I've encountered this as well.
I usually just relock kicker and start again.
If that doesn't work I log in again, that usually fixes it.
I suspect small gnomes are living in my computers.

HI
I would like everyone's opinion on this.
I'm trying figure out the benefits of either staying with the LTS kernel or
with the lastest kernel. The machines are every day use and stability is
important.
Am I tossing away any benefits, of the latest kernel, if I use the 4.8x/9x
kernel. Or do the benefits of the 5.1x kernel out weigh any instability?
I'd like all schools of thought.
Thanks in advance,
Kate

Thanks David,
This is my thinking as well. I have no real bleeding edge tech, I tend to stay
away from it. Just wanted to challenge me decision , in case I was wrong.

First, I haven't figured out how to get t-bird to quote, or even to
reply to a list posting, so this is all by had, I can't even get
copy/paste to work.
Dr Klepp asked which system:
This is the same old asus box, in the house that ran wheezy for years,
but now has an uptodate stretch amd64 install. At least I think its
uptodate, they've made it almost impossible to run synaptic now,
I ran, late yesterday about 3 full cycles of memtest, no errors.
The main problems withkmail seem to be related to index files getting
out of whack and I have restored it by stopping kmail, deleting the
index files for the folder thats crashing, and restarting kmail --sync.
Leave it alone for an hour or so and it will rebuild the index files
again. But its in trouble again if I delete or move a file to the spam
folder.
And running it from a shell, to get that debugging output, when did
kmail become dependent on N-M, as pasted from tht shell:
ene@coyote:~$ kmail --sync

[kcrash] TDECrash: Application 'kmail' crashing...
Thats one session of kmail, lasted maybe 10 seconds before I clicked on
something and crashed it again.
As you can see, its fussing about the coco list folder, which is the
parent of around 17 subfolders named ack the year of each ones messages.
Starting year is 2002, goes on to 2018 with the parent folder now
containing the 2019 messages. If kmail survives the year, those will
get moved to a 2019 folder. If it survives, its being a pita and I am
just now learning how to use both t-bird and imap.
Do you have any ideas? I'm all ears. Thanks Nik.
Hi Gene!
(This is not directly a TDE question, so it might be of no interest to a lot of readers, but anyway ...)
If I recall correctly, you have mentioned somewhere that you have a RPi + TDE + 7i90HD running. Yesterday a 7i960HD ended up on my desk. Now I want to build a new CNC with RPi + TDE + 7i90HD, but I am stuck at how to flash the correct firmware to the card. I understand that I need mesaflash to flash 7i90_spi_svst4_8.bit (http://linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/man/man9/hm2_rpspi.9.html) from a pc via what? Centronics cable? Do you have a link to the needed cables? And maybe a working linuxcnc configuration?
Nik

Thank you Michael,
The logic is sound. Again something I've leaned toward but I wanted to make
sure I wasn't making a mistake.
Again, the beauty of the community,

Hello all,
It's not a Trinity problem (although it happens in kmail), but as I
know there are some experienced people on this list, maybe someone can
give me a hint.
Since yesterday I can't connect kmail to my main mail server (the
server of my own website). I can't send either, I can't connect to the
website, I can't connect to it's cpanel, I can't ftp either.
I *can* connect to the internet, I get mail from another website, it's
really only "my" website.
I use spamdrain as spamfilter and spamdrain can access my mail. So
does gmail. My handphone can read my mail over data from the very same
pop3 server.
The provider says from his point of vue everything is working. I've
reset the modem and the router. It's not my machine as every machine
on my local network has the problem.
What, on my local network, could block access to only my website (the
provider's site is accessible)? Firewall is activated but nothing has
been changed yesterday.
The fact that only *one* site is having problem makes me think the
problem is at the hosting site, but...
I'm really puzzled.
Thierry
Hello,
As many, I receive many spams.
Kmail has a 2 filters :
"Filter configuration" and "pop filter configuration"
Which is the difference ?
For some mails, I want to delete them.
This option does'nt seem possible,
only to put them in the trash or another folder,
and deleting them after manually.
So, is it possible to delete these mails without
to put them before in the trash ?
Thanks, regards,
André
Greetings folks;
I have had a loooong list of all caps strings at the top of my filter
list for years. But recently the filter has been changed to apparently
be caseless.
But I've had to pick quite a few messages back out of the spam folder and
put them where they should go by hand.
Then one of those lists is in the runup to a new release, and the subject
line has included the word planning which now is firing on the ANNI rule
so it get moved to thespam folder. As I've played with the filter rules
trying to fix this without knowing it had become case insensitive, I've
been highlighting the message and hitting ctl+j, which is supposed to
apply the filters again, but the messages so treated to the ctl+j are
now being deleted! So I've apparently lost forever, around 10 messages
from a very important to me, list before I started the filter log viewer
to see what was going on.
Can you please put back the case sensitivity?
Cheers, Gene Heskett
