kmail-1.9.10 vs signed messages
by Gene Heskett 28 Dec '15

28 Dec '15

Greetings all; I would like at some point to be able to use some sort of verification, even encryption for some of my emails. But the msg from Ken Heard displays the start of my problem, in that no matter how I configure kmail on the crypto tab, any message bearing a signature will be displayed at first with a checking signature message, then nominally 1 second later, will either change to a yellow bar say not enough information, or a red bar that says its bad. It has never, ever shown me that its a good signature. So, how do I proceed to bring this feature into the appropriate RFC compliance and properly functioning? Thanks.

Tde on Ubuntu 14.04 running chinese Wondermedia WM8880 netbook
by Alexandre 27 Dec '15

27 Dec '15

Hi all, I bought a few weeks ago a 10 inch android netbook, with a dual-core 1.5ghz WonderMedia WM8880 cpu and 512mb of ram, 2 regular usb 2.0 ports, wifi and ethernet. These go for around 100$ on ebay and so far, it is a great buy! It has Android 4.4 and can boot from the sd card. I found somewhere on internet (from the guys at http://androportal.github.io/linux-on-aakash/) a working Ubuntu 14.04 image for this netbook. I currently run Slavek's TDE Preliminary Stable Build on it, and TDE is very comfortable on it and responsive, even with Compton enabled. Real-life power seems to me to be almost the same as the Raspberrry Pi 2(subjectively), but in a complete and pretty laptop. Hardware support is more or less complete, as I have to use an external usb to ethernet adapter to go online, and no wifi for now under linux, but it is still a very capable machine and the quality is much better than it was in the past. If someone is interested in it, I'll be able to upload online an image of the sd card. Merry Christmas and may 2016 be a great year for you and your family! -Alexandre

Open in Iceweasel URLs in Icedove emails -- how?
by Ken Heard 27 Dec '15

27 Dec '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Before Wheezy clicking on a URL in an icedove email would cause the URL to open in iceweasel. With Wheezy and Jessie I can no longer do so. Now I have to copy the URL from the email, open iceweasel and then enter it myself in the iceweasel address line. In one computer I have Wheezy, TDE 14.0.2, icedove 38.4.0 and iceweasel 38.5.0. Update-alternatives --config x-www-browser points to iceweasel %u as the default. In addition file ~/mozilla/icedove/9vgk89rr.default/user.js contains the following two lines: user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http", "iceweasel %u"); user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.https", "iceweasel %u") Removing the ‘%u’ where I had it has no effect; so I kept them. I also ran in my user the command xdg-mime default iceweasel.desktop x-scheme-handler/http \ x-scheme-handler/https also to no effect. Am I missing something else required to open URLs in icedove emails automatically in iceweasel? I have the same problem with another computer with Jessie instead of Wheezy, but I do not have access to that one at this time. Compliments of the season and thanks in advance for any help provided, Ken Heard -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlZ/b4IACgkQlNlJzOkJmTdsegCfT2XxM5Ss7+jhF3CnYc4J/55m ni8An0SJY0igcEoFQpsxFMSIP5iL5/Xe =QS5M -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

DANGEROUS LINUX PROGRAM CALLED "TRINITY"
by Mark S Bilk 26 Dec '15

26 Dec '15

On this website: http://codemonkey.org.uk/projects/trinity/ is a Linux program that makes random system-calls. The author calls it a "fuzzer" and has named it "Trinity". When run, it creates lots of junk files, can delete pre-existing files, and do anything else the OS can do. A friend of mine wanted to install TDE, but carelessly ran that "fuzzer" program instead. He cleaned out the junk files but doesn't know what other damage has been done. People need to be warned about that program! I sent e-mail to the author asking him to put a warning on his web page for people seeking TDE, but I don't know if he will do it. Prospective TDE users must be sent here directly: http://trinitydesktop.org/ and told not to find it via Google, etc.

Mouse, continued
by Gene Heskett 24 Dec '15

24 Dec '15

Greetings all; I am having a problem with the mouse pointer being very hard to find on the milling machines box. TCC doesn't show me any themes, so what do I need to install that will A, give me a bigger pointer, and B color it some bright color with buckets of contrast on the default bluish TDE screen?

update-rc.d tdm-trinity disable doesn't work on raspbian jessie
by Philip Ashmore 24 Dec '15

24 Dec '15

Hi there. I've got some raspberry pi's running raspbian-jessie with trinity installed. They're intended to be run headless, with trinity available as needed. I'd like the option to start the desktop manually, not automatically. I tried # update-rc.d tdm-trinity disable and got insserv: warning: current start runlevel(s) (empty) of script `tdm-trinity' overrides LSB defaults (2 3 4 5). insserv: warning: current stop runlevel(s) (0 1 2 3 4 5 6) of script `tdm-trinity' overrides LSB defaults (0 1 6). insserv: warning: current start runlevel(s) (empty) of script `tdm-trinity' overrides LSB defaults (2 3 4 5). insserv: warning: current stop runlevel(s) (0 1 2 3 4 5 6) of script `tdm-trinity' overrides LSB defaults (0 1 6). After a reboot I'm still seeing /var/run/tdm.pid and I can stop the desktop/greeter? with # /etc/init.d/tdm-trinity stop I ran raspi-config and set the option to boot into command line without login/desktop but that doesn't seem to have any effect. Any pointers? Regards, Philip Ashmore

Specifying SMTP server by folder in KMail 1.9.10
by Lisi Reisz 23 Dec '15

23 Dec '15

Is there any way I can specify the SMTP server for my emails so that mailing lists go via one server and everything else with the other? I can do it manually quite easily, but that requires me to remember. And it is a bit of a nuisance. I have KMail set to use different identities according to folder. I would like to be able to use different SMTP servers according to folder. Lisi

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
