nuked those index files, so it has to rebuild them. Its not done with that yet, but we'll see. Damn this is getting old. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
