Audio CD encoding to MP3
by Curt Howland 23 Dec '15

23 Dec '15

Quick question, I noticed that the selections when inserting an audio CD are WAV, CDA, FLAC and OggVorbis. You can tell it's been a while, wasn't MP3 on that list? Curt- -- The secret of happiness is freedom, and the secret of freedom is courage. - Thucydides

Problem with sound from Tdemid
by alistair izzard 23 Dec '15

23 Dec '15

Hi Merry Christmas and a very happy new year to all. I wonder if you can help with this, installed tdemid and loaded a midi file, but I don't get any sound from it, I have been in pulse audio and it doesn't show, I have also tried all the midi maps to see if I get sound, I can see the file playing and it seems functional just as I said, no sound. Thanks in advance for any ideas or suggestions Alie

Failed to add a plugin to the panel
by deloptes 22 Dec '15

22 Dec '15

Hi before logging a bug I would consult the community on following. In the console I type: kfmclient exec settings:/ or kfmclient openURL settings:/ which opens the settings in konqueror, but then I open "Peripherals" or whatever is called in English and press Mouse. I get Failed to add a plugin to the panel No running instance of xfce4-panel was found WTH? Any idea? Anyone else can reproduce this? I've never used xfce thanks regards

cannot launch shell script
by Giuliano Colla 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

I'm running TDE 14.0.2 on CentOs 6. My compliments to the trinity team for the excellent job! I've got back all the reach features of KDE 3, instead of a bloated and much less usable Plasma thing. However I've stumbled into an annoying issue. When clicking on the icon of an executable shell script (extension .sh), it's opened for editing in Kate, and not launched. The same, under KDE4 is properly executed. Is it a matter of some improper setting that I can fix, or a bug? Additional information. Looking to the file properties, I see that it's using the settings for the group "text". In /opt/trinity/share/mimelink I find both /text/x-shellscript.desktop which has a line: X-TDE-IsAlso=application/x-executable-script and a line [Property::X-TDE-text] and /application/x-shellscript.desktop which has the two identical line, which make little sense IMHO because if I understand properly they tell that it's also itself, and that it should be treated as text. Thanks for any help. Giuliano

openSuSE and trinity-tdemultimedia >= 14.02
by Thierry de Coulon 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

I don't remember who maintains the openSUSE builds, but I'd first like to thank him for all the work! Having some free time I decided to give "Leap 42.1" a try. It installs correctly under Gnome 3 (SUSE provides Mate as an install choice now, I've noted). Then I started installing TDE and all went well until "zypper install trinity-desktop". At that point I get a puzzling message: trinity-desktop-14.0.2-1.oss421.noach requires trinity-tdemultimedia >= 14.02 but this requirement cannot be provided. Repos being updated? Leap version uncomplete? Simply the usual communication problems with some repos, try later? No big deal as I don't intend using Leap before next summer (I _never_ change my work distribution during the school year...) but I'd like to understand the message. Greetings from Switzerland, Thierry

KSysV missfire
by Gene Heskett 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

Greetings; Out of curiosity, I tried to run ksysv from the tde menu. Can't. If insists on a root pw that does not exist on this debian wheezy install. A sudo -i in a konsole for me, and it runs just fine. This really ought to be fixed. No biggie for me, but...

Mimetype problems with r14
by Kate Draven 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

As you may have guess, I found a mimetype problem for any trinity applications. I just found out that k3b for trinity cannot open/recognize its own saved projest files/mimetypes (just like chalk doesn't). However k3b for kde4 could and that was the clue. Install chalk and try to open a template. Or create and save a project with k3b for trinity. See if they work. I don't think it will. I'm not jumping to the conclusion that I'm right. However I have seen this across 29 machines so far. The reason, I think, for that is because these mimetypes are for kde4 (best way I can explain it). I can open k3b saved projects in k3b for kde4, but not in k3b for trinity. The mimetype designs for kde3 / 4 are not compatible with r14. These appears randomly throughout the gui, for example kword cannot open an rtf anymore etc etc. As I dig deeper I'm finding more of this. I can do work arounds but they're ugly and not sustainable. These problems only relate to trinity and does not affect gtk or others. Please let know what all of find. When I have time I'll try to file a bug report. Thanks Kate

TDE and bluetooth (Bluez 5)
by deloptes 20 Dec '15

20 Dec '15

Hi, sorry for bugging you all, but now I'm trying to catch up what I missed in the past 4+ years. Unfortunately I did find out that the mess around bluetooth is getting even bigger now with Bluez 5. http://askubuntu.com/questions/440386/bluetoothd-bluez-5-wont-connect-with-… What is your experience with BT and is someone using it with phones? After couple of hours I was able to pair my old symbian phone, but bt-agent (bluez-tools) is segfaulting (kernel 4.1.6) bluetoothctl worked after executing the proper sequence of commands and catching the phone in good mood. How would one pair the phone (or any BT device) from within TDE? regards

[trinity-users] no sound whatsoever in r14.0.2 on openSUSE 13.1, 13.2 or Tumbleweed or Fedora 23

starttde won't even start due to http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2557 so I run /opt/trinity/bin/starttde from the xterm that startx puts on the display, in which the following appears (among much else which I cannot figure out how to copy and paste into any file): [starttde] TDE_SESSION_UID: 0 [tdeinit] Shutting down running client. ...

What program needs --system? How do I configure that way? How do I get sound in these distros? Same distros typically make sound automagically on other hardware, so why this machine's trouble is inexplicable, especially as it works as expected with Jessie. Running alsaconf unloads all kernel snd modules, then reports cannot find any sound device.
