So, doing a little research I find that the Planet Computing Gemini is
apparently shipped with Debian Stretch. Here's their first video demo from
a couple of months ago:
https://vimeo.com/239095559
It illustrates dual boot, a terminal session, Firefox running (very tiny, I
think -- they could have done themselves a favor by making it larger), and
LibreOffice running. All ran pretty quickly.
Especially pleasing to me is that the GIMP is shown running in this story:
https://liliputing.com/2017/11/crowdfunded-gemini-pda-mini-laptop-ship-date…
There is apparently also a Linux on Android feature which allows the
running of Linux applications from within an Android boot, with a common
clipboard and such. What isn't clear is the extent to which other
resources can be shared -- it's a pain with systems like Virtual Box,
though a lot can be shared even with that -- or, really, how the running
of Linux applications works. (There was a way to run Android applications
on the Blackberry Playbook, which was RIM's answer to calls for
applications, but it kind of sucked, like the Mirrors ports of Windows
applications to OS/2.)
Much to be learned, but promising so far. I see no reason why TDE won't
work perfectly on this little thing. It would need, I suppose, some
userspace tweaking of fonts and icon size and such, but I expect it to
work, and happy day when it does!
(If my posting about this is unwanted or off-topic, let me know and I'll
cease.)

Hi,
I'm new to trinity and have nearly no glue of cmake. I want to build
tdelibs w/o cups. How can I achieve this? What is the correct option I
have to give to cmake to disable cups and/or other features?
Thanks
Kai

I added a JOB_NUM = "- j3" entry to my tdebase.SlackBuild for my
core2duo cpu and the package was compiled without errors. It's
strange, because this setting was already set in my global
configuration file for the TDE assembly script...
Maybe the logs will help?
thanks for the answer! command from builg.log
cd /tmp/build/tmp-tdebase/build/tdm/backend && perl -w
/tmp/build/tmp-tdebase/tdebase/tdm/confproc.pl
/tmp/build/tmp-tdebase/tdebase/tdm/config.def config.ci
really creates this file. Unfortunately I'm not a programmer, maybe
generated config.ci help to understand what's wrong?
Hi,
when i compile a tdebase package on my Slackware64-current i get a
compilation error:
[ 81%] Building C object tdm/kfrontend/CMakeFiles/tdm_greet.dir/tdm_greet.c.o
In file included from
/tmp/build/tmp-tdebase/tdebase/tdm/kfrontend/tdm_greet.c:28:0:

error: config.ci: No such file or directory
#include <config.ci> /* for the HAVE_VTS define */
^~~~~~~~~~~
the compilation is interrupted.
make[2]: *** [tdm/kfrontend/CMakeFiles/tdm_greet.dir/build.make:103:

make: *** [Makefile:130: all] Error 2
while there are no errors on Slackware x86-current. In my message i
attached my tdebase_configure.log, maybe this will help solve the
problem.
Hi.
I have "removable media" selected to show up as desktop icons, and for
the most part memory sticks do so. I've noticed that some external
drives don't, however. As soon a they're mounted, the icon vanishes
from the desktop.
If it happened with all of them, or none of them, I'd understand. What
doesn't make sense is that it's seemingly random. I have 1-TB USB
drives that vanish, and seemingly identical drives which remain
visible.
Am I just late for the party and this has been known forever?

Does anyone know of a weather-related superkaramba theme that works with TDE?
In fact, that leads to a more general question: where can I find a library of
superkaramba themes that actually work with TDE?

Where is the best place for me to ask for help in writing a non-trivial
(python) superkaramba theme?
In particular, I'm having trouble understanding how to run the same theme
multiple times and have each widget behave correctly. (I can see entries in
the multiple ~/.superkaramba/<theme>-<n>.rc files, but I'm not sure what they
all mean and would like to pick someone's brain on that and other issues
related to what happens when running the same theme multiple times
simultaneously.)

Hi,
*** I posted it one month ago, but it quite fell under the radar, or there is simply zero interest for it. Anyway, I post it again ***
After a little pause of about 2 years, I decided to put together a brand new version on my PCLinuxOS TDE remaster.
This new new version is a 64 bit system, with TDE 14.0.4, a 4.12.x kernel and no systemd.
It has an appearance similar to Plasma 5, but with TDE workflow and apps.
