problems configuring kicker
by dep 25 Jun '19

25 Jun '19

hi, everybody . . . i've encountered a weirdness as i try to arrange some icons on my kicker. i can right click and move them, but kicker behaves as if a new icon is being added instead of an old one being moved. the old one moves well enough, but everything on the right -- task list, spelling applet, calendar, gets squashed farther to the right. so i have blank space in the icon section and the applets and such are all squashed together. so, is there a configuration option that lets me drag everything back to where it should be? thanks very much. -- dep Some pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album

The tray icon only shows up when you use Konqueror (or any TDE app?) to go to a URL requiring a password. The first visit should start a remember/wallet dialog. If it doesn't, the subsystem needs to be enabled (yours is). Nothing else needs to be configured. > Default Wallet=Peter I've never set this, the default is empty (kdewallet.kwl VS Peter.kwl?).

changing gnome app font sizes from within tde
by dep 22 Jun '19

22 Jun '19

well, i've been looking at this for awhile now and i cannot find any way to change font sizes for menus and such for a gnome application while i'm running it under tde. there are gnome system defaults someplace, but i'd just as soon not install all of gnome just to be able to change the size of the letters in an application. is there an equivalent to kcontrol for the gtk side of things? -- dep Some pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album

network-manager-tde ?
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 22 Jun '19

22 Jun '19

Hi all! Now that wicd decided to not be able to set up my wifi any more, I thoght I might use network-manager + network-manager-tde. As I hve not had this thig running for ~ 5 years, I just tried it out. But I did not get far, the settings dialog did not allow me to save setting. So I ask: has anybody used network-manager-tde in recent times and knows if it works? Nik -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA, CIA ...

You can also try using ~/.gtkrc* whatever it's called now (this is what I did). Additional stuff from DUH internet 1 Modify the file ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini according to your wishes for your specific application (i.e. font, font-size, theme, etc.). Save it under ~/.config/somewhereelse/gtk-3.0.

digikam is trying to kill me and my computer
by dep 20 Jun '19

20 Jun '19

greets, folks . . . for more than a decade i've gone happily along, making pictures for a living, sorting them with a gnome application called gthumb (which meshes nicely with the gimp) and being generally happy. then the gnome people did what gnome people do: they improved gthumb to the point where it's utterly useless. they removed menus and scrollbars and committed other atrocities. so i thought i'd bite the bullet and try digikam, which is in many respects too much, just too much. it tries to do things that i do not want done. it insists on running a full inventory of all my pictures all the time -- gthumb was good about not doing this until it was asked to -- and generally behaves as if i'm a 14-year-old who wants to keep track of his million selfies. grrr. but i can live with that and i feel confident that after spending some time with it i can turn off much of the stuff i don't like and make it into something potentially more useful than gthumb was when it was useful, about one major version ago. but there's a problem: when i use digikam-trinity (0.9.6) within a few minutes i can hear my computer's fans screaming and when i run top i see that it's consuming more than 100 percent. any ideas how i can fix this or at least troubleshoot it? tia. -- dep Some pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album

Tdewallet
by phiebie＠drei.at 20 Jun '19

20 Jun '19

Debian Buster uptodate and with systemd. tdewalletmanager-trinity_4%3a14.0.7~pre8-0debian10.0.0+4~a The walletmanager does not start automatically, when TDE is started. Starting it manually with [tdewalletmanager --tdewalletd] yields an icon in the taskbar, the wallets however never get opened not to speak of, that they stay completely empty. The tdewalletrc contains: [ ] [Wallet] Close When Idle=false Close on Screensaver=false Default Wallet=Peter Enabled=true First Use=false Idle Timeout=10 Launch Manager=true Leave Manager Open=false Leave Open=false Prompt on Open=true Use One Wallet=true [ ] Where should I look for a misconfiguration or wrong/insufficient permissions? Tks and regards.

kmail crashing now unusable
by Gene Heskett 20 Jun '19

20 Jun '19

Greetings; Over the last several days, kmail has gotten so unstable its not usable. Now tdewallet has also died, I have submitted 20+ crash reports, no reply, and I've no clue if it will even send this message. How about some help or an acnowlegement of the problem. I've rebooted, even re-installed all of kmail to no avail. I've also run memtest about 3 full cycles, no errors.
