I have a notebook that I connect to my school beamer with a HDMI cable.
In Trinity Control Center I can see both my laptop screen and the HDMI screen.
I cannot use it if I don't "extend the desktop" to it, but then all my apps
open stretched overt the two and control is very difficult.
I can set the external screen to the same resolution as the internal, but
there is no option to just mirror the internal screen on the external.
Am I missing some black magic?

Good day everyone,
is anybody using digikam to edit images? I encountered this bug recently, that
digikam fails with an only general error message "Failed to save file" when I
try to save an image file in PNG format. It is reproducible like this:
1. start digikam
2. open any image to edit
3. save as: select PNG file
--> failure
Exspected behavior:
3. save as: should save the converted to PNG format image file
Other formats seem to work well, I have tried .jpg, .jp2
In ~/.xsession-errors there are some message which may be related:
Opening the image file into the editor:
TQFile::open: No file name specified
TQFile::open: No file name specified
Exif Qt::Orientation: 1
Saving:
TQFile::open: No file name specified
TQFile::open: No file name specified
JPEG image preview size: (1280 x 720) pixels - 80124 bytes
libpng error: known incorrect sRGB profile
digikam: WARNING: error saving image '/home/user/xyz/lnw39a.digikamtempfile.tmp
This tmp file is created with zero size and vanishes after clicking ok in the
dialog with the error message.
Searching the greatest database of all ages taught me that the libpng error
message is commonly known and that something had been changed in handling PNG
format which I don't understand really, but my guess is that the interaction of
digikam with libpng might be affected.
System information:
TDE R14.0.5 (PSB)
digikam 0.9.6 using PNG library version 1.6.28
Devuan ascii
Before I try to find out more and/or create a bug report I'd like to ask if
anyone has seen this error and knows what to do about it. Any ideas and hints
welcome.
Kind regards,
Stefan
Dear List,
Congrats for the release R14.0.5.
I'd like to build it from sources but I coudn'd find any tarball.
Is there any official repository with the latest release?
Thanks

hi, everybody!
i'm using kmail-tde via the protonmail bridge beta for email, and i've
encountered a puzzling issue.
when i send a message with an attachment, the attachment arrives but the
message space is labeled "Empty Message." this is problematic for a number
of reasons.
of course i first got in touch with the protonmail people, and we went
through a few tests -- plain text vs. html and so on -- and no joy.
they've pointed out that the only linux client they support, anyway, is
thunderbird, so for everything else we're on our own. (i do not like
thunderbird and like it even less for its poor support of maildir.)
looking in kmail configuration, the lone reference i see for attachments
(beside turning on the flag to tell me i used the word "attached" without
attaching anything) is some sort of outlook mode, which when checked
flings a warning of Very Bad Things if i use it. (fwiw, protonmail bridge
does support outlook.)
before i check the box, anybody know what's going on with the attachments
sending but the messagfs not? btw, they show up just fine in the sent-mail
directory.
tia.

somebody here knows the correct answer to this: i installed a meta-package
that brought in a bunch of stuff. turns out, i don't like it and want to
remove it and all its demonspawn. is there a command that uses the
meta-package to uninstall what it installed?
thanks.

Is something wrong with the key server? I can't get the key from the
keyserver. Anyone have a copy of the public key they can send me?

When I accidentaly roll my mouse wheel when the pointer is over the desktop
pager, it changes desktop (I suppose it's the intended behaviour).
In the pager's option there is a checkbox about changing desktop with the
wheel when the pointer is over the desktop background (and it works).
Is there a setiing to block this wheel beaviour also on the page?

I see that the new release of Trinity is now available (Congrats!), and I'm
thinking of replacing OpenSuSE KDE3 with it once again, but I have a question
first:
In OpenSuSE's KDE3 Konqueror, Image View is available in addition to
Photobook, whereas, IIRC, Trinity Konqueror only has Photobook, which I find
much less friendly. Is there a way for me to get Image View in the Trinity
version of Konqueror?

Hi everyone, who is currently using Preliminary Stable Builds repository
as you have surely noticed, the final R14.0.5 was released. At this time
packages in Preliminary Stable Builds (PSB) repository and official
R14.0.5 are both based on an identical source packages.
If you used the PSB only temporarily, you can now switch to official
repository. This is the best time because here are waiting updates to
upload into PSB. I suppose the first uploads will be done in early
September. You have been warned ;)
If you are using PSB deliberately, you can look forward to that soon will
launch the first upload of packages for the new target R14.0.6. We will
be very happy if you help us in testing the upcoming release.
Thank you for your attention :)
