Hi Tim
I tried emailing you via the email (kb9vqf(a)pearsoncomputing.net) on the TDE
site but it bounced. Is there an email I can contact you on with regards to
Quickbuild (Launchpad) or is it fine to ask here?
Cheers.
Michael.
My recent bout of proselytising is bringing converts - and questions that I
can't answer. I'll feed these out one at a time.
If the locale of Trinity is wrong, i.e. was not installed correctly in the
first place - US instead of UK in the case in question - how can one put it
right? Keyboard is easy, but there is a lot more wrong than Keyboard. Dates
are unreadable, money wrong, paper default sizes wrong etc. At least numbers
are, I think, right!! There are two desktops on the laptop in question, and
I *think* that the other one is right and is set to UK.
Just for the record, and in case of doubt, living with it is not a realistic
option!!
Thanks,
Lisi
Hi All,
I've just done a clean install of Mageia 5 with the latest Trinity
r14.0.1 RPMs and I've found a problem, the trinity-filesystem RPM seems
to be missing from the repository, this prevents installation of the
core packages. I've build my own version of the RPM from an older source
RPM so that I could get the installation to proceed and everything else
seems to have worked.

Hello
This seems a odd problem, I can bind in Emacs/Xemac control+shift, or
shift but not left+shift. Emacs does not recognize the key so I thought
maybe trinity has bound that key.
That happens for example with the Control+F1-Control+F12 keys.
But I was not able to find any binding.
Somebody has an idea?
thanks

Greetings all;
As has been mentioned, I dabble in CNC machinery too. Maybe that
qualifies me as a power user since the motors used to run the machinery
do spin the power meter up a bit. :)
Anyway, the most recent version of the documentation for LiniuxCNC,
version 2.7.0, has been combined from 3 "books" of nominally 450 pages
each, some of which contained duplicate info, into one 704 page tome
now.
So I called up kpdf and sent it to print this, duplex mode on my Brother
HL3170CDW color laser printer.
It immediately jumped one core to 100%, but I figured that would take it
a while to preprocess. But after about 10 minutes I began to worry
because I had started that job once before but had to reboot the machine
for other reasons before it had sent a wakeup byte to the printer.
So I called up a copy of iceweasel to see what
localhost:631/printers/network-printer had to say for itself. Which was
that the "pdftops" filter had failed.
So I canceled the job. Thirty seconds later, the printer wakes up and
starts slowly spitting out the printout as requested. But I have no
clue how many pages into the document it will get before running out of
data because it is about 30 sheets of paper into the job, and still
trucking along in duplex mode. The printer is rated at 20 PPM, but in
duplex, all that paper handling cuts it to about 2 or 3 sheets a minute.
When it dies, I can restart the job at an arbitrary page number to finish
the job of course, but I am curious why the web interface to cups would
report the failure of the pdftops filter, yet it looks to be working
well right this instant?
But then it reported a drum error, please slide the wire cleaner gismo's
on all 4 drums. Did, it spit out the bad page and reprinted a good copy
of that page. And 34 pages of preamble index etc, plus over 100 pages
of the 704 in the doc so far. Did I mention I love Brother printers
yet?
But whats with kpdf? Inquiring minds would like to know.
Thanks everybody.
Cheers, Gene Heskett

Hi.
I changed my sources.list to point to the pearsoncomputing.net site
for Jessie, rather than the "preliminary build" site, and when I tried
it I got this:
Err http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-r14.0.0/debian/
jessie/main libtqt3-mt amd64 4:14.0.1-0debian8.0.0+0
301 Moved Permanently
All the packages got the "301" error. I stopped the process after half
a dozen or so.
Did I miss something? I knew that Jessie had been moved to the
Pearsoncomputing.net archives, and thought that I'd left enough time
for everything to copy over.

Hi all!
I just updated a wheezy testmachine with TDE 14.0.0 to devuan + jessie + TED 14.0.1. Surprisingly things went quite smooth. After the upgrade I had to manually purge systemd and cgmanager. Now there is only "libsystemd0" left - well, maybe somebody needs to recompile "cups" without systemd :-)

Hi everyone!
My PCLinuxOS TDE non-official remaster version 2015, September 5 is ready to download!
I call it non-official because it doesn't come from the PCLOS team and since it contains software coming from outside of their repos, it is also not supported by them. It only has a special ''permission to exist'' from the PCLinuxOS dev team.

-Choice of either classic Grub or Grub2
-Smaller ISO size
On this LiveDVD:
-Tons of TDE software and major apps like LibreOffice 5, Firefox 40, Gimp and so...
-PCLinuxOS does NOT use SystemD
Login info (on the LiveDVD):
Regular user:guest Password:guest
Super user: root Password:root
System requirement:
A x86 computer with at least 384mb of RAM.
It is a 32bit system, but it can be installed on a 64bit system too.

If you like what you see, you can consider giving some money to the Trinity Desktop Environment project!
It is very important to do so, because development and internet infrastructure needed to brought you
TDE are expensive to buy and keep running, so the future of TDE is in your hands!
Give me your comments!
