X cursor
by Calvin Morrison 25 Jun '12

25 Jun '12

Hi All, I use my laptop at work via X11 forwarding (to my main desktop which is a mac). I usually initiate a ssh session and then run: /opt/trinity/bin/kdeinit -no-kded This starts a kde session without the kded daemon (which launches kicker and kdesktop and so). For some reason however my X cursor isn't set properly, and instead it's the very ugly default one (which drives me insane), instead of the one I set in kcontrol. This only happens on x11 forwarding and not on my local sessions. Anyone have any ideas? Calvin

21 Jun '12

Hi! I just came across a strange problem on my T60: kpowersave says, 2:45 remaining charge acpi -b says, 2:12 remaining charge the acpi reading is correkt, kpowersave is wrong. What is more anoying, kpowersave "hangs" at 50%, while in reality the charge goes down to 0%. Anyone seen this before? Nik -- Mag.

A recent update updated lot of packages on Centos 5. Then next update try to replace x86_64 libs by i686 libs with lot of unresolved dependencies. yum check-update gives: > Obsoleting Packages > tdelibs.i686 3.5.13-9.el6.opt trinity-3.5.13-el5 > trinity-kdelibs.x86_64 3.5.13-8.el5.opt installed > tdelibs-devel.i686 3.5.13-9.el6.opt trinity-3.5.13-el5 > trinity-kdelibs-devel.x86_64 3.5.13-8.el5.opt installed Fortunately, installing tdelibs.x86_64 solves the problem. -- Philippe BOURDEU d'AGUERRE AIME - Campus de l'INSA http://www.aime-toulouse.fr/ 135 av. de Rangueil Tél +33 561 559 885 31077 TOULOUSE Cedex 4 - FRANCE Fax +33 561 559 870

problems installing trinity in oneiric - ubuntu 11.10
by Lou Gogan 19 Jun '12

19 Jun '12

Hi I downloaded ubuntu 11.10 and installed it onto a spare partition. I then followed the installation outlined on the TDE website sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install kubuntu-default-settings-trinity kubuntu-desktop-trinity after an hour of downloading kde 3.5.13 apt-get install was doing what it should have been doing BUT then I got the following error message: ~~~~~~~~~ start ~~~~~~~~ Extracting templates from packages: 100% Preconfiguring packages ... dpkg: sudo: dependency problems, but removing anyway as you requested: ubuntu-minimal depends on sudo. gksu depends on sudo. (Reading database ... 135124 files and directories currently installed.) Removing sudo ... You have asked that the sudo package be removed, but no root password has been set. Without sudo, you may not be able to gain administrative privileges. If you would prefer to access the root account with su(1) or by logging in directly, you must set a root password with "sudo passwd". If you have arranged other means to access the root account, and you are sure this is what you want, you may bypass this check by setting an environment variable (export SUDO_FORCE_REMOVE=yes). Refusing to remove sudo. dpkg: error processing sudo (--remove): subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 1 No apport report written because MaxReports is reached already Errors were encountered while processing: sudo E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) ~~~~~~~~~ end ~~~~~~~~ When I logged out and back in again there was no sign of Trinity or kde3 in the login menu I presume I am not the first person to have tried to install kde 3.5.13 on ubuntu 11.10. Can anyone advise me? I presume this isn't a beta version of kde3. 1. Should the installation script have attempted to remove sudo? (I'm no expert but that doesn't seem right.) 2. How can I try and start the kde desktop? 3. For future reference, if I had installed Kubuntu 11.10 instead of Ubuntu would the download of kde 3.5.13 have been any shorter? Any help would be appreciated (though for the moment I'll stick to my trusted kubuntu 8.04). Thanks Lou

Flash 11 + Firefox 13 = badness
by Peter Laws 18 Jun '12

18 Jun '12

As in, the browser freezes as soon as it sees Flash content. All was well until I updated the other morning. Versions are currently Firefox 13.0 and Flash 11.2.202.235 all on Ubuntu natty with Trinity 3.5.13. Ideas for workarounds? Flash seems to work OK in Chrome, but I really prefer Firefox. -- Peter Laws / N5UWY National Weather Center / Network Operations Center University of Oklahoma Information Technology plaws(a)ou.edu College of Architecture, Regional and City Planning, MRCP '16 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Feedback?

KWallet did not ask me for my password and the daemon seems not to be running. Have to enter passwords each time I do something in kmail. not good. Kopete would be affected if it ran.
