adding users via KControl in 3.5.13.2
by Lisi Reisz 19 Jun '15

19 Jun '15

Can I add users via KControl? If so, how? My exploring has drawn a blank. I personally always use the command line for this type of system administration. Lisi

Hello I think I reported this some time ago. (I am still using 3.5.13 but I think I have seen the problem in Release 14) Either in the kcontrol (center) or in systemsettings when clicking on the user module (user management) I obtain Kcontrol center ,---- | The Trinity ltdl loader was unable to dlopen() the shared library | '/opt/trinity/lib/trinity//kcm_userconfig.so' : | '/opt/trinity/lib/trinity//kcm_userconfig.so: cannot open shared object | file: No such file or directory' | | | Pythonize constructor -- pid = 4410 | Python interpreter initialized! | | | | Pythonize constructor -- pid = 4410 | ImportError: No module named userconfig | error: ***failed to import module `---- And in systemsettings: libraries files for libpython2.6.so not found. Is there any change to fix this in the foreseeable future? thanks Uwe Brauer

Fwd: [cryptography] chromium: unconditionally downloads binary blob
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 17 Jun '15

17 Jun '15

Just seen on the crypto mailing list, for all those chromium users ... Nik ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: [cryptography] chromium: unconditionally downloads binary blob Date: Mittwoch, 17. Juni 2015, 14:12:17 From: Alexander Klimov <alserkli(a)inbox.ru> An: cryptography(a)randombit.net <https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=786909> After upgrading chromium to 43, I noticed that when it is running and immediately after the machine is on-line it silently starts downloading "Chrome Hotword Shared Module" extension, which contains a binary without source code. There seems no opt-out config. that extension: - doesn't appear in the extension list; - is apparently used to provide an “ok google” voice activation stuff. The fact that Audio Capture Allowed is set to yes, and that both the extension and the shared module are marked as “enabled” are definitely bothering me. [...] We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of chromium-browser, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive. [...] Shouldn't we see a DSA [Debian Security Advisory] following this incident? Since no one really know which binaries have been downloaded there and what they actually do, and since it cannot be excluded that it was actually executed, such systems are basically to be considered compromised. Quite a deal of people choose open source just to prevent that - get untrustworthy / unverifiable code run on their systems - failed. -- Regards, ASK ------------------------------------------------------- -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA.

Changes to tdevelop for R14.1.x and R14.0.1
by Michele Calgaro 17 Jun '15

17 Jun '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Dear all, in R14.1.x and in the somehow upcoming R14.0.1 release, tdevelop has reverted to use .kdevelop project files instead of .tdevelop files. Also, the main entry in such file was reverted to "kdevelop" instead of "tdevelop". This has been done to improve compatibility with KDevelop3 project files. When you switch to the "new" version, you will need the following renaming: 1) .tdevelop files -> .kdevelop 2) .tdevelop.filelist files -> .kdevelop.filelist 3) change <tdevelop> to <kdevelop> in any .kdevelop file 4) change </tdevelop> to </kdevelop> in any .kdevelop file Cheers Michele -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJVgRiSAAoJECp1t8qK3tXPPwoP/jciCGEv4z4kx581xI9X0iCr WjiZrmQX+ZbQOYhtv2+ZFsIjy3MdPvp5uWU0nEkcRAk1a2B+YNlLF/Dc5wE2Hw4O K328Xk6fIJ1WDq7sxH1lYOC6nB4I2rHShTZxf0gc8KV/F3ndsGwUHh/NPpyuWucx xO3afbb8IFvsJ7rCCkJFYGSWwQPnwuXjSiC2ao+mZY/TPBPPetZs67RVwJtaukj1 M9jE97jvpus12EIUmMclAnKDXmZKuZWU1a4CiMpnGDsbYx2jTZG0dXRij9uO5/yj slgVWbHLLECJWlj6HMYKRrSxQWK5QwkYkSOpn5OnOAgcZZd9EFwOokWfyGB973kg 4noc7pYuvEo0Tm18/jYJ8uzWECCOW+xFUoZTBSN3uSjj9h0d3302vzNsPzk/YPkX RxbTFrsZUO8Ya6fahD91taqJJd3AIZFhDqfwhfavt0HtAaY/iAaZWc0dsLd2Ge54 +MZACWz/g0+j0lGVcgI4OkxJqY8k6RtqEvKWLoo+BIfIXnPKlVRToELjwozG5ZCE On8Vkg/9BnIe17kWFei+UwlkwHB6t6z8hTDD/04gjeTK4UR5XyUYIjxfib4tLNbl Mrq/q/C9zfva5BlZGiuyJKZ+T3yznbXGyNHgSVD+3udiVlQSbUeGM88r/RnnqJCS 8bmphkuelzaSj+za9nS3 =jWev -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Bloody hell! What a perfect reply. I agree with everything you said. I would add the power of Konqueror. File Manager, FTP/SFTP tool, action menus, image viewer, webbrowser, and more.

What would trh rest of you mention about TDE?
by Lisi Reisz 14 Jun '15

14 Jun '15

I am shortly giving a talk on TDE. Any points that people particularly think I should mention? In fact, any pointers? I love the light flexibility and the marvellous configurability. Its single biggest plus for me is the set-up wizard. I *love* it. I can get rid of the moving, transparent etc. bits _before_ I even log in for the first time, so that I never have to see them. I may see them for the first time during my talk! What about the rest of you? 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 reinstall and reconfigure (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

First, the configurability. In TDE, I can configure all things in a system. Toolbar in Konqueror doesn't have a button I want? I can add it. I need specialized toolbar in specific place? No problem. And I can configure GUI in the setup-level - before first run. Another thing is this inflatable part on the left side of Konqueror window. I have e.g. two directory trees there to quickly switch between my "private" directory and "public HTML" directory when I develop PHP pages. A very good thing is the configuration center, especially custom keyboard actions/shortcuts panel. I have this device: http://mcbx.netne.net/computers/newspix/progkey.jpg configured for unused ctrl/alt/Menu shortcuts. With TDE, I can start programs with one (literally said) button. TWin is another program which is a major TDE's advantage. If I have a network monitor plot window, I can configure it to be bound to one screen, on the top in one place and it won't be accidentially moved. TDE is really fast in older computers. Generally, I had it running without problems on 768MB RAM and Pentium 4 1.5GHz. TDE has a good set of programs for common tasks (Multimedia, e-mail, communication, text editing) sharing common parts, so they can share data without conversion.

Meaning of CrystalSVG folder-with-plug icon ?
by Nick Leverton 11 Jun '15

11 Jun '15

I'm running Slavek's very excellent TDE 14.0.1-pre on Debian Jessie, and I use the TDE CrystalSVG icon set. I recently noticed an unusual icon on one of my folders. It could have been like this for a while as I don't often use this folder, but can anyone tell me what the "plug" icon in the following screenshot signifies, please ? http://www.leverton.org/temp/TDE%20folder-with-plug%20icon.png I have checked in Properties that it hasn't been manually set to this. It hasn't, and I can't see a "plug" icon or overlay anyway. The folder has the same filesystem attributes, extended attributes and user attributes as its siblings, so I think it must be some property only known to TDE that's causing the plug overlay to be added. It's no problem to me, but I'm curious to know what property that might be. Nick -- "The Internet, a sort of ersatz counterfeit of real life" -- Janet Street-Porter, BBC2, 19th March 1996
