What is KWrite called in TDE14? (From teh point of view of installing it.) I do hope that I am not going to be told that it has been abandoned. :-( Thanks, Lisi

Audio tag editor
by Nicolas Dobigeon 06 Feb '15

06 Feb '15

Hello, I'm a "MusicBrainz Picard" user. It's an advanced audio tagger which can connect to a big DB on the web to tag your mp3. It's a very powerfull and strong software. You can detect songs and autotags them, select the tag version (v1+v2, only v2, only v3, utf8 data, AINSI data, etc ...). I stronlgy recommande it but am thinking about using a native tde mp3 tagger. Do you use an equivalent of my one ? What is the software you use ? Thanks for your feedback ;) Nicolas D.

No sound on Debian_8 with TDE_R14
by Nicolas Dobigeon 04 Feb '15

04 Feb '15

Hello, I just tryed to install TDE R14 on my new notepad (Lenovo G50-70). All worked with the base desktop (Gnome) but when i installed an used TDE, it can't play any sound with ARTS. I don't know how to correct it. The sound card is working in other DE, the kernel module should be OK. I think there a config file to edit or something to do but i don't know what i should do. I request your help. I really want to use TDE. Thanks for your help. Nicolas D.

rollback to r23 possible?
by kanenas＠hawaii.rr.com 03 Feb '15

03 Feb '15

how can one roll back to r13 in 64 bit debian wheezy? The "force" option in synaptic is not available. would "complete removal" of r14, then a switch to r13 repos and subsequent install work?

Re: [Dng] Some downgrades may be needed e.g. cups Re: Towards systemd-free packages

( being on the two mailing lists I m cross posting on the TDE mailing list so they know devuan could be interested in supporting TDE . . . ) same here, TDE ( kde3 fork reacting to the unstable kde4 bloat ) : * have all the features I expect from a modern window manager * is very stable, even if you customize it changing many configuration options * have a very good and intuitive customization panel * is using much less resources than the more recent kde or gnome * have no plans on depending on systemd ever ( there are a few threads on the topic on the tde mailing list ) : http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::6629 "TDE will not intentionally introduce a hard dependency on systemd" I d also add that I often install linux to new users coming from the windows environment, the feedback from those users have always been very bad for kde4 and very good for kde3.

Trinity R14 & openSUSE 13.2-x86_64 cannot install - avahi dependency
by Larry Stotler 02 Feb '15

02 Feb '15

I added the trinity r14 repos for 13.2 (x84_64 & noarch) but when I try to install I get the following: Problem: trinity-desktop-14.0.0-1.oss132.opt.noarch requires trinity-tdebase >= 14.0.0, but this requirement cannot be provided uninstallable providers: trinity-tdebase-14.0.0-1.oss132.opt.x84_64[x86_64] When I look in Software Management under YaST I find that tdebase requires tdelibs and tdelibs requires avahi. I don't use avahi and don't install it like I dont install apparmour, pulseaudio, gimp, nepomuk, etc Is there a way to remove this as a dependency? One of the issues I've had with linux distros for the 17 years I've used it is the unneccessary dependecies that pull in unneeded or unwanted sotware. Thanx for improving KDE 3.5.x. I still can't stand what they did with KDE4.

Trinity mirrors?
by Thierry de Coulon 28 Jan '15

28 Jan '15

Hello all, This week end I again tried some install (trying to build a "video editing machine" around KdenLive and LightWorks - faily impressed by the later) and could not install Trinity (404 on one of the main repositories). This made me think we need mirrors. While I can imagine not many could mirror everything, maybe some could mirror TDE at least for one distribution. What are the requirements (here I mean disk space)? Of course the next question is traffic but this I would have to look were I am hosted. Have a nice day, Thierry

Fault in font in message body in KMail
by Lisi Reisz 28 Jan '15

28 Jan '15

KMail on TDE 3.5.13.2 on Wheezy, all fully updated. Because my husband had an eye operation today I wanted to enlarge everything in KMail for him. I cannot enlarge the text in the message body. After about ten tries the font changed from serif to sans-serif, but that is all. When I change the message body setting, the headers change, be they long or short - but he doesn't want to read those. The text of the email remains stubbornly tiny. The date in the message list also fails to change font. The rest changes! I have tried to have everything fully updated, but am getting: <normal updating> Err http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net wheezy Release.gpg Could not connect to ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net:80 (108.166.152.51), connection timed out Fetched 935 kB in 2min 0s (7,762 B/s) W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/slavek-banko/axis/ubuntu/dists/w…: Could not connect to ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net:80 (108.166.152.51), connection timed out W: Some index files failed to download.

The poor man can't read at the moment - and he now can't easily keep up with his email either! The eye problem is only temporary, so I would like to solve this fast! I wondered about just reinstalling KMail, but don't want to mess up his mail. Lisi
