Sharing printers
by multi 27 Dec '14

27 Dec '14

Hi, I have just installed exe linux with the Trinity desktop (exe is basically debian 7) and I am trying to share a local USB printer (HP Deskjet 1000). I checked the "Shared" box in CUPS but it still can't be found by other networked computers. I installed system-config-printer and it opened showing that the printer is shared. Any ideas? Also, I was going to include the version of Trinity in the first line, but I don't know how to find that. I usually open synaptic to find what versions are installed, but it's not listed under the name Trinity. Thanks, Don

sorting entries in kmenu
by dep 26 Dec '14

26 Dec '14

this has always been an issue for me, and it occurs to me that maybe there's an easy solution that i've just never happened upon. in kmenu i have numerous applications in menus and submenus, many of which i use only occasionally. it would be great if there were a way to have the submenus list them in alphabetical order and indeed some setting that keeps it that way as new applications are added. is there such a setting, someplace? thanks. -- dep The shortest distance between you and playing great acoustic guitar: the great new instructional DVDs from Marjorie Thompson, available at www.MarjorieThompson.com

Possible problems with mime-libs and LibreOffice
by rolf 24 Dec '14

24 Dec '14

Hi, after update a Debian Squeeze (LTS) to R14, I get an error when try to open a file from within LibreOffice. I get the error-message: "Wrong mime type" and the question, if the mime library is installed. With TDE-3.13.2 I never get this message. The tde-mime-type libs are installed. Can some one confirm? Many thanks and best christmas greetings from Germany Rolf

where did my kmail address book go?
by dep 24 Dec '14

24 Dec '14

after the upgrade to R14, my kmail address book seems to have disappeared. (frankly, i've been a little cross ever since the simple one-line-per-address, plain text address book was deprecated ages ago in an attempt to be More Like Windows, but never mind.) when i sought to use it after the upgrade, it was entirely empty. did i miss a step? did it get moved? any recovery possible? thanks. -- dep The shortest distance between you and playing great acoustic guitar: the great new instructional DVDs from Marjorie Thompson, available at www.MarjorieThompson.com

WEP connection problem
by Robert Peters 23 Dec '14

23 Dec '14

Hello, My Lubuntu installation has been able to connect to a network secured with WPA2 and to another with WEP. My TDE installation, from the recent Exegnu live CD, can connect to the same WPA2 network but not to the WEP one - the authentication fails. Right now the WEP network is the only one available to me, and I hope to be able to use it to upgrade TDE. Does the following info suggest anything? $ sudo lspci -vv | grep Wireless 03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 7260 (rev 83) Subsystem: Intel Corporation Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 $ lsmod | grep iwl iwlmvm 189813 0 mac80211 630653 1 iwlmvm iwlwifi 169932 1 iwlmvm cfg80211 484040 3 iwlwifi,mac80211,iwlmvm <part of /var/log/syslog> Dec 18 20:04:52 r dhclient: Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client 4.3.1 Dec 18 20:04:52 r dhclient: Copyright 2004-2014 Internet Systems Consortium.

Problem with installation on ubuntu-10-04
by rolf 22 Dec '14

22 Dec '14

Hi, I try to install trinity r14 on an ubuntu 10-04-LTS-System following the advice of the Web-site. I allways get a timeout when the command aptitude install kubuntu-default-settings-trinity kubuntu-desktop-trinty try to fetch the packages. Why? Network is up and running and aptitude update has fetched the repository data and I can see the trinity-packages in aptitude. Fine regards Rolf

Trinity settings files?
by Michael . 22 Dec '14

22 Dec '14

I finally got Trinity installed, the package download took 90 minutes (I'm assuming the server is still being throttled by traffic) and it looks good. I am working through various things so I can set Cobber-Trinity up for end users in Australasia. So I have some questions. 1. I want to set the background (and other visual settings) via /etc/skel/ so that each new user automatically has a certain background (national flag), theme, desktop icons, menu type, etc.. What is the settings file(s) in TDE to accomplish this, and where is it located in the users home directory? 2. There doesn't appear to be a setting for touchpads to work like mice (e.g. touchpad tap opens file like a left click opens a file). Is there a settings or settings file somewhere that can accomplish this? I'm sure I'll have more questions but this will do for the moment. Cheers. Michael.
