Hi All,
When selecting not to use any login splash there is nonetheless some
kind of mini startup dialog. The dialog does not appear when using a
splash or possibly is hidden by the splash. Is there a way to disable
this mini startup dialog? None should mean none.
Thanks for your time!

Hello,
I was thinking tonight that it would be nice if the Message List in kMail could show the
sizes of messages. Imagine my surprise when I looked at the Settings => Appearance,
Message List tab and discovered that there is such a setting, and it is turned on. (See
attached screenshot.)
Does anyone have an idea about why the size does not appear in the list?

Hello,
The french encoding "West European 8859-15" in Kmail,
is not memorized.
So, I have to put it again at each mail sending,
otherwise, Kmail refuses to send the mail.
How to break free of tne encoding ?
Thanks, Cheers,

Hello,
I installed Trinity from scratch on Debian 11 Stable. However, I am having trouble opening the default applications in Firefox and other GTK+ applications. The same goes for xdg-mime. Since Trinity apps are in /opt/trinity/share/applications/tde, xdg-mime and GIO can't see them and doesn't apply them even if I set them correctly. For example, even if I do "xdg-mime default /opt/trinity/share/applications/tde/kpdf.desktop application/pdf" or "xdg-mime default kpdf.desktop application/pdf", it doesn't work at all.
So, my question is: How can I sync the Trinity Control Center>TDE Components>File Associations list to both xdg-mime and gio? Or how can we export a mimeinfo file that uses trinity desktop files to .config f or a directory shared by gio and xdg-mime?
Dear developers and users,
after the release of TDE R14.0.13, we shared our tentative plan for
launching TDE R14.1.0 at the next release cycle. Since the development of
the last few tasks for R14.1.0 has been proceeding favorably, we now
consider the R14.0.x series to be closed and the next stable version to be
R14.1.0.
The deb packages repository known as PSB (Preliminary Stable Builds)
contains preliminary packages of the "upcoming stable version". Therefore,
this repository will be updated and will provide packages for R14.1.0~pre
in future. We intend to do this major update at the end of February. This
means that from that moment to the final release of R14.1.0, PSB and PTB
repositories will provide the same packages.
If you are using PSB repository, but do not want to participate in the
final phase of testing the upcoming R14.1.0, you should change your apt
sources and direct them to the final versions of R14.0.x series.
R14.1.0~pre is very stable, so the development team would appreciate if you
could help testing R14.1.0 before the final release.
Thank you for your participation in the development.

Hi All,
Is there a guideline to configure TDE to coexist fluidly with multiple
DEs installed? Beyond installing to /opt/. Tips and tricks. I searched
the wiki.
I would not mind discovering that after being away from TDE for some
years that I am not configuring or compiling correctly, but seems TDE is
somewhat designed with a presumption of only using TDE. Or possibly the
build scripts I found are configured incorrectly. One way or another I
need to know how environments should be configured inside and outside of
TDE.
* Correctly configure TDE and other DE or system environment variables.
* How to use TDE software when using a different DE.
* How to use KDE software when using TDE.
* How to not lose themes when using KDE software within TDE.
* Ensuring dbus/dcop are accessed correctly.
For example, when launching TDE the starttde script ensures $TDEDIR/bin
is in the environment $PATH just before /usr/bin. The opposite of that
is using TDE software in a different DE then $TDEDIR/bin needs to be in
$PATH just after /usr/bin (unless wanting to always type full paths).
Yet I am not aware of anything that automatically configures $PATH that way.
There are many TDE files with the same file names as in KDE, but that
does not mean all KDE software should be ignored. Yet launching KDE
software from within TDE (for me) results in a loss of toolbar icon
themes with the icons defaulting to flat icons. I can remedy that by
using a script wrapper to launch KDE software with the script modifying
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=TDE:KDE. The change in the environment variable only
affects that process but helps avoid the loss of the toolbar icon theme.
Oddly, running KDE software inside other DEs has no such theme issues,
which implies something is incorrectly configured in (my) TDE (possibly
environment variables). Setting XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=TDE:KDE in the
environment before TDE fully launches causes some weird problems and
xsession log spew.
While XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP and XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP support were added to
TDM, seems the support was not added for launching TDE from the console
with startx.
Other oddities include how the TDE GTK2 and GTK3 theme engines affect
other DEs. Weird things happens when those two TDE packages are installed.
Thanks for your time!

Hi All,
Is there a tutorial that explains how to customize Kate/KWrite toolbars?
There seems to be some kind of pattern or expected behavior between the
Main toolbar and Katepart toolbar, but I have been unable to learn the
pattern.
Another issue I have seen is a customized toolbar starts rearranging
itself right before my eyes simply by toggling between two open documents.
Any insight is much appreciated.
Thanks for your time!

Hi All,
Does the Control Center Device Manager function? Often any attempt to
use that module causes the desktop to almost screech to a halt. Requests
to view devices is really slow. There is a noticeable lag/latency when
using the mouse wheel to scroll the list.
Probably related but there is significant .xsession-errors log spew of
[FIXME] UNCLASSIFIED DEVICE messages.
Is the tdelibs/tdebase TDEHWLIB compile option the way to disable that
module?
Thanks for your time!

Hi All,
For Kate there is a tdeaddons sort plugin.
Does sorting selected text/rows/lines work for anybody else? If yes, is
there a specific mantra to be sung to get the plugin to sort selected text?
The original README explicitly states "Sorts selected rows or whole
file." The handbook says likewise with "Sort allows sorting a text file
or selection of text."
For me the plugin ignores any selections. When the dialog appears the
selection is emptied and sorts the entire document.
Sorting the characters of a word or phrase also fails. The dialog
automatically populates the column fields but then fails to sort the
selected text.
Please let me know if the plugin is broken or I am missing the big picture.
Thanks for your time!
D.A.
