Hi Guys, PcLinuxOs, Trinity 14, I think I might have stumbled on a bug ! I've had folders seem to disappear when moved from one window to another. I've found that if there are more folders than can be displayed in the window, moving down to the bottom of the window so that the top folders cannot be seen, and then moving a folder from another window into the white space, results in the moved folder disappearing. Doing a find tells me that the missing folder is now in one of the folders above and not in the white space where I put it or in the sort order. If I move to the top of a folder with files below the bottom and If I move and put a folder from another window at the top but between the others it goes where I put it. It works as expected. I can repeat this every time. Note the folder sort is set to "By Name" I mention this because I thought that "Sort" might have something to do with it, but it doesn't seem to. Thanks Guys. -- Best Regards: Baron

Thank you! Inspired by your scripts and the output of xrandr, two lines in my .bashrc did the job: xrandr --output HDMI-0 --right-of DVI-0 --auto --primary xrandr --output DVI-0 --auto I over-simplified the commands because I am on a desktop and my two screens are always connected. No more fiddling with screen settings on each login! :-) On 16-12-01 03:00 PM, deloptes wrote: > iadest(a)o2.pl wrote: > >> OK, this is a sum of 3 scripts I use: >> >> #!/bin/bash >> >> #Test if we are not in dock >> if [ -a /dev/video0 ] >> then >> #echo "Going to dock mode!"; >> xrandr --output LVDS1 --off >> #xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 1600x1200 >> xrandr --newmode "1600x1200b" 180.0 1600 1604 1796 2050 1200 >> 1201 1204 1250 +hsync +vsync >> xrandr --addmode VGA1 1600x1200b >> xrandr --output VGA1 --primary --mode 1600x1200b >> xrandr --addmode DVI1 1600x1200b >> xrandr --output DVI1 --mode 1600x1200b >> xrandr --output DVI1 --right-of VGA1 >> else >> #we are not in dock.

Dual screen setup not remembered
by midi-pascal 01 Dec '16

01 Dec '16

Hi, I use Trinity R14.0.4 under Ubuntu 14.04 on a Dell Optiplex 990. My setup is dual screen (1 HDMI 27po, 1 DisplayPort 24 po) connected to a Radeon video card. The 24po is on my left and the 27po is in front (main screen). I tried tderandrtray, Trinity Control Center, System Settings to set things up with success. But each time I log out or reboot, the display settings are lost. Both screens show the same display (main) and are in reverse order (left/right). Is there a way to make Trinity remember my screen settings so I do not have to set things up each time? Thanks!

Struggling with (T)QT3 tutorial
by gregory guy 27 Nov '16

27 Nov '16

Hi there! Not sure if It"s the right thing to do, but I adjusted tutorial 1 code (hello world) like this: ------------------------------------------------------------- #include <tqapplication.h> #include <tqpushbutton.h> int main( int argc, char **argv ) { TQApplication a( argc, argv ); TQPushButton hello( "Hello world!", 0 ); hello.resize( 100, 30 ); a.setMainWidget( &hello ); hello.show(); return a.exec(); } ------------------------------------------------------------ Since I've compiled Trinity by myself the headers are located in /usr/include/tqt and /usr/include/tqt3, the libraries (all of them) in /usr/lib64. I had to adjust the Makefile file accordingly, like this: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INCPATH = -I/usr/share/tqt3/mkspecs/default -I. -I/usr/include/tqt -I/usr/include/tqt3 LINK = g++ LFLAGS = -luuid -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib64 LIBS = $(SUBLIBS) -L/usr/lib64 -L/usr/X11R6/lib -luuid -ltqt-mt -lXext -lX11 -lm -lpthread --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hope that help!

KolourPaint crashes TDE, Kuickshow shows garbage
by J. Drahun 18 Nov '16

18 Nov '16

Good day, all. So, subj is the problem. 1. (KolourPaint) I just wonder if I'm alone excepting such kind of error. If I'm not, is there any kind of solution? If I'm, I suppose I should file an issue? 2. (Kuickshow) I don't know what happens and if I'm able to do anything, but here's the attachment. I hope it shows.

"End current session" as only option
by Thierry de Coulon 16 Nov '16

16 Nov '16

Hello all, I have installed MX-15 Linux (I think I learned about it here), that is Debian based. I haven't used it so much yet (main install using openSUSE). Following the announce of 14.0.4 I have tried to dist-upgrade, which worked well (appart of Grub2 overwriting my mbr as usual) and MX-15 now has 14.0.4. However, I can't shutdown from TDE (anymore? I think I could before, but I am not 100% sure). I have checked what settings I identify "(offer shutdown options" is checked, "allow shutdown" is set to "everybody") but after a right click + Log out <user> all I'm offered is to "End current session". To shutdown or restart I must use the command line and get root. Thierry

where does kmail store emails?
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 15 Nov '16

15 Nov '16

Hi all! I kmail, when typing an email address, kmail gives a dropdown list of previously entered mail adresses. Now I trying to get rid of some badly formed email adressess from that list, but I cannot figure out where kmail stores this list. So, does anybody know where this list lives? I also try to give konqueror a list of adresses that it should present the user when he/she types something in the URL field. Where do I find this list? Nik -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA.
