Thanks for that! Unfortunately the interesting part of the backtrace is not shown; you will need to press Return when prompted until you are dumped back at the (gdb) prompt then post the entire text block that gdb spat out. Also, on looking closer it seems that we did not build a debug symbols package for kpilot-trinity. I am fixing that right now, but testing would require you to update kpilot-trinity to the latest nightly builds and install the new kpilot-trinity-dbg package (once it builds that is!). Is this an option? > Where can I find the full build log? Just set Konsole or similar to an unlimited line history, then issue the dpkg-buildpackage command against a freshly downloaded pacakge and wait for the error. Copy everything after the dpkg-buildpackage command (including the command itself) into a new text file and attach that file to a reply message. :-) Tim -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iFYEARELAAYFAlSvOLwACgkQLaxZSoRZrGGQ0ADgs0eqygTmT6cgzHiJ9Gq9huBg 7gjRf3gXxZHaFwDdHlLr7FuI/xW4QH4bZ08PhotUp2E66WW24DTndw== =JvIB -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Recent outage
by Timothy Pearson 08 Jan '15

08 Jan '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA224 All, As you are probably already aware at around 13:20 GMT 01/07/2015 all TDE services went offline. This was due to a widespread power outage; to make matters worse the site's backup generator froze and did not start in time due to the extreme cold in the area. All services should now be restored, however as this was a full outage I expect that there may be some remaining issues that I am not yet aware of. Please let me know if you see anything still down or malfunctioning at this point. As always we need your support to stay online! If you can, please help the project stay online: https://trinitydesktop.org/donate.php Thank you for your patience!

K3B-Trinity will not install on R14
by Marc Chénier 07 Jan '15

07 Jan '15

I use Ubuntu Precise with the R14.0.0 TDE desktop on an amd64 system. I tried to install k3b-trinity with apt-get install and then with apt-get -f install. I have never had problems beforehand installing new packages with apt-get. The reply I get (in French) translates to something like : +++++++++ Certain packages cannot be installed... The following packages have unmet dependancies : k3b-trinity : Depend: libk3b3-trinity (= 4:14.0.0-r201-0ubuntu12.04.0+pr34) but 4:14.0.0-s-0ubuntu12.04.0+0 is to be installed Depend: k3b-data-trinity (= 4:14.0.0-r201-0ubuntu12.04.0+pr34) but 4:14.0.0-s-0ubuntu12.04.0+0 is to be installed E: Impossible to correct problems, the defective paquages are in « garder en l'état » mode. ++++++++ My understanding (am i correct?) is that k3b-trinity depends on 2 packages older than what I have on my computer (I checked). So what can i do to install k3b so that I can burn a new tde-live-disk for my "new" hand-me-down laptop? Thanks in advance. Marc

Libreoffice interface problem in R14

Amarok files limit
by Dave 05 Jan '15

05 Jan '15

I've noticed a problem with Amarok. I seems it cannot scan and catalog into the database any more than 12607 music files. Does not matter if it's with SQLite or MySQL. the progress bar climbs to 13 percent and never advances eventually disappears, showing a partial collection list. it does stop indexing but there are over 60,000 files in the music directory. I can use the files tab and "grab the music directory" and drag to playlist, and about 40 mins later all files show up in playlist, and they do play and have tag info, but collection tab doesn't show all that are in the playlist. Doesn't seem to leave any clue in a log file. All files have the same owner:group and attributes. amarok-1.14.10 in Trinity-3.5.13.2 on Debian Wheezy

DCOP error
by Robby Kitchen 04 Jan '15

04 Jan '15

I just installed TDE R14.0.0 on top of a Xubuntu 14.04 install, going through Synaptic. Everything went very smooth, it was done in just a few minutes and the pc restarted and logged in using the same password I had for Xubuntu, since TDE did not ask me to set a password. I just assumed that is what I needed to use. Everything was going good, I was just going through the Control Center exploring trying to get familiar with the settings, until I came across one, (I don't remember now which one), but it needed a password before I could open it to make changes. I put in the same password I had just used, but got an error message saying that wasn't the right password. Just to be sure I knew what I was doing, I rebooted and logged back in the second time with the Xubuntu password. However I could not get that password to work for anything other than logging in. I even tried to reset my password using that one, but again it said incorrect password. So I did some research on the internet, and found instructions on how to reset a users password, by booting into advanced options and going to the recovery settings, opening a command line, and typing in "password <usenamer>", so I did that and set up another password I would remember easily. Rebooted, got back to log-in screen, put the new password in, and an error msg popped up, something about not being the right password. Then gave me an error about "DCOP server error no read access to $home unable to start". I restarted tried the old password, and the new password both about three times, while searching the internet on another pc, trying to troubleshoot and find the problem, I didn't find very much and what I did find, didn't work; I tried going back into advanced start options and change password back, it failed, saying that it wasn't secure enough. I completely understand the need to keep things and people safe, and not everybody needs access to certain parts of the OS, however I feel that if I don't want a password, I should not be forced to use one. The whole point of Linux is to use what you like, and not be forced to do what someone you've never me thinks you should do. I could use a different D/E, that wouldn't require a password for anything but the terminal, but then it wouldn't be TDE. I used TDE for about 3 weeks a long time ago, then Ubuntu upgraded and TDE was no longer supported, because a different file system or something was used, and when I emailed the support people, I was told it probably wouldn't be upgraded, At least that what the email I got said. So I have just been checking in periodically to see if it ever came back up, and was very happy to see it had. . I really like TDE, so I am hoping I can find an easy fix for this. I installed it last night just before gong to bed, so it's been installed less than 12 hours right now, it wouldn't be a big deal to reinstall from here. Other than being annoying and aggregating. Has anyone seen this error, and know how to correct it? I searched google for a while before writing in, and could not find anything that actually works for me. I generally avoid this kind of issue since it's very easy to bork a system, if your not careful. Thank You Robby Kitchen

L.S.

Timeouts and/or mirror
by rolf 03 Jan '15

03 Jan '15

Hi, first of all I wish everybody out there a happy and successfull new year and happy hacking. Now my questions: I get a lot of timeouts when I try to update trinity. Mostly because "Translation"-files where not be found. Are they really needed? Second I would to know, if there are mirrors of the trinity repositories, perhaps faster ones near by. Fine regards Rolf

That's *very* painful to read b) I don't use Ubuntu, but I have LO running on R14/Wheezy and no UI problem, so your problem must be Ubuuntu-related and not TDe-related. By the way, I installed LO from the LO site, so maybe your problem is caused by settings chosen by Ubuntu that now are no more satisfied? Regards, Thierry

secure desktop area popup
by David Emerson 03 Jan '15

03 Jan '15

When I use my kvm switch to switch to another computer (well .. it is actually just K/M, I have video monitors attached to both so I can see both) then TDE puts up the "secure desktop area" dialog, hiding my desktop. It says <username> is currently logged on, and gives options for Lock Session, Task Manager, Logoff, Menu, Cancel. How can I disable this "secure desktop area" dialog? I never want to see it again. If I switch my keyboard and mouse away from this computer, I want to continue to see whatever was showing before. Thanks! ~David.
