Hi I'm Michael (k3lt01) and I am the lead (read only) person involved in
CobberLinux (1) or Cobber for short.
The intent behind Cobber is to create an Australasian Linux that is easy to
use and suits the countries in Australasia. I have created my own
repository (using reprepro) and it is hosted on sourceforge (2). To give
Australasian users a wide variety of choices I am creating different
flavours or Cobber using different Desktop Environments. My intent is to
support, via translation and repository hosting if need be, Desktop
Environments who support Cobber's Australasian users. By this I mean
Desktop Environments that allow and encourage users to have their own
language (or national language) as standard in the distribution.
Now that I have briefly explained Cobber I have 2 questions for you.
1. How do I translate Trinity Desktop Environment into Australian (New
Zealand, Papua New Guinean) English? I have a transifex account (user name
k3lt01) and a script to do automatic translations. I have already
translated MATE, XFCE, and Pidgin messenger and will translate Gnome and
KDE when I get the time (they have a massive amount of pot files to work
through).
2. Would you like, or even allow, me to host your packages in Cobber's
sourceforge repository so that cobber users have a geographically close
mirror to access?

Hi Guys,
Just had a friend call me and tell me that all the text in his
applications and logout window has disapeared !
He is running Alexandre's PCLinuxOS with the Trinity desktop.
I don't have a clue where to look to sort this issue.
Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks in advance:

Wheezy amd 64, TDE 3.5.13.2.
I use Gwenview to view .tiff files, these are Architectural D drawings
scanned to .tiff. They range in size: 350K>1.1M.
The feature I kike about Gwenview as a viewer is I can view a directory
full of tiff files and browse thru them using the toolbar.
The downside, it seems, is that after viewing about 10 or so files all
8gb of memory is used, all other apps have been swapped out so checking
mail or any other task is slow ..actually the workstation becomes to
slow to be productive.
Memory is not released between file views..is this normal? This is
first app I have noticed using all memory so quickly..seems unusual.
Thanks

I would like to use Compton with TDE is it possible? I have tried a few things but have yet to get it to work on login. I can manually start it after login but can't make it autostart.

Hi John,
Did you had a look there: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Compton
It explains how to do what you want I think.
Hope this can help you :-)

I recieve construction drawings as pdf"s. These are ARCH D = 24x36 or
ANSI D = 22x34. I view them in kpdf, I print them to my printer using
Tabloid, paper size = 11x17.
Only an 8x11 image gets printed on the 11x17 page.. Can not figure out
how to get the correct size image, seems like shrink to fit, or some
such were options. Do not see any such in the kpdf print dialog.
Using krinter to print the same file it prints an 11x17 portion of the
larger file size.
kpdf has a different print dialog than kprinter...?,
Using cups, server:/var/run/cups/cups.sock

Hi,
I'm sorry for the shortcomings you may experience with it.
This means that Trinity package for PCLinuxOS aren't 100% compatible with the newer packages used on PCLinuxOS. As of now, you can use the system as is after the install, but without upgrading it.
I'll work at making the new version of it available very soon. It will have newer kernel (better hardware support) and the TDE packages are built against the new libraries used in the present version of PCLinuxOS. Coming soon!
There is currently no plans to make a 64 bit version of my remaster, since 64 bit machines has enough power to handle more than TDE, but there is always the possibility to change the Kernel to one that supports more RAM on 32 bit machines.

Hello Trinity-Team,
I use ark very offen and would like to open archive files with special
editors for example php-files with geany.
When I select the file and use the function "open with", select geany
it will be open with geany.
But when I check the checkbox to make the selected tool the default for
this type of file ark didn't remember this settings and allway show the
files with the internal viewer.
Is there a trick to change this behavior - as it was in old kde 3.5?
Many thanks for your suggestions
Rolf
