tdebase handbooks
by Darrell Anderson 10 May '24

10 May '24

This is a developer question but I am posting here as well. Perhaps somebody can help. I'm building 14.1.2 packages on Slackware 15.0 using the ray-v build scripts. The default in those scripts is not to build any handbooks. I have been tweaking the scripts to compile the handbooks. For some reason the related handbooks never compile in the tdebase package. The handbooks are compiling in other packages. The DBUILD_DOC="ON" option is set. The tdebase sources contain the related docbook files. I do not notice anything in the build log, but I don't really know what to look for. What should I look for that might cause the handbooks to not build only in tdebase? Thanks for any guidance.

TDE R14.1.2 released, new target started…
by Slávek Banko 09 May '24

09 May '24

Hi all, after R14.1.2 was released, the window for the development of R14.1.3 has already been opened. The first pull-requests have already been merged, new translations are merged, the first builds of the packages was launched. If you used the Preliminary Stable Builds repository only temporarily, and you prefer to stick on the official final release, it is now the best time to switch to the official repository. The packages in both repositories are identical for some time, so it is smooth to change the apt source if you want. Otherwise, we will be happy if you help us in testing the upcoming release. Publishing the first R14.1.3 preliminary packages I suppose on 8 May. You can stay up to date on TDE news and development by following our Mastodon channel https://floss.social/@tde If you can, please help supporting the project with a donation. https://www.trinitydesktop.org/donate.php Thank you for your support! Cheers Slávek --

How to update the list of screensaver modules?
by J Leslie Turriff 09 May '24

09 May '24

KDE3 has a large supply of screensaver modules which I wanted to explore, so I copied the contents of /usr/lib/xscreensaver and appended the contents to mine; but they don't appear in TDE's list of screensavers. How can I refresh the list? Leslie -- Platform: Linux Distribution: openSUSE Leap 15.5 - x86_64 Desktop Environment: Trinity Qt: 3.5.0 TDE: R14.1.2 tde-config: 1.0

wayland and tde ?
by trinitydesktop.9dio1＠simplelogin.com 07 May '24

07 May '24

This is related to my gnome/tde coexist question earlier, but nevertheless, a general question about tde. I am not familiar with the nuances of using the new Wayland X-window replacement that Debian and others are pushing. I noticed that some wayland-related packages are installed when gnome is installed. gnome and wayland are both the default for debian/12.5./bookworm Since I normally do not use wayland, but rather use nvidia commercial drivers for x-windows provided by debian package system, I am unsure about wayland. If I run gnome, am I also running wayland ? Related, if I run tde, will it work with wayland ?

kmail templates
by J Leslie Turriff 07 May '24

07 May '24

In kmail, Settings => Composer contains "Templates" and "Custom Templates" tabs, and Folder => Properties also has a "Templates" tab. It seems to me I remember someone here saying that he uses templates to autofill the To field of new emails; which of these three provides that capability? The Help Center manual for kmail mentions none of them, but has information for a "Phrases" tab in Settings => Composer, which I suppose was superceded by the templates?

where Fahrenheit?
by Hunter Graham 06 May '24

06 May '24

Forgive the blunt, almost diminuitive and memetic-sounding subject line, but for some reason -- at least on Debian bookworm -- the Fahrenheit windeco isn't showing up as an option despite even a clean install of 14.1.2 and confirmation that I did install the package. What's going on there? - hunter graham

Okay, I've upgraded to R14.1.2. Was it intentional that all of my Appearance and Themes (Colors, Fonts, etc.) be reset from my preferred settings? Leslie -- Platform: Linux Distribution: openSUSE Leap 15.5 - x86_64 Desktop Environment: Trinity Qt: 3.5.0 TDE: R14.1.2 tde-config: 1.0

pointer size adjust
by Felix Miata 06 May '24

06 May '24

Where in KControl or elsewhere does one go to make pointer and I-bar large enough to notice? In peripherals is only (4) mouse cursor themes, where exist no controls for any sizes. The pointer in TDM is about 4X as large as in TDE sessions, and appropriate for my needs. Is there a separate package to provide pointer controls that isn't required in a base installation? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.
