What's your fav FS and why?
by BorgLabs - Kate Draven 05 Jul '19

05 Jul '19

Hello me lovely drones. My last question regarding what kernel version to use was so enlightening (I thank everyone who replied), so educational that I've decided to ask another question. I'm currently using JFS. It's fast, reliable and easy to repair. On the rare occasion (once in 20 years) were I wasn't able to fix the fs (after a hard drive death rattle), I was able to mount it as a RO fs and recover the data with a simple copy and paste (later rsync and luckbackup). However jfs has it's limits for example it can't be resized, something I needed to a do a few times. Which meant backing up the drive, reformatting and restoring said backups. So... July's question... What's your fav FS and why? I thank everyone in advance and look forward to assimilating your brainz (ooh a SciFi / Zombie mix there). Kate AKA The Borg Queen. PS If you think about it, the Borg are sort of "Techno Zombies".

Is someone using the desktop as handsfree device?
by deloptes 05 Jul '19

Hi, I was just wondering if someone here is using the TDE as handsfree device? I just did a PoC using dbus to do some test phone calls from and to TDE connected via BT to the mobile. Has the time come to revive the kmobile stuff (well at least the GUI)? thanks and regards

"Switch off" monitor problem.
by Γιώργος Κωστόπουλος 03 Jul '19

03 Jul '19

Hi! :-) I just installed TDE on a computer with Devuan stable already on it (through Trinity repositories for Debian based systems). I know this is an "as-is" release and Devuan is NOT officially supported for this version. Having said that, I have a problem switching my monitor off through software. At Configure KDesktop -> Display -> Power Control -> "Enable display..." is activated, but none of these 3 modes works. Also, giving from konsole "xset dpms force off", also fails. All the above, they're just activating the screensaver. Keeping always in mind, that this Devuan version is NOT supported, does someone have any hint on the above issue? TIA!!! :-) Giorgos.

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 21 Jun '19

21 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 21 Jun '19

21 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. Run the application with XDG_CONFIG_HOME=$HOME/.config/somewhereelse your-application https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/change-font-size-fo… Good luck Kate
