When reading the thread "Lockups after unlocking screensaver", it reminds me an unanswered question I had months ago. I use Trinity 3.13.2 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. As far as I can recall (years), my TDE session started on vt7 (Ctrl-Alt-F7). After a power outage, I restarted my box and ever since TDE starts on vt8 (Ctrl-Alt-F8). Everything works well but I would like to understand the reason of this vt switch. I searched the web for an answer with no success. Does someone on this list has an answer? Nothing harmful, no bug, but curiosity... is on mars now :-) midi-pascal

xine finds no audio drivers

by Robert Peters

Hi, I'm running an install from exegnu-jessv-20141125 on a recent ThinkPad. Amarok when starting complains: xine was unable to initialize any audio drivers. Haven't found anything satisfactory in searching, but the problem goes back at least to KDE3. BTW, VCL works okay, after I select the mixer. Maybe it uses different drivers. Robert

TDEPowersave doesn't report running on battery

by Dan Youngquist

TDEPowersave always reports running on AC power, even when running on the battery, and doesn't give the low battery warnings. This started when I upgraded to R14; it worked fine in 13.2. It's a big problem because, when runing on battery, the machine just dies with no warning when the battery is dead. This is on an HP laptop running Debian 7 (Wheezy) and R14 from Slavek's repo, updated this morning. -- PGP key: http://homestead-products.com/pubkey.htm

Both show on the left the "create link" dialog (Create New -> Link to Device -> nfs). It shows five tabs, the middle one being "Device". On the right you see the properties of an existing "Link to Device". On the desktop of 3.5.13.2 you have the middle tab. On the desktop of 3.5.14.0.0 it does not show. The Link does not get the correct icon and it does not work either (although mount <mount point> works, so the nfs mount does work). I also compared the Desktop Files, they are identical, so the problem is deeper. Thierry

Lockups after unlocking screensaver

by Mike Bird

Since installing RC2 I have twice experienced "lockups" upon unlocking the screen. I have never experienced these before. Once "locked up" the mouse has no effect and there is almost no keyboard effect. However numlock and capslock keys still flip their indicator LEDs and ctrl-alt-Fn can be used to switch to another console. First time: as root I restarted tdm-trinity. I didn't notice if there were any error messages. When Trinity restarted it was on a new console - alt-F8 instead of alt-F7. The second time: as root I stopped tdm-trinity. I noticed error messages saying the stop had failed. I killed -9 kdesktop_lock, stopped tdm-trinity again, and started it. This time Trinity started on the expected console. I'd appreciate any suggestions of any additional steps I should take to help diagnose the problem if it happens again. --Mike

Hello all, I had installes Wheezy several time and then installes TDE, no problem, choose TDM and restart... I've just installed two laptops from the 7.7 CD and both time I had to wipe out Gnome 3 to get TDE loading. Is this a new rogue Gnome Install way? Thierry

kdeskto_lock issue

by Greg Madden

Debian Wheezy, Amd64, Nvidia quadro card, drivers from vender, dual monitors. In my .xsession-errors files I can see numerous entries: "tdecore] Deleting stale lockfile /tmp/tde-pabiVcZK3y/kdesktop_lock_lockfile" This crashes my X session, ~ 1 minute uptime, dumps me back to the login screen, totaly unworkable. I have been working around this issue because it only happens on 2 workstations with the same hardware specs, and drivers from Nvidia. I remove '/opt/trinity/bin/kdesktop_lock', I do not use screensaver or lock desktop, this works..until an update replaces the kdesktop_lock binary...this will stop eventually. I read bugs 2222 & 2230, re kdesktop_lock, I could run a backtrace if that would help and if someone could give directions on howto. I will file a bug with the backtrace. -- Peace, Greg

Re: [trinity-users] What about a Trinity Raspberry Pi Raspbian-based image?

I might be interested in an implementation but my feeling is - the Banana Pi is more worth to work with. It's nearly as cheap as the Raspberry but is a lot better designed and more powerfull: Raspberry Pi Model B+ Banana Pi ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SoC Broadcom BCM2835 Allwinner A20 CPU ARM1176JZF-S (700 MHz bis 1000 MHz) ARM Cortex-A7 Dual-Core (1000 MHz) GPU Broadcom VideoCore IV ARM Mali 400MP2 RAM 512 MByte 1 GByte DDR3 DRAM LAN 10/100 MBit/s 10/100/1000 MBit/s GPIO 17 Pins 26 Pins, I2C, SPI, UART, CAN bus SATA 7-Pin-SATA-Port USB 4x USB 2.0 Host 2x USB 2.0 Host, 1x USB OTG, 1x CSI Kamera MISC Onboard Micro und IR-Receiver SIZE 85,6 mm x 56,0 mm 92,0 mm x 60,0 mm Price here in Germany: 29 € versus 44 € Gerhard PS: hope the crude table formatting goes through
