getting tid of trashcan on desktop

hi, good people . . . ever since kde 1.0 i have made a point of having *no* icons on my desktop. everything comes off of kicker or kmenu. today i did my usual daily update -- many things arrived -- and now i have an unremovable trashcan on my desktop. i do not object to having a trashcan. i have kept it as a nice little subdirectory off of ~/ for lo, these many years. this thing is not movable, though. i thought to find a desktop directory buried somewhere in ~/.trinity/ whence i could move it, but no joy. any idea how i can get rid of this thing? thanks! -- dep The shortest distance between you and great fingerstyle guitar playing?

konsole: how do I pass shift-right & shift-left to the shell?
by Nicolas Bercher 03 Apr '13

03 Apr '13

Hi, I'd like my bash session to receive shift-right & shift-left, but konsole (or any global trinity shortcut) seems to intercept them. I've search everywhere I could and didn't find anything to fix it. Is there a way to know which app or function is mapper to these shortcuts? How can I have a complete list of global shortcuts? Thanks, Nicolas

touchscreen does not work in menus
by Richard Lamboj 03 Apr '13

03 Apr '13

Good morning, i got some problems using my Fujitsu T730. General the touchscreen is working, but when i open a menu i can not click anything; mouse clicks are also not working. To get everything back working i need to press Esc. Sounds to my like a Bug? I think its more QT related, or? I was not only trying TDE 3.5.13.1, i also tried Slaveks upcoming 3.5.13.2 Release and the Nightly Snapshots of TDE R14. Kind Regards, Richard Lamboj

a small puzzle re. upgrading to slávek's repository
by dep 28 Mar '13

28 Mar '13

greetings, good people! my notebook machine now working properly for the first time in months through the upgrade to slávek's repository, i thought to do the same with my desktop machine (also running kubuntu 12.04) but even apt-get dist-upgrade holds back kdelibs-trinity. it's d/ling right now and i have a sense that i may be about to break things. am i right in assuming there is something wrong/i am doing something wrong here? thanks for any ideas that might be forthcoming. best, -- dep The shortest distance between you and playing great acoustic guitar: the great new instructional DVDs from Marjorie Thompson, available at www.MarjorieThompson.com

many thanks to all those who a.) programmed and packaged and b.) held my hand getting downloaded and installed slávek's repository. the kmail certificate issue appears to be resolved. and if i make it clear through the day without the LIST error popping up, i shall consider TDE perfection having been achieved and, therefore, the best of all possible computer desktops having finally arrived! thank you. -- dep The shortest distance between you and great fingerstyle guitar playing?

Would it be possible to package KBibTeX for Trinity?
by Jan Stolarek 27 Mar '13

27 Mar '13

I have a very humble request for Trinity developers. There's an application that used to be available for KDE3 but is not available for Trinity - KBibTeX v0.2.3. That application is essential to me at work. Lack of it for Trinity forces me to use an old linux distro with KDE3 on one of my machines so that I have access to that appliaction. Would it be possible to package KBibTeX so that it is available for Trinity? The source code for KBibTeX is available here: http://www.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/~fischer/kbibtex/download.html I will be very grateful to anyone who would be kind enough to resolve this! Janek

another kmail issue
by dep 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

well. beyond the hellish problem with tde refusing to believe it when i tell it to accept a certificate forever, which makes interval mail checking impossible, there is the "unable to complete LIST operation" error, which pops up now and again on a daily basis. i've read archives which suppose there is some malformed spam in the inbox causing this. but there isn't. and in due course it tends to go away without any intervention on my part. are there in existence workarounds for these? the patch for the certificate issue i have not been able to make compile -- surely there's a binary for the file involved, somewhere. the LIST issue i cannot find a solution for at all. both are after the upgrade to the current distribution for ubuntu 12.04. -- dep The shortest distance between you and great fingerstyle guitar playing?
