Hello
I'm testing openSUSE 15 and trinity. I copy my kde 3.5
profile in trinity and all my folders are displayed on my
desktop.I check the trinity config, but I have not found
where there is an option for this. Have you an idea ?

Hi All,
Sometimes you should leave well enough alone…

So, I changed my theme to one of the ones installed, but every theme tested so
far sets the alternating row colors so dark it’s unreadable. This is
affecting Konqueror, KMail, and probably a lot more. I’m trying to set the
alternating row color to something like the selected text color. See
attached.
The theme also keeps moving the Panel from the bottom to the left, even when
the Panel is locked at the bottom.
I found, and read, the instructions on how to make/modify a new theme, which
I’ve done. But, I can’t seem to find where in ‘Customize your theme:’ to
change these two settings:
- Where do you set: the alternating row colors?
- Where do you set: where the Panel defaults to?
Thanks,
Michael
PS: Konqueror throws a fit trying to load the TDE themes website,
https://store.kde.org/ , “script causing TDEHTML to freeze.” Works fine in
Firefox.
In Ubuntu/TDE there is a `kate` and a `kate-trinity`.
However, there is no `kwrite-trinity`.
I'm always afraid to install some k-something-or-the-other` --
without a -trinity suffix and end up thereby with a $##t-pot-full
of KDE 4 or KDE 5 crap.
That happened to me several Ubuntu's ago....
It appears the `kwrite` I just installed runs Just Fine in TDE 14.0.5
How is a person to know what to install besides doing
an `apt-cache search k-something-or-the-other` for every kabc...xyz?
Even more confusion.....
I just (apt-get) installed kiconedit-trinty and khexedit-trinity.
After the install was finished there was no kiconedit:
$ kiconedit
The program 'kiconedit' is currently not installed.
You can install it by typing: sudo apt install kiconedit
huh?!?!?
But, I did find that there was a `tdeiconedit`.
So now I believe I will put a symlink for `kiconedit` in my
$HOME/bin/...
I do not believe I wanted to install simple 'kiconedit'......
However, khexedit was installed Just Fine.

Hey All,
I've added a couple sections to
https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Tips_And_Tricks . Looking for more methods
for ‘Un-Bogging down an Older system.’
If you don’t have Wiki access, post to the list and I’ll add it for you
(sometime next week...).
Best,
Michael
I am building a new workstation -- running Ubuntu 16.04 -- to
replace an old and failing workstation. I used the TDE ISO
to get 'things' started.
Several of my programs are displaying in a weird window format.
(I am not sure if attachments are permitted, but)
Attached are a couple of examples
Display_OK.png
--- is a zenity --info --title=Display_OK --text="Hello World"
running on my "failing" workstation.
Display_snafu.png
--- is the same zenity --info --title=Display_OK --text="Hello World"
running on the new workstation.
Bluefish_snafu.png
--- is bluefish running on the new workstation.
I see the same for the AisleRiot solitaire program.
No doubt it is something "simple", but nothing comes to mind.
Thanks in advance,
Jonesy

Greetings all;
Still on wheezy.
Sometime in the last 3-4 days, maybe not this mornings update, I needed
to get some stuff out of my camera today, which I normally do with
digicam.
Chaseing the rodent up the menu list popup, I stop at graphics, expecting
a lengthy popup. Wait, but nothing.
Didn't that use to be kbuildcycoca or similar to restore that stuffs?
On further poking at this yellowjackets nest with kmenuedit, I find its
all there, but buried an extra level deep, and does not show that extra
level depth with a line item in the menu itself. Call up the kmenuedit
handbook and look up copy/paste intending to move it all back to where
it belongs, but theres no reaction to highlighting the extra level and
pressing control+c, then moving back and highlighting the top level menu
where it belongs and pressing control+V. No user feedback whatsoever.
So I decide to quit that as its obviously broken. BUT! When I quit, it
updates everything. So I go back to the graphics line, and voila! Its
all back where it belongs.
I remember it used to do that, but while you were adjusting stuff so you
could see the results in a few seconds. When did it start waiting until
you quit? Bad dog, no biscuit.

Hi All,
Based upon many valuable comments and shared thoughts from this list, I’m find
myself in the anti systemd group.
With this pretty much being the best, non-biased, comparison of Debian (or any
systemd OS) and Devuan (e.g. a non systemd OS) that I found to solidify my
opinions on systemd:
https://blog.ungleich.ch/en-us/cms/blog/2017/12/10/the-importance-of-devuan/
Do Note: The author does use an [overly] dramatic introduction, so please do
read all 878 words of his article. I believe you’ll find the considerations
his conclusion brings up well worth the 5-10 minutes of your time it takes to
get there.
And then Bill commented in another thread:

Bill might this solve your issue(s)?
Now finally my question(s)... :)
- Is anyone using Devuan 2.0.0 (ASCII) w/ TDE installed?
- - If so any issues?
Ah, never mind the next Q:
“Devuan package repositories are exclusive. Other repositories, including
Debian’s, should NOT be used directly.”
- Can external (deb?/ppa?) packages be added to Devuan similar to Ubuntu?
- - Would you use the corresponding Debian release?
Example:
> # cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/opera-stable.list
> # This file makes sure that Opera Browser is kept up-to-date
> # as part of regular system upgrades
>
> deb https://deb.opera.com/opera-stable/ stable non-free #Opera Browser
(final releases)
- So the only choice for Opera, LibreOffice, etc., is to manually install from
a downloaded .deb?
Okay, last question...
From the standpoint of wanting the leanest system possible with only software
I’ve specifically installed:
- Would it make the most sense to install the Exe GNU/Linux above, then
upgrade in place to Devuan 2 and then TDE R14.0.5?
- Or is there a way to install just a bare bones, console only Devuan?
I do the second with dedicated servers under CentOS 6 all the time, but it’s
the hosting firm that’s doing the initial system build to ‘base’ (and of
course each likes to call it a different name, ‘base,’ ‘bare,’ ‘init’), which
has much less overhead than the published RH/CentOS ‘minimal’ install
profile. So, I’m guessing it can be done, but the Devuan website doesn’t
have much beyond how to do a ‘full’ install.
If the second method is the way to go, does anyone have a favorite write up on
how it’s done with Debian I can use to guide me through doing the same with
Devuan?
Best and Thanks!
Michel

Hello,
I have been running this distro for a while now, but after some months became
puzzled over why I didn't receive any single update. I found out that
Devuan's Update and Security repos were not added anywhere; after adding them
the updates tickled in. Is this an oversight?
Hi people
Trying to build kcpload from srpm but I get this error.
automake 1.6.1 is installed. So I'm confused by the error.
tde requires automake 1.6.1 or newer
make: *** [admin/Makefile.common.10: cvs] Error 1
Building on pclinuxos x86 64.
Thanks in advance,
Kate
This is on Kubuntu 18.04. Everything on the Monitor & Display Power Management
tab is grayed out, so power save is stuck at 10 minutes. What package(s) would
be missing to cause this?
