WAS~~Re: Possible KMAIL bug? NOW:~~ POP / IMAP PROTOCOLS
by CHRIS M 07 Jun '24

07 Jun '24

You know, I had thought about switching to the IMAP protocol due to being able to switch to any email client I wanted to without having to constantly IMPORT and EXPORT my data. That's really the only PITA part, (pardon my expression) about POP. It just seems like life would be A LOT less stressful without having to worry about if I backed my email up or I decide to try a new email client and I don't have to piece together archive folders from one client to another etc. But OTOH, I do enjoy that my data is PRIVATE and that my mail provider can't pull a *YAHOO MAIL * and be like one day " Eh, you don't need those emails in your archive folder from 2016 / 2017. * POOF DELETED* without even asking the user if its okay. I know that, a hosted email provider WON'T DO THAT to someone, since we pay for the product to keep our valuable emails stored for us. Then again, look at what happened to poor Rackspace last year. Their Exchange server got hacked and had to pay ransom to get peoples data back and people still lost a lot of their emails that they had in the cloud. Do ya'll think its worth it? ============================================================ > THANKS IN ADVANCE! > > CHRIS > > CHRIS(a)CWM030.COM > > * Lenovo ThinkCentre M710q*~~~* 1 TB SSD*~~~*15.5 GiB of ram* > > ~~* Q4OS Trinity Edition* ~~

Display configuration troubles
by Thierry de Coulon 07 Jun '24

07 Jun '24

I use a Lenovo X390, MX-Linux 21.3, with one user using xfce (the "original" DE) and the other using TDE. When I plug in HDMI (for a beamer, in this case), xfce can easily be set up to mirror the display. When I use TDE and connect the Beamer (seen as HDMI-2), TDE automatically extends my screen to the beamer. xrandr -- output HDMI-2 --same-as eDP1 (where eDP-1 is the internal screen) does mirror the screen, but it remains extended. Now if I run "Configure Displays" and select "Enable local Display control for this session" (which was not activated), I do get the mirroring I am looking for. But if I click "Apply" the screen turn to psychedelic colours - seems to be wating for me to validate the choice, what I can't do and anyway would not as it's unusable. After a while the sceens returns to my desktop, albeit stil psychedelic, and I must log out / log in to get my desktop back. So for the time being that means I have to use xfce when I need the beamer. Anyone knows what's going on and what I should do to mirror my 1920x1080 screen to the HDMI beamer? Thierry

Intel SSD with openSUSE 15.5
by Gianluca Interlandi 07 Jun '24

07 Jun '24

Dear TDE users, This maybe unrelated to TDE. I wonder whether anybody has experience installing openSUSE 15.5 (along TDE of course) on a Intel SSD 2 TB. I was thinking about something like this: https://www.cdw.com/product/wd-blue-sa510-wds200t3b0a-ssd-2-tb-sata-6gb-s/7… The system is a Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop. If anybody has any other recommendations for a SSD to be used on a similar laptop, please let me know. Also, is there really any speed advantage to using the corresponding mechanical hard drive: https://www.cdw.com/product/wd-blue-wd20spzx-hard-drive-2-tb-sata-6gb-s/507… in such a system? Thanks, Gianluca ----------------------------------------------------- Gianluca Interlandi, PhD gianluca(a)u.washington.edu +1 (206) 685 4435 http://gianluca.today/research/ Department of Bioengineering University of Washington, Seattle WA U.S.A. -----------------------------------------------------

LWN.NET: Trinity keeps KDE 3 on life support
by Mike Bird 06 Jun '24

06 Jun '24

Sounds like a reviewer had issues with a HiDPI laptop. The article is here but a subscription is needed to view it before May 30th 2024: https://lwn.net/Articles/973130/ The discussion is visible in LWN's RSS feed. Thus far I see two short threads: https://lwn.net/Articles/974365/ https://lwn.net/Articles/974381/ Maybe TDE devs can add some useful info to the latter thread.

Possible KMAIL bug? Images in emails.
by Chris M 05 Jun '24

05 Jun '24

In KMAIL 1.9 for TDE, why can't I insert an image inside of my email? There is NO option to insert the image inside of the email. Some people might not like clicking on attachments and would rather you paste them directly into the body of the email, but with KMAIL 1.9, I noticed that we can't do that, the only option we have is to attach them??? ============================================================ THANKS IN ADVANCE!

New (Un)official TDE Discord Server
by jacobheinrich＠hotmail.com 04 Jun '24

04 Jun '24

Hey everyone, As previously discussed in a past email, I was interested in making a Discord server for TDE. Well, here it is! https://discord.gg/WngJ4jSX I will be boosting the server and give it a custom invite link shortly, but for now this one will be active. If you have a Discord, great, go ahead and join. If its not your thing, lets discuss that elsewhere. There is a large Linux community on Discord, and im hoping to be able to spread the reach of the TDE project. Discord is a fun platform to discuss these things.

Seamonkey Mail's tiny text
by Chris M 03 Jun '24

03 Jun '24

This is question is mostly for Felix, since he's prob the ONLY ONE that uses SeaMonkey Mail. Why is the font so small like in Deloptes's email https://imgur.com/a/xfm2ycy Even though, I've jacked the font sizes all the way up in Sea Monkey mail? https://imgur.com/a/Mqta3C2 ============================================================ THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Seamonkey as a browser = T.R.A.S.H!
by Chris M 02 Jun '24

02 Jun '24

I've been trying to use the sea monkey browser and: At first I couldn't get on Fcaebook. It just kept erroring out. I had to do this weird work around: EDIT > PREFERENCES > ADVANCED > HTTP NETWORKING And select " IDENTIFY AS SEAMONKEY" Close SM and re launch it, but now, I can't make a status on Facebook, or even comment on posts! I tried changing the user agent string, same thing... >:o The SM Email Client = LOVE IT. 8-) ============================================================ THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Anyone against me making a Discord server?
by jacobheinrich＠hotmail.com 01 Jun '24

01 Jun '24

Hey all, Long time TDE user, I would like to make a discord to help new users with issues regarding TDE, as well as maybe appealing to users around my age (mid 20s), I am currently in a couple other linux discord servers and they said it was a shame there was no Discord server for TDE. I want to make the solution to that problem, would anyone be against me making one?
