desktop backdround
by dave 30 Apr '17

30 Apr '17

All of a sudden one of my desktops changed to what looks like the Unity display. Right click on desktop only shows new folder and organize by name.If I add a desktop it switches to new desktop, while the other desktop reverts back to TDE. If I delete the new desktop , the (unity) desktop goes back to prior DT. I can't seem to make it permanently gone. Dave

When this system is replaced, which graphics card should I get? I am NOT a heavy user of the video capabilities of any card, just want something that Just Works. :-) -- Peter Laws, BS, MRCP / N5UWY National Weather Center / Network Operations Center University of Oklahoma Information Technology plaws(a)ou.edu

Reminder: TDE Fundraiser
by Timothy Pearson 25 Apr '17

25 Apr '17

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA224 All, Just a quick reminder that our yearly fundraiser is under way. So far results have been somewhat disappointing, so I'd like to ask: what would you (reasonably) like to see us do before contributing a little something to the project? Thanks!

Konsole issue
by Peter Laws 24 Apr '17

24 Apr '17

Hello. After being on Ubuntu 14.1 LTS for years, I tried to update to 16.1. Install media Would. Not. See. workstation's RAID so switched to CentOS 7 (all my production stuff uses that anyway). Immediately installed TDE, of course, 14.04 I think. Two issues with Konsole, possibly related to the video driver (card is an "AMD FirePro V4900" with their drivers). First is that it seems to have trouble rendering the _ (underbar) character. No problem leaving random underbars on the screen as text advances, but can't seem to put them in the right spot. This is most noticeable on the last line of a screen full of text. Second, and much more annoying is that when I start Chrome (not my primary browser but necessary for some sites), Konsole becomes very sluggish. Not 2400-baud modem slow, but that was the first thing I thought of. Maybe more like 9600 ... or 14.4 ... Ideas? I do run yum update regularly. -- Peter Laws, BS, MRCP / N5UWY National Weather Center / Network Operations Center University of Oklahoma Information Technology plaws(a)ou.edu

TDE Fundraiser
by Timothy Pearson 23 Apr '17

23 Apr '17

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA224 All, It's that time of year again! As we look toward the release of Debian Stretch and another version of TDE, I'd like to ask for your continued support to help keep TDE online. This year I'm going to try something new. If you donate $40 to TDE [1], I will allow 2 months access to the nightly build repositories that now include Debian Stretch and Raspbian Jessie. Additionally, I'd like those who donate at this level to nominate two bugs that I will personally look into (excepting those relating to support for Wayland, Qt4/Qt5, or Webkit). This way your donations have a direct and positive effect on TDE itself, and TDE can continue to exist in its current form. Personally I would suggest the LibreOffice integration bug or possibly an update of the GTK3 theme engine to fix the rendering bugs as potential candidates, but in the end it's up to you! A full listing of open bugs is available here: http://bugs.trinitydesktop.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=__open__&content=&no_… As always, thank you for your support and continued feedback -- we couldn't develop TDE without it!

konqueror can not read directories named ##xxxxxx
by kanenas＠hawaii.rr.com 18 Apr '17

18 Apr '17

Running the latest 14 tde on the latest debian Jessie. Had a manual backup and in it i had two directories with their names being ##00bla1 and ##00bla2. When i plugged that drive thru a usb port, opening the partition with conqueror resulted in useless recursive openings of the two directories, nothing readable. After i opened the same partition with thunar file manager i was able to see both files starting with ##00, then i was able to graphically change the names of the directories (in thunar), and, after ## was removed from the very front of the name directory, the directories became visible and accessible in conqueror. should it be this way? d.

kmenu: focus always in search field after first invocation
by Stefan Krusche 13 Apr '17

13 Apr '17

Hello, when I start kmenu the focus is not in the search field as I remember it having been since long and as it is in a newly created user account. That is the behavior I'd like to have to be able to directly utilize the incremental search feature to jump to a certain menu entry by just typing some characters. Problem: in my current long time user account every second and following time I invoke kmenu the focus is _in_ the search field so I have to first push arrow up or down to get the cursor out of it to directly jump to menu entries by just typing characters. I couldn't find any configuration for that. Any ideas what I could do or try? Regards, Stefan
