TDE for the blind
by Lisi Reisz 24 May '15

24 May '15

I am shortly giving a talk on TDE. I shall laud it as a desktop for the partially sighted, but shall say that it appears to be less friendly to the totally blind, in that it does not seem to have a screen reader. Is that correct? Any points that people would particularly like mentioned? In fact, any pointers? I shall use TDE 3.10.13.2 on Wheezy. I considered upgrading to 14, but if it goes wrong I haven't a lot of time to reinstate (because I am a bit over-stretched at the moment.) I need to use my own desktop because some of the things that I want to demonstrate I can't really set up anywhere else. E.g. KMail. I need mail! I am open to contradiction on that. But I am so familiar with 3.10.13.2, and it is mostly going to be a live demonstration. I don't want to do too much eerm.... let me see ...... I am bound to do some! Thanks. Lisi

No default shell for new users
by Thierry de Coulon 24 May '15

24 May '15

Hi all, Today I used kuser (R14.0) tu setup a new user. Why does kuser leave the login shell empty? Without a loging shell starting teh new user fails (xsession error), ans I'd guess most people who set up a new user though TDE will want a graphical login, so a default of /bin/bash would seem appropriate. I'm pretty sure this would be a very small change in the code. Have a nice Sunday, Thierry

changes in R14.0.0
by ant 21 May '15

21 May '15

Since upgrading a few days ago, I get the following from KMail after a suspend: "The IP address of the host mail.xxx.xxx does not match the one the certificate was issued to." And I think this is true, thanks to my ISP's way of dealing with certificates. However, answering the next popup: "Would you like to accept this certificate forever without being prompted?" with 'Forever', does not have the desired effect, because it all happens again after the next suspend. Any obvious reason for this, or any other diagnostics I can try? It seemed to be fine with 3.5.13.2 cheers ant -- Sent from my linux system running Debian 7, desktop trinity-KDE.

Desktop fails to load - SOLVED?
by Slávek Banko 21 May '15

21 May '15

Friends, maybe I have good news for you! I have prepared small patch for tdelibs. In my tests this patch successfully prevents dead-lock in kdesktop. See: http://bugs.trinitydesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2437#c9 Updated packages containing proposed patch is already included in the preliminary-stable-builds. So, update, test and report the results! -- Slávek

LibreOffice has a problem with TDE R14.0 dialogs
by Thierry de Coulon 20 May '15

20 May '15

Hello all, Since I upgraded TDE to R14.0 (on openSUSE 13.1) I've got a problem with LibreOffice (4.2.5.2). More precisely with the save dialog. If I want to save a file (save as), I get a first error dialog: "Sorry - LibreOffice Could not find mime typeapplication/octet-stream" When I click ok it says: "no mime types installed" And if I accept this one I get "Malformed URL file:///data" And then a dialog box showing my path (/data/), but any navigation try is answered with "Malformed URL file:///" I've checked the file associations, set up LibreOffice's programs as first choice (they had been set further back in the list). Everything seems same as in 3.5.13.2, but it does not work. Interrestingly, I found discussions about a similar (?) problem with KDE back in 2004, but the proposed solutions did not apply). A simple workaround is to set LibreOffice to use it's own dialogs, but I thought it was worth reporting because I acn't figure out what's the problem. Thierry

Installed R14.0.1 but no desktop
by Ken Heard 18 May '15

18 May '15

I successfully got the key for Slávek Banko's repository in order to authenticate a preliminary stable build of R14.0.1 to use with Jessie. I then installed tde-trinity -- a total of 503 packages. When the login manager appeared, after selecting TDE as my session type I was able to log in as my user. The default flash screen appeared with seven icons across the bottom. The first four were highlighted briefly. When the fifth one, “Loading the desktop”, appeared the icon flashed for 50 seconds, then the flash screen disappeared, leaving only the original blue screen with blotches of white of various shapes, the Debian swirl in red and the cursor – nothing else. From this point I could do nothing else. What I i supposed to do now? Was something was missed in the installation? Regards, Ken Heard
