Hello, Recently, the icon of korganizer-trinity was in the down taskbar, on the right. Now, it has disappeared. "Execute a command" on the desktop => korganizer : it opens, but at next reboot, the icon of korganizer has disappeared again. How to maintain the icon in the taskbar ? Thanks, Cheers André

Setting Konsole options

by J Leslie Turriff

I've just installed a package that includes some components that run in a terminal session. The package installed various application icons in KMenu. When I start the component that runs in a terminal, a Konsole session pops up, then immediately closes. See the attached image while reading further. If I open KMenu's Menu Editor to edit the entry it provides only the 'Run in terminal check box', but not the 'Do not close when command exits checkbox'; the only way to access that checkbox is to add the application to the screen's menu bar, right-click the icon, select the 'Configure <program> button...' option, select the Application tab in the Properties dialog, click on 'Advanced Options', and finally the ''Do not close when command exits checkbox' appears. Shouldn't the 'Do not close when command exits checkbox' be presented in the Menu Editor's window as well?

Safe to remove program icons on Trinity Desktop without removing the apps themselves?

by jim_gunn＠yahoo.com

I'm brand new to Linux and just installed the Trinity desktop with Q4OS on a older pc. One thing I am unclear about- are the shortcut icons on the Trinity desktop that came with my distro installation for example, LibreOffice or Thunderbird able to be deleted or removed from the desktop without removing the apps themselves just like on a Windows desktop where the icons are just shortcuts and can be deleted safely without removing the apps themselves?

Important backport for TDE R14.1.0 packages

by Slávek Banko

Hi everyone, some users of RPM-based distros reported high CPU usage and general slowness when upgrading from R14.0.x to R14.1.0. The issue has been investigated and the problem resolved in R14.1.1-devel (see https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/tde/tde/issues/128). Given the severity of the problem, we have decided to backport the required fixes and release updated builds of the affected packages for R14.1.0. Although the problem only showed up on specific RPM distros, packages have been updated for all distros for consistency. Please make sure you update to the latest available version of all tqt3 and tdelibs packages in your distribution. If you are a PSB/PTB user, you should have already received or will receive the fixes as part of the last/next update. Cheers The TDE dev team

Toggle keyboard layout + xkbd @ TDE R14.1.0

by Petr Palacký

Hi folks, after upgrading to R14.1.0 I miss the old way of switching between keyboard layouts with Ctrl+Alt+K. It looks like the option to NOT use xkbd is missing and the only option to toggle is now xkbd. In addition, the keyboard model setting apparently stopped working, in my case "Dell Latitude laptop" - some functions no longer work, e.g. Fn+F1 (for sleep) or Fn+F5 (for touchpad toggle) or Fn+Arrows (for brightness level). Everything worked for over a decade before the upgrade. I prefer TDE because its basic functions have not fundamentally changed since the KDE3 era, and after twenty years of using the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+K, I have a hard time getting used to the "new" shortcuts. Is there any way to revert back to the original keyboard shortcut for switching the keyboard layout? Many thanks Best regards -- Petr Palacky Outgoing message is virus free because we are using Linux. Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm), kernel 6.1.0-2-amd64.

Konsole 'Edit Bookmarks' dialog's Toolbar ignores changes

by J Leslie Turriff

When I try to customize Konsole's 'Edit Bookmarks' dialog's Toolbar by right-clicking the bar and dragging in additional tools, my changes are ignored. When I use Settings => Configure Toolbars..., that works; but I almost never use the Settings menu for that, because not all applications have the option there.

How to disable web browsing in Konqueror?

by Michael

Since we’re chatting about Konqueror, is there an easy way to either disable its web browsing features or block its off-box access? I love Konq, but it occasional (very rarely, but happened earlier this week) thinks a file I click is a web page instead of opening it in a local program (KWrite, LibreOffice, or whatever). Thanks, Michael

Panels only appear on desktop #1

by J Leslie Turriff

I've installed Trinity R14.10 on a new laptop, and it has the default four desktops configured, but the main panel only appears on desktop #1. I don't remember seeing this happen on any of my previous installs. I have made minimal changes to the desktop settings, just removing default wallpaper, setting fonts, and such, so this is a bit odd.
