just full of problems this week

for some reason, after having worked as i wanted it to work for a very long time, clicking on a link in email no longer brings up opera or firefox but instead konqueror. konqueror is not my very favorite (as a browser). I cannot figure out why it is suddenly doing this. i've moved it to bottom in all the html file associations, but there it is. is there some place else i should make a change? firefox reports, as it should, that it is my default browser. tia. dep Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com/) Secure Email.

Hi, With a CentOS minimal installation the tde session doesn't start. Installing over gnome (gdm) or mate (lightdm) it works. Any tips?

quoth Felix Miata: |xorg is a meta-package. You should be able to remove it without affecting TDE or |Xorg operation. So I can safely go ahead and let all the stuff get deleted and it won't affect the operation of TDE? (The list I posted earlier?) What puzzles me is why none of this stuff appears in autoremove or remove lists otherwise. dep Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com/) Secure Email. Because privacy matters.

getting trinity onto stretch
by dep 01 May '18

01 May '18

my little project thinkpad x200 now sports debian stretch and X; what it doesn't have is TDE. my line in /etc/apt/sources.list is: deb http://mirror.xcer.cz/trinity-sb /debian stretch deps-r14 main-r14 (and of course the deb-src line as well.) i've imported the gpg key apparently uneventfully. running apt-get update seems to do as it should, though it throws an "ign" for each of the trinity indices (i didn't follow it closely the first time i ran it, so this isn't necessarily unexpected). but sudo apt-get install tde-trinity renders an unable to find package error. aptitude likewise says it can't find tde-trinity. i'm clearly erring somewhere, but do not know where. how do i get the preliminary stable build onto the machine? thanks in advance. dep Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com/) Secure Email.

tde-debian live/install cds?
by dep 30 Apr '18

30 Apr '18

to test some of the things offered here the last couple of days i just now tried on my testbed thinkpad laptop to upgrade from ubuntu-14.04 to 16.04 by changinf all the references in sources.list from "trusty" to "xenial." then did an apt-get dist-upgrade. the result isn't pretty. in fact, it won't even boot, though it makes an heroic effort. i figured that inasmuch as i'm going to have to do something fairly drastic now anyway, i'd switch to a current debian with tde -- having extra desktops around is just annoying. but looking on the liveCDs page i see ubuntu and PCLOS and some others, but no debian. does anyone here know of current debian-tde live CDs anyplace? thanks! dep Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com/) Secure Email.

TDE setting up the environment
by Oleg Levenets 30 Apr '18

30 Apr '18

Hi, I have two questions. First: how can I enable scrolling text in tde console using the mouse wheel? I did not find the necessary parameters in the configuration. The second question: I would like to change the display of the date and time in the system tray. By default, the left is the time, on the right is the date, how can I change their places best regards, Oleg Levenets.

(How) Can I use a markdown parser in Konqueror?
by Leslie Turriff 30 Apr '18

30 Apr '18

It seems that markdown has become the new darling of the technical writers. Is there a markup parser that's compatible with Konqueror? Would it have to be written in JavaScript, or can other languages be made to work? I see that the original markdown parser was written in perl. If there is such an animal that will work with Konqueror, how does one install it? Leslie

said deloptes: |You need to be more explicit, there re, or were, 2 different versions of |TDE, I jumped straight to R14.0.0.1 originally, and never looked back, |currently at R14.0.5. So I don't recall the other version offered. okay, let's take it from the top. i ran kde from the last beta before kde 1.0, almost 20 years ago. beginning with 4.0, the kde project went in my estimation all flaky, so i stuck with 3.5.x until i was happy to learn of tde, which i have used since then in its verious versions. i am currently running tde 14.0.5 atop ubuntu 14.04. [much deletia] i'm glad you have kmail working as you like. i do, too. |What does this protonmail do that makes it so much more desirable? it's not either/or. protonmail is a secure mail service, not a mail client. you can learn about it if you like at protonmail.com. thing is, access to protonmail in linux is currently via a secure web interface (or an unofficial desktop app that is really a secure browser dedicated to protonmail). for windows and mac there is a thing called protonmail bridge. it encrypts the mail on the local machine before sending it, and decrypts it upon receipt, allowing more traditional mail clients to send and receive mail through protonmail. there is currently a beta, available only from protonmail, of the bridge for linux. that is what i am trying to install, so i can continue to use kmail, as i have for nearly two decades. part of the reason for this is a change of the terms of use by my isp a week ago, wherein they announced that they would be combing through my email, pictures, and everything else in search of things useful to them. as a reporter and photographer for a living, i found this unacceptable. hence protonmail and hence my desire to make it work with kmail. dep Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com/) Secure Email.

said Dr. Nikolaus Klepp: |The point of protinmail - as I see it - was an email address, that could not be associated | with a real person. But protonmail changed the initial user authentication to require a | handy or some other identifyable device, so the main purpose is gone. not necessarily. while two-factor authentication is offered, it is not required. |But what I miss in kamil+PGPG is an encrypted mail-subject, e.g "Subject: [trinity-users] | Re: more re. tde and qt5" beeing replaced by a random string, which gets replaced on the | receiver side with an embedded subject from within the encrypted mail. Reason is, that a | lot of users use a subject that tells a lot about the mail content, at least enough to let it be | sorted in "interesting" or "junk". that's the point, and why setting it up to work with kmail requires an intervening application, the protonmail bridge. normally one would use the protonmail web interface -- essentially webmail -- which is entirely encrypted, or a special application that seems to be little more than a one-site secure browser connected to the protonmail site. (for linux: https://github.com/protonmail-desktop/application) but to use it with kmail or another mail client one needs to employ the bridge application, which encrypts before sending and decrypts upon receipt, on which a regular mail client can be hitched. (details here:https://protonmail.com/support/knowledge-base/third-party-email-client…) in each case, as i understand it absolutely everything is encrypted: subject, sender, recipient, the works. the advantage to two-factor encryption in the service is of course added security should someone learn or guess your password but also the service's claim that with two-factor authentication not even the owners of protonmail can read your mail. i should mention that they offer a free version, which gives you a protonmail.com email address and limits your storage to 500 mb and each user to 150 email messages per day. though some features -- using your own domain, use of protonmail bridge -- are restricted to paid accounts, the cheapest of which is € 48.00 per year. and i think i've carried the forum terribly off-topic. i am not, btw, a protonmail salesman! dep Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com/) Secure Email.
