Greetings to the tde-r14.0.4 kmail experts;
One of the things that is rather glaringly not addressed in the docs on
kmail that are easily read from a click on the help pulldown, is any
info on how to control kmails functioning via dbus commands.
I've been using dbus to send it a get new mail cmd for years, using
a command line someone gave me:
/usr/bin/qdbus org.kde.kmail /KMail org.kde.kmail.kmail.checkMail
but since my sa-learn scripts also reach into kmail's database and move
files once sa-learn (-ham or -spam) has done its thing, it would be
easier on kmails sanity if I could send it a rebuild index command on
the two directory's mucked with.
man qdbus looks helpfull, but says that org.kde.kmail does not exist when
I attempt to query it using the above command or variations of it. I
would assume that
$>/usr/bin/qdbus org.kde.kmail /KMail
would return a whats available list, but doesn't. All I can get is:
gene@coyote:~$ qdbus -service org.kde.kmail /KMail
Service 'org.kde.kmail' does not exist.
gene@coyote:~$ qdbus org.kde.kmail /KMail
Service 'org.kde.kmail' does not exist.
gene@coyote:~$ qdbus org.kde.kmail
Service 'org.kde.kmail' does not exist.
And yet the first sample command above works and has been working since
dcop was deprecated somewhere back up the timeline quite a few years
ago.
Is there such a doc someplace? Or am I miss-reading the qdbus man page.
A simple qdbus[enter] returns only this:
gene@coyote:~$ qdbus
:1.0
org.kde.kcalc-6112
:1.1
org.xfce.Terminal4
:1.2
:1.3
org.gtk.vfs.Daemon
:1.4
:1.6
org.freedesktop.DBus
And yet a command sent to org.kde.kmail works a treat. So how is that
command getting there, because it works, and has been working for years.
Me goes off to Wallies to get some scripts that keep me tuned up as well
as can be expected considering the accumulated mileage.
Cheers, Gene Heskett

Hi all!
I've switched to TDE not long ago, it works fine, though
I experience some problems.
First of all, layout switching.
I set setxkbmap -option -option grp:ctrl_shift_toggle in the Xkb options
tab, but this feature doesn't seem to work, CTRL+Shift does nothing
with layouts.
Second, is there some option for TDE menu to show submenus in one
column, like MS Windows did for the Start menu? My Settings submenu
fills the entire screen and I don't know what to do.
Third, is it possible to close windows by double-clicking the icon
in the upper left corner? I don't find such an option.
Best wishes, J. Drahun.
If anyone is interested in running TDE on a Raspberry Pi (2 or 3),
it's relatively easy (much more so than w/ a cubieboard) and works
surprisingly well.

Hello all
Today I wanted to send a somewhat large PDF and a "sorry" window poped up
saying: "Your administrator has disallowed attaching files bigger than 50MB".
Being teh administrator, I can't remember ever settting this limit, but more
important: I have no idea where this setting is controled. I don't know of
any "administrator" settings in TDE, I can't find anything in kmail's
settings.
Is kmail looking anywhere else for this limitation?
Regards,
Thierry
Konsole is started as normal user. In it is invoked the
midnight-commander. Keyboard-navigation and -keypresses are flawlessly
executed. The mouse-cursor moves if desired all over the screen.
Clicking *outside* the console starts the envisaged action on other
files, but *inside* the mc-konsole nothing happens at all when clicking.
gpm, konsole and mc all 3 are [ root:root 100755 ].
When I however start the console, then su to root and invoke mc
everything works properly!
Where else should/could I look for the apparently missing
user-permissions? Thanks.
I have an app that I'd like to add to the Menu. I can add this fine to the
Desktop, but it seems night impossible to create it in the Menu hierarchy.
I would further like to make this into a "system tray" app that is
autohidden on startup and of course executed from the autostart folder.
How would I go about doing this?
Thanks for any pointers on this!

I filed a bug:
http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2657
I can't get KTTSMgr to find any voices on two different installations on
Stretch or two different installations on openSUSE 42.1. If it works for you,
please tell me what you're running it on, and if you can, what I might be
overlooking WRT to setup to make it work.

Hi,
I was compiling trinity from git. First TQT, and now I have a problem with
tqtinterface:
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:27 (include):
include could not find load file:
TDEMacros
CMake Error at ConfigureChecks.cmake:25 (tde_message_fatal):
Unknown CMake command "tde_message_fatal".
Call Stack (most recent call first):
CMakeLists.txt:29 (include)
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
The variables are taken from the "How to Build TDE Core Modules" in the
official documentation, only that the prefix is /opt/trinity-v4.
export PREFIX=/opt/trinity-v4
export SYSCONFDIR=/etc/trinity
export LIBDIR=/opt/trinity-v4/lib

I cant find any TDEMacro file, or *TDEMacro*. What's TDEMacro or how do I
fix it?

Via manual selection in VLC, which offers about 20+ devices to choose from,
sound via HDMI works. However, system sounds and Youtube in FF only work via
the analog pin jack. TDE control center makes no HDMI device offering. Anyone
here know the secret to making HDMI default sound source everywhere?
Each of the following in /etc/modprobe.d/local.conf had no effect:
options snd_hda_intel index=0,1
options snd_hda_intel index=1,0
options snd index=0
options snd index=1
options snd_hda_intel index=0
options snd_hda_intel index=1
In a similar vein, instructions on
http://superuser.com/questions/626606/how-to-make-alsa-pick-a-preferred-sou…
either kept analog sound working, but killed HDMI/VLC sound, or had no
apparent effect.
Instructions on http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/HDA_Analyzer
various fail as user. As root, sound doesn't work at all. Doing python run.py
produces nothing that looks helpful, mainly confirming that cmdline tools
already have shown.
alsa-info.sh output:

Hi all,
recently I encountere a problem with using Konsole. For some reason using Shift+<arrow key>
stopped working in Emacs. At first I thought Emacs is at fault but a quick investigation revealed
that using Shift+<arrow> simply does not work in Konsole. With google's help I found a solution
[1], which was to edit keytab file found in /opt/trinity/share/apps/konsole/. An interesting fact
is that I found five files in that directory, but on my system Konsole is using a key set
named "XFree (4.x.x)" and that set is not found in the above directory. I scanned the whole disk
for files ending with *keytab but found only these five files in konsole directory. Does anyone
know where is the definition of "XFree (4.x.x)" key set? I'd like to fix the problem by editing
that set but for now I have edited a set named "XFree (3.x.x)"
