Trinity Desktop in RHEL5 i386
by Jesus Fernandez 06 Feb '12

06 Feb '12

Hello, I'm trying to install Trinity Desktop into my workstation but when I run the yum install it fails because a lot of packages are not found. I opened the http://mirror.ets.kth.se/trinity/trinity/rpm/el5/trinity-3.5.13/RPMS/i386/u… to see the contents of the repository but it's completely empty. I tried with other RHEL version and archs and have a lot of files on it. Is there any mirror available to install it? Best regards.

Move from Lenny and KDE to Squeeze and TDE
by Lisi 06 Feb '12

06 Feb '12

A few months ago, when my desktop turned its toes up and went skywards to its rest, I started to use my testbed machine as a temporary desktop. It was already running Squeeze and TDE, so I moved my mail folders and set out to use it. My emails simply wouldn't display, and when I installed Lenny on this machine I found that said emails had been mauled. Fortunately, I had three copies and the third was fine. So far, so good. Now Lenny has been pensioned off. (Well, will have been by tomorrow.) I clearly have to face Squeeze and TDE again. But I want my email; emails, folders and all. I can find no reference to anything other than what I did, and it is not impossible that the HDD was faulty and that that is the problem. I have searched on Google, but so far as I can tell, I did the right thing. So please, before I dive in again, and this time I would not be able to retreat to Lenny, can I have all and any advice on how to save my emails? Other than take a large number of copies, which I shall do anyway. Thanks, Lisi

LXDE, TDE and KMail - can I achieve what I would like to do?
by Lisi 02 Feb '12

02 Feb '12

My husband's desktop died pretty conclusively at the beginning of teh mirror outage. Not knowing about the outage, I set out to install Squeeze + TDE. Without success, of course. I tried David's offering, which I liked very much and had help from several people on this list, but had not succeeded in getting it all running properly when my husband came home. So I installed LXDE so that he could use Thunderbird to read his emails. He has fallen for the speed of LXDE, and, for once, doesn't mind having to work differently. He wants to keep LXDE. I therefore have a lot of TDE dependencies, but no actual TDE packages. 1) If I install the rest of TDE at this stage, so that it is there if needed, will it impact at all on LXDE's speed of booting up and shutting down? I had been intending, as part of the reinstall, to move him from Thunderbird to KMail. In KMail, it is easier to remove virus-laden emails, before he sends them on to Windows using friends, without damaging or altering other emails. And I know it a lot better, and can more readily answer questions. 2) Would using Kmail slow LXDE down at all? I have so far failed to work out a method for Peter to be able to get his emails in KMail without inputting a password. One used to be able to store the necessary login details and passwords in KMail, as one can in Thunderbird. For a while now, that has not been possible, and one has to go via KWallet, which demands a password. 3) Is there a workaround which would allow KMail to download the email from Gmail without any password being input?? One method would be to go back to using the ISP's POP3 server, instead of going via Gmail, as I have for a while now. But I would like to be able to continue sending his emails via Gmail. And log-in details would then need to be saved somewhere. Thanks, Lisi

Firefox crashing when saving
by Raevyn Vieria-Madison 30 Jan '12

30 Jan '12

Hello all This is an odd thing I thought maybe someone can help with? I installed Ku 11.10 and the TDE. I have no issues with TDE but one and honestly I am not even SURE its TDE fault. Firefox crashes EVERY time I try to save anything. Whether its a file download or a picture.. its goes boom. It did this sometimes when I ran TDE x.x..12 in ubuntu 10.10 but not that often. Now its all the time. Has anyone encountered this issue as well?
