Persistent configuration of multihead screen

by rantalbott＠gmail.com

Running R14.0.12 on Ubuntu 20.04 I have two 1920x1080 monitors that I use as one 3840x1080 X screen. On startup, TDM has the left and right monitors "swapped". I can manually rearrange them once I'm logged in, but that's annoying. Especially because the configuration program does something weird to the color map on one monitor, so I have to logout and log back in. It would be nice to have a "save configuration" option when doing a manual setup, but I suspect the developers have more important things to do ;-) I've found two suggestions for solving this problem. One is to add an xrandr command to my .xinitrc (which I don't actually have at the moment), and the other is to put a configuration into xorg.conf (which I also don't have now. And which worries me a bit, because the structure of /etc/X11 has changed quite a bit since I last had to fiddle with it, years ago. The Ubuntu installer developers have gotten really good at getting it right automagically...) The latter seems preferable, since it would bring TDM up in the proper configuration, but it's not clear whether I'd need to do a complete X configuration with all the various devices in it. If you have some experience with this, please let me know; a. whether TDM will freak out if I do an xrandr in the middle of login b. how much of an x configuration I need to create to position the monitors, or c. whether there's a TDM config file I can fiddle to make it arrange the monitors. Thanks, Ran

I love TDE and want to see it thrive for ages to come. Problem is I don't know where to start online education wise. I know I can use places like Linux Foundation and Udemy but what classes does one take? Should I try learning C++? Learn what TQt actually is and does? I just haven't a clue where to start. Thank you for any help you guys can provide. Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android

Setting Konsole options

by J Leslie Turriff

I've just installed a package that includes some components that run in a terminal session. The package installed various application icons in KMenu. When I start the component that runs in a terminal, a Konsole session pops up, then immediately closes. See the attached image while reading further. If I open KMenu's Menu Editor to edit the entry it provides only the 'Run in terminal check box', but not the 'Do not close when command exits checkbox'; the only way to access that checkbox is to add the application to the screen's menu bar, right-click the icon, select the 'Configure <program> button...' option, select the Application tab in the Properties dialog, click on 'Advanced Options', and finally the ''Do not close when command exits checkbox' appears. Shouldn't the 'Do not close when command exits checkbox' be presented in the Menu Editor's window as well?

Safe to remove program icons on Trinity Desktop without removing the apps themselves?

by jim_gunn＠yahoo.com

I'm brand new to Linux and just installed the Trinity desktop with Q4OS on a older pc. One thing I am unclear about- are the shortcut icons on the Trinity desktop that came with my distro installation for example, LibreOffice or Thunderbird able to be deleted or removed from the desktop without removing the apps themselves just like on a Windows desktop where the icons are just shortcuts and can be deleted safely without removing the apps themselves?

Important backport for TDE R14.1.0 packages

by Slávek Banko

Hi everyone, some users of RPM-based distros reported high CPU usage and general slowness when upgrading from R14.0.x to R14.1.0. The issue has been investigated and the problem resolved in R14.1.1-devel (see https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/tde/tde/issues/128). Given the severity of the problem, we have decided to backport the required fixes and release updated builds of the affected packages for R14.1.0. Although the problem only showed up on specific RPM distros, packages have been updated for all distros for consistency. Please make sure you update to the latest available version of all tqt3 and tdelibs packages in your distribution. If you are a PSB/PTB user, you should have already received or will receive the fixes as part of the last/next update. Cheers The TDE dev team
