libogg0 conflicts with libogg0:i386 under ubuntu precise

by Stefan Endrullis

Hi folks, I'm using trinity on a 64 bit Ubuntu precise (12.04) installation and I want to report a very annoying bug caused by a package conflict of libogg0 from the trinity repository: https://bugs.launchpad.net/trinity-desktop/+bug/977103 Since trinity's libogg0 conflicts with Ubuntu libogg0:i386 several 32 bit applications such as adobe reader can no longer be installed on 64 bit trinity installations. Is there really a conflict between libogg0 and libogg0:i386 that needs to be in the package definition or can one just remove this tag? Best Regards, Stefan

updating debian - eight packages to be removed?

by ant

I tested what would happen if I did an upgrade (admittedly using synaptic, since I knew I could cancel it). I got this message (amongst others): ---------------- kdebase-kio-plugins-trinity will be removed kdebase-runtime-data-common-trinity will be removed kdebase-trinity will be removed kdesktop-trinity will be removed kmail-trinity will be removed konqueror-nsplugins-trinity will be removed konqueror-trinity will be removed ksmserver-trinity will be removed ----------------- Am I right in thinking that - for example - kmail would go? Any obvious reason why? Or am I missing something obvious? Here is the sources.list I would use (which has produced a working system, so far): deb-src http://ftp.nz.debian.org/debian/ jessie main non-free contrib deb http://ftp.nz.debian.org/debian/ jessie main non-free contrib deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-v3.5.13/debian wheezy main deb-src http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-v3.5.13/debian wheezy main deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-builddeps-v3.5.1… wheezy main deb-src http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-builddeps-v3.5.1… wheezy main deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free cheers ant -- Sent from my linux system running Debian 7, desktop trinity-KDE.

dependency to deprecated hal package

by Stefan Endrullis

Hello, I recently upgraded to Ubuntu trusty and discovered some problems with hal. I read that hal is deprecated and that I have to purge the package in order to get rid of the problems. Unfortunately kdebase-kio-plugins-trinity depends on hal, because of some hotplug/automount features I could easily give up on the hotplug/automount feature. But kdebase-kio-plugins-trinity contains also the protocol support for ftp, http, ... - essential parts of trinity. What's the future of this package? Is it possible to convert the "strong dependency" to hal into a "package suggestion" and to eventually implement some fallback strategies if hal is not available (just deactivating all hal features)? Regards, Stefan

Fast easy way to change languages?

by Dan Youngquist

This is for a machine that is used by 2 users on the same login, one English speaking and one Spanish speaking. Is there a fast easy way for them to switch between languages, like an applet? They can do it via Control Center, but I'd like to save them a few clicks each time if possible. This is R14 on Debian Wheezy. -- PGP key: http://homestead-products.com/pubkey.htm

R14 network-manager applet trouble

by Dan Youngquist

(R14 on Wheezy) I installed network-manager-tde, which works fine, but nm-applet still runs and shows up as a (I think) 2x2 pixel dot, like it did in 13.2. I can't uninstall network-manager-gnome because XFCE also has to be available, and needs a network applet. Is there a way to make nm-applet not run, or at least not show up, in TDE? Or maybe a way to make it show up correctly so I can uninstall network-manager-tde? -- PGP key: http://homestead-products.com/pubkey.htm

R14 TDEPowersave showing 2nd battery

by Dan Youngquist

(R14 on Debian Wheezy, on an HP 2510p laptop) TDEPowersave shows a second battery that doesn't exist. It shows as 'Battery 1', and today is showing 100% charge, but yesterday showed 0%. The real battery shows as 'Battery 2'. Any fix for this? -- PGP key: http://homestead-products.com/pubkey.htm

TDM/kdm is running and lets me log in, but then I only get an xterm entitled "Failsafe"

by Jagged O'Neill

High again, that was a short trip into paradise... After playing around a bit in TDE, and additionally installing some other handy software (xmms, geeqie, povray, and some others), I just wanted to start copying some files from the old to the new box. But I had chosen a default disk partitioning at install-time, and my /home was only 25GB, which I then wanted to resize. Not knowing what it is all about (first-timer), I followed the recommen- dation to do the resizing when the FS is not mounted, so I logged out, set off `umount /home`, which failed, because some trinity processes did not exit and held files open. Such things happens even with the best software around, so I didn't find it suspicious enough to jot down the files and processes (and I'm still not sure whether they are (one of) the reason(s) for what has happened then. I resized the volume for the /home FS, which was done in a second, rebooted, logged on in TDM as before, but was presented only with one single xterm. No window manager, no kicker, nothing from the previous session... nothing at all... Meanwhile I found my way to the freenode#trinity-desktop channel, where SlavekB tried to help me out with this already. No error output in .xsession-errors; I ran /opt/trinity/bin/kdm manually, redirecting it's stdout and stderr to some files... no output... sure, it writes to a "custom file", namely /var/log/kdm.log, which was already beyond 100MB when I checked. This is, however, full of some lines that say (II) AIGLX: Suspending AIGLX clients for VT switch which happens far too often, but either before or after the TDE session doesn't come up. I just moved all the old log out of my way, to see what it is actually printing when things go wrong. The startup merely copied the X servers log, and it was 68 lines long when the SAK screen appeared, (fortunately) only one of which was such an (II) line as mentioned. After logging in, the log file grew by only two lines, the following ones: QWidget::setMinimumSize: The smallest allowed size is (0,0) QWidget::setMaximumSize: (unnamed/QDialog) Negative sizes (-1,-1) are not possible what's that? I can't imagine that these lines are a description of the reason for the malfunction. Even before I asked for help on freenode, I tried some possibly curative actions on my own. I moved ~/.trinity to ~/.trinity.old, in the hope there was just something wrong with my config... I also moved other files out of the way of a new session, of which I thought they might have to do with the desktop environment, as there are: ~/.dbus ~/.kderc ~/.qt ~/.xcompmgrrc In the older kdm.log I also found the following message: kdm_config [935] info: Cannot open master configuration file /opt/trinity/share/config/kdm/kdmdistrc That file does indeed not exist, and after I looked into that dir, and read the README file, I used /opt/trinity/bin/genkdmconf --no-old to create a new config, but it was actually the same as the old one, except it had SAK enabled, which SlavekB suggested to deactivate, to see if that may be the reason... there were/are no other trinity processes running before the login and after the failure to ignite the session, just kdm is happily running with nothing to do, and some SAK processes if enabled... Any further suggestions? Thanks in advance, best regards, Jagged -- valgrind python -c 'for i in range(1,1): print(i)' 2>&1 | grep error
