Nice TDE screenshots
by Alexandre 20 Jan '14

20 Jan '14

Hi everyone here! Here is some cool screenshots of my PCLinuxOS TDE setup that I just wanted to show. It is different from stock TDE, but it shows what could be done. The icon theme is KFaenza, the style is QTCurve. There are some SuperKaramba stuff and minimal TDEUI modifications. Have a nice day! -Alexandre

Fast easy way to convert jpg to pdf?
by Dan Youngquist 18 Jan '14

18 Jan '14

Is there a fast easy way to make images into PDF's? Something that does it from within Konqueror would be ideal. I'm sure there must be something, but I can't find it. KDE3 had kim, which added some image functions to konqueror's menu -- format convert, resize, and some other stuff. But it doesn't seem to be there in Trinity. -- PGP key: http://homestead-products.com/pubkey.htm

R14 and wheezy
by Nikolaus Klepp 18 Jan '14

18 Jan '14

Hi all! I just tried to install R14 on a clean installation of debian jessy, with little success: It failed due to binutils requirements. Is there a timeframe for this to be resolved? Nik -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA.

Display a message once after installation
by Alexandre 18 Jan '14

18 Jan '14

Hi! On the dev mailling list, Darrel Anderson wrote that he wanted a way to display a message just one time after the installation. Here is how it is made in my PCLinuxOS remaster (and the original too): A little script is placed in the Autostart folder of the users when users are created (/etc/skel is the default base user profile) It shows a little Zenity dialog and launch a web page. Once it is executed, the little script is auto-destroyed. As an attachement, I included the script. For more details of how it works, you can install my PCLinuxOS noin-official TDE remaster (in the LiveCD page of this website) and you'll be able to see it when a user log in for the first time. Of course, Zenity (GTK2) could be replaced by a TDE equivalent. Have a nice day! -Alexnadre

Automaticly start an application when a USB storage device is plugged in
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 06 Jan '14

06 Jan '14

Hi all! Maybe somebody has a good idea how to accomplish this with TDE stock tools: I want to start a specific program when a USB storage device is plugged in. On TDE a dialog window pops up with basicly 2 options: "mount" or "do nothing". I'd like to intercept that dialog and filter according to the device type/serial number/name (what ever works) either to start the defalt TDE dialog or my program. At the time of writing I am using udev to solve the problem. But obviousely I have problems launching TDE applitaions from that context.
