KMix not controlling volume / Konsole not beeping (MX-18 Linux)

by Michael

Hi All, - TDE - MX-18 Linux (Debian 9 "stretch") - GTX 1060 (NVidia) - ASUS monitor (VP228he), connected through HDMI Ref: https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=48235 I finally got sounds working but... - The applet KMix doesn’t change the volume no matter which option I select within it. - Konsole will play a test sound for the ‘Bell emitted within a visible session’ but it doesn’t play the sound (or any other it seems) when it should (e.g. hit ‘Backspace’ at empty prompt). - When TCC restarts the sound server all 'The Window Manager' sounds no longer work. 'The Window Manager' sounds seem to be coming from the MX’s Settings Manager>System Sounds not TDE. [1] Based upon the last item, I’m guessing TDE and MX are fighting over who’s managing sound? Just a guess, but does anyone have a hint on what to look at to get TDE back in control? The ‘Ref:’ above has ‘aplay -l’ and other details. Thanks, Michael [1] https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?f=104&t=48790

Where, in wheezy, do I make kopnqeror the default browzer?

by Gene Heskett

I'd like to make it the default, but everytime I click a link in konqueror, it launches anothercopy of mozilla. So how do I make konqueror the default?

Printing multiple copies

by deloptes

Hi, can some one confirm that you can print multiple copies of a PDF document with kpdf? I just tried to print 4 copies, but the printer is printing only one. I have HP M402dn on a cups server. I don't recall when I printed multiple copies or even if I have done so. thanks and regards

kedit , kate , konqueror, modify files on remote computer

by andre_debian＠numericable.fr

Hello, I posted some months ago this problem : When I want to modify some files with Konqueror and kedit, from a remote computer server on my local computer (sftp), the file is downloaded in a tmp trinity directory. When it is saved, I have to upload it to the server. This is a waste of time, if I must modify many files. If I use "kate" (instead kedit), I dont'have this problem. Strange, on my laptop, with * strictly * the same configuration than my workplace computer, kedit saves directly the files on the remote server. Not so important, kate is good, it's just to understand. Happy day, André

Not quite on topic for the original post, but a comment on that comment: There is one respect where, in my opinion, KEdit is much better than KWrite. If you are jotting down a lot of notes on something, and using soft word wrap, and you want to scan through the file, looking for something, by dragging the scroll bar up or down, KWrite has a disconcerting behaviour such that as you drag, the top of each paragraph jumps to the top of the text area, making it very uncomfortable to scan through the file. KEdit does not have that problem, and behaves perfectly smoothly as you drag the scroll bar up and down. For that reason, I always use KEdit for jotting down a lot of informal notes on something, and it's great for that purpose. But I always use KWrite for coding. I remember that KDE 3 had a bug such that turning off the cursor blinking in Qt3 control did not stop the cursor blinking in KEdit. That was such a serious problem that I had to stop using KEdit in KDE 3. That bug has been fixed in Trinity, and the fix is much appreciated.

by Michael

Okay, I should go try to look this up, but, is there a meta package(s) or something that will install every TDE application that exists? Best, Michael

A radical change in progress dialogs.

by Curt Howland

Please forgive the attachments. After the latest update, my Debian stable install of TDE had a complete change in progress dialog. Since I have more than one system with TDE, I was able to get a screenshot of what progress dialogs used to look like, the "graphical" one, and what they look like now, the "text" one. Did I miss an announcement? Anyone else had this problem? Curt-

[OT] Reason for all non-user program’s priority being 0?

by Michael

Hi All, Stupid question time, and really completely off topic for this group, but my search-fu didn't really find anything, and there’s a good chance someone here knows, so... Why is almost every non-user program’s priority 0 (nice at -20)? Instead of them having priorities scattered based upon system importance say between 0 and 5? Logically it just doesn’t seem that basically every priority in Nix should be either 0 (system app) or 20 (user app). Just a dumb question that’s been in the back of my brain for years. Best, Michael
