if you create a new user? Still broken there? (broken profile?) Yes...New user did not fix corrupted icon set... [SOLVED] Downloaded latest crystalSVG icon set from kde store downloads as .tar file unpacked and replaced entire set... Fixed it ..must have been corrupted.. Had to switch the new one in and out several times to get all the categories to show up and populate...but working nice now... Danny

I can't really analyze your problem but this is what I know (and do): - I prefer the "KDE Classic Icon Theme" but not some of it's icons (the network icon for instance). So I created my own theme by copying the few icons I wanted from one theme to the other. - So, everytime I install TDE somewhere, I need to transport my Icon set. Which is actually very easy: copy the (modified) directory from /opt/trinity/share/icons (so it would be the Crystalsvg directory for you) to /some/backup/location. In my case it's on a nfs share. after a new install, use konqueror as filemanager (super user mode) to copy that directory in /opt/trinity/share/icons select the correct icon theme in trinity control center. Never has any trouble. So if I were at you place, I'd delete everything in /opt/trinity/share/icons, copy back the icon directories (I can let you grab a copy) and that should do the trick. Thierry I will install one new set and check everything but I'd rather know why than just fix it if I can...tnx Danny

These are the fish I can think of... What does Trinity Control Center say? Can you change the icon theme there? Thierry Ah...you've opened up a symptom.....good...good... Found none of the tde installed icons sets would let me change an icon on the desktop using kdesktop/properties/select-icon But two that had been externally installed worked fine...gnome and adwait Using Trinity Control Center as root it allowed me to remove all other themes except I wanted to try and rescue crystalSVG so I left it and exhaustively compared and investigated...but no obvious issues with permissions or missing pieces. I just wish someone with in-depth knowledge of this issue could tell me where the path or symlink is that tells Select - Icon Kdesktop where to look for those crystalSVG icons... I'm pretty sure if I installed an external downloaded theme say the new crystalSVG it would work...but hate to do that... I even reinstalled tdebase-data-trinity (crystalSVG actual icons) tdeartwork (all the others except mono) tde-icons-mono-trinity (monochrome) And it puts them all back but the system still cannot find them... When you go to desktop and have the system set for any of the tde installed themes now and you pick out an icon on the desktop you select properties and then click on that icon boom lala land....cursor forever...even let it run overnight... but if you switch to and externally installed theme it goes right to the different locations...and shows those icons for you to visually select and change as you wish In all folders /actions /animations /apps /categories /devices /emblems etc....etc....etc...

ExeGnu TDE on a Lenovo G400 ThinkPad

Hello, I installed from the most recent USB image. To use WiFi, does it need Ndiswrapper, or some other driver? Apparently Lenovo provides only Windows drivers. Robert

VLC can't resize to fit screen
by Dan Youngquist 05 Mar '18

05 Mar '18

Hi all, Antix 17 (Debian Stretch), TDE 14.0.5. Normally if a video is larger than the screen, VLC resizes it to fit. It worked correctly on this machine running Wheezy, as well as on several other systems. But now it doesn't resize, it shows the video at full resolution and the VLC window runs off the edge of the screen. Is there a fix for this? Thanks. -- PGP key: http://homestead-products.com/pubkey.htm

Latest Slackware instructions are for 13.1. I guess this should be reported as a bug?
by Brian Durant 02 Mar '18

02 Mar '18

Slackware is at version 14.2, but the latest instructions for installing Trinity on Slackware is 13.1. I understand the limited resources issue, but I guess this should still be reported as a bug. I am considering doing a Slackware or Salix OS (Slackware based) install (I have yet to decide), and I would consider it useful that instructions are also included as to how to install Trinity as the only DE from a cli Slackware install.

Slax with Trinity
by Glen Cunningham 01 Mar '18

01 Mar '18

Slax with Trinity <https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Slax_with_Trinity> is a brilliant concept, however I cannot get the "Persistant Changes" mode to work. What am I doing wrong? Is there a simple tweak to enable this, for me, essential feature? Thanks, Glen
