TDE R14, Debian Jessie
I download & open a pdf file with kpdf from a vendor, happens automagically,
kpdf is set as default app for pdf.
I go to 'file>save as" , the save as dialog always starts at /tmp...then I
have to navigate to the dir with saved pdf's...this is a deep dir
structure...I would prefer to have 'save as' open the last used dir...or
something..is this configurable?

hi tde fans! I notice there's the systemtray kmix applet which works
quite well in TDE for managing sound volume but there's a little benign
issue here with r14 on debian jessie.
When I use the mousewheel over the kmix volume speaker in the system
tray, the volume changes but when the kmix icon is clicked on to expand
showing the vol indicator, the position of the vol indicator remains
unaffected.
not a top priority of course so I'm patient to see a fix on this..
thanks
Greetings all;
TDE r4, kmail-1.9.10.
Just in th last 4 or 5 days, the spell checker in the tool pulldown menu
has disappeared. It still works, hilighting the words it _thinks_ are
miss-spelled, but the only way to fix it seems to be playing the 10,000
moneys writing MacBeth again.
Any body know how to re-enable that spelling thing in the tools menu and
make it work again? It did work, for a few days after I installed TDE,
latest. but it left at about the same time it forgot 40 of the 70 or so
filter rules.
Thanks all.
Cheers, Gene Heskett

Hi
I just installed R14 on Ubuntu 14.04 and everything went
smoothly. Thanks to the team!
However I opened the control center and I cannot find the user
administration tool and am familiar with. Is this included any new
package?
Thanks

Was "Re: [trinity-users] R14: where is the user administration"
A way to generate and remember passwords: use an algorithm. Start
with a memorable sentence, for example:
"Trinity Desktop is my #1 website"
Replace parts of it to make a password:
"TD14=m#1ws"
where TD stands for the site's name, and 14 is the number of letters in it.
So for Facebook you could use
"FB8=m#1ws"
Of course you would use a different phrase in which you could
substitute more special characters.
Now all you need is the website name to reconstruct the password.

Greetings; new sub to the list, had trinity installed for about a week.
It solved a huge fonts problem I had with wheezy's kmail.
However, it appears that everytime I add a new filter, an old one falls out of
the list and quits working. Since I have about 60 folders, I can only
setup "sort to folder" rules for about 24 or so before this "culling" seems
to start. And the droppage does not effect the install presets, just the
ones I've added, most of which were generated by the "filter on
Subject/To:/From:" in the message pulldown. And then fine tuned for changes
in [content] of the subject, and in the order of application.
I don't know if its too small a buffer assignment for filters or what.
I have 8Gb of memory in this amd64 (phenom) powered box, so memory, within
reason, should not be a problem.
Is this known? A fix in progress?
2nd kmail related question...
Several previous versions of kmail, it has had a dbus port, by which I could
have a 'new mail watcher' script send a message to kmail to have it go get
that mail which had arrived in /var/spool/mail by way of a
fetchmail/procmail/spamassassin/clamscan chain that has been running for
several years here, unloading that duty from kmail. So all it has to do is
go get that mail when it comes in.
That script is now logging errors to the shell I started it in because the
dbus target string doesn't exist.
AMD64 bit 3.2.0 kernel running ATM.
Thank you.
Cheers, Gene Heskett

The default script that runs clamscan over a goodly portion of the system on a
daily basis is haveing cron send messages to /var/spool/mail/mail, so I
changed perms on that file so kmail could fetch it from the local mail box
and set kmail up to do that.
I find I had about 125k worth of messages because the scripts I copied over
from the old drive aren't quite compatible with this install.
I have fought tooth and nail with the system and it blanket denial of my
ability to read a log file unless I either play with the parent locations
ownership and permissions, so much so that I create in my home dir, a log
subdir so that all these utilities could both write a log file and I could
read it.
I am eventually going to have to create some logrotate entries to handle
maintenance on these log files, but at least I can read them.
Which is the preferred method of dealing with this, my way, or hacking up
owners and permissions all over the /var/log tree?
Thanks.

greetings, folks . . .
i don't know if this is a bug or if i'm doing something wrong here.
the plan was to burn my 20-gig mail directory to a blu-ray m-disc for
archive purposes -- m-discs are supposed to last without degrading for
1000 years. in order to burn blu-ray, i understand that i need to use
cdrecord, which is fine. so i got and installed it, but k3b-trinity says
it can't find it. oddly, k3b from kde4x found it just fine, and it works.
i prefer k3b-trinity. but i have no idea what i can do to make it find
cdrecord. additionally, i'd guess that because cdrecord overwrote whatever
was there before, i can't use k3b-trinity for anything anymore.
is this a known issue?

Hi All,
I've got an odd problem. I've just installed Debian Jessie with TDE
14.0. For some reason, if I try to reply to a news (Usenet) posting
using Knode, I get a pop up asking me to insert a valid email address
in the Identity section. If I don't select any post then I get the
expected new post window.
I've deleted "knoderc" and recreated it, deleted all the groups and
re-selected them without any change.
I did use "apt install" to get knode since Jessie didn't come with it
installed.
Thanks for any help.
