Re: [trinity-users] Poll >> Troll Fest
by Jonesy 22 Feb '12

22 Feb '12

Re-send. Sent several hours ago 'from' the wrong email addy... On Sat, 11 Feb 2012, Timothy Pearson wrote: >A hypothetical poll for users here.... I was waiting to reply until a few other responses had come through. Sometimes I need to others' comments to take note of: "Hey! That is important to me, too." However, this "Poll" topic has turned into a Troll Fest -- just like so many other posting in "users" and "developers". Especially "developers"!! Why!!!! There would be FAR MORE PROGRESS in the continued development of Trinity if the developers did not treat trinity-devel(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net as a chat room where they felt compelled to response to each and every troll! Update your killfiles! Good grief, I have! But I'm forced to slog through all the follow-on replies to the nonsense . KDE4 should simply be OFF TOPIC -- along with prostate problems, hemorrhoid afflictions, and microsoft business practices, etc., usw. I would like to see the developers cranking out code and updates, and NOT cranking out Troll bombs. Anyway, that's _my_ opinion... Maybe, once I've calmed down, I'll respond On Topic to Tim's Poll inquiry. sigh...

issue since 3.5.13 upgrade
by Greg Madden 20 Feb '12

20 Feb '12

I have read, here, some users have various issues with 3.5.13. Here is mine. I use Librreoffice 3.3.4 for my business, all my docs & templates are full page tables, and multiple pages. One significant issue I have is the cut/copy> paste function in tables does not work in a timely fashion. I select data in multiple cells that I want to move or copy elswhere in the table/tables and it takes two tries to accomplish this. The first try pastes the data into a single cell, I have to repeat the select/cut/copy>paste process.. time consuming on a feature that can really save time. Now how is this a "TDE issue, not sure but two things stand out to me. 1. This is very pronounced since the upgrade from 3.5.12 > 3.5.13. 2. This sequence works fine in a Virtualbox instance of TDE 3.5.12 same LO ver. I could just re-install 3.5.12 on my workstation, but before I do I wanted to check other users issues, not 100% confidant the VB is an accurate test environment, i.e. everything seems to work fine with the virtual hardware VB uses, and it isn't a 100% identical software stack . -- Peace, Greg

Loading Trinity without internet (Debian)
by jc 19 Feb '12

19 Feb '12

Have to load Trinity on a new machine with Debian 6, with internet - no problems. Also have to update some machines running deb 5 KDE where there is no internet and have a identical machine with internet access. Update no problems (reload with wad of DVD's), not sure how to load Trinity My linux/unix knowledge is not good although have used linux as a prime desktop for 12 years but with not much debian experience. Only idea at present is to run apt-get -d install desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity >tdeload. followed by /var/cache/apt/archives to a DVD then - on another machine to HD at /var/cache/apt/archives EITHER put /var/cache/apt/archives in sources.list apt-get -install desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity OR cd /var/cache/apt/archives dpkg -i desktop-base-trinity dpkg -i kde-trinity OR redo tdeload. as script, in order, for dpkg There is probably a better/easier method which I haven't thought of and don't want to find problems which involve satphones ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ worse than that seattle mob) -- regards John Campbell

no sensors in ksysguard 3.5.13
by leee 19 Feb '12

19 Feb '12

One of the problems I experienced when I tried V3.5.13 was that ksysguard was no longer detecting the lm-sensors output. Has anyone else experienced the same problem, or conversely, are people that are using 3.5.13 finding that ksysguard _is_ detecting the hardware sensors on their systems? Regards, LeeE

kopete unable to load plugins/protocols

Hi Tim, I build kopete from git, protocols and plugins are built too, but kopete cannot see any of them. Any recent changes can be the reason for this? -- Serghei.

kdm-trinity (V3.5.12) timing out before X starts
by leee 17 Feb '12

17 Feb '12

Hi, I'm frequently experiencing a problem with kdm-trinity (V3.5.12) appearing to time out on system start-up. The following two lines are put into my syslog when this happens: kdm[1966]: X server startup timeout, terminating kdm[1966]: X server for display :0 can't be started, session disabled This is an intermittant problem and doesn't happen every time I start my system (I'd guess it occurs about 50% of the time). When it does I'm left with just the basic console. However, all I need to do to get X up and running is to log in on the console and restart kdm-trinity. The system is running Debian Squeeze on amd64 with an nVidia graphics card using the proprietary nVidia driver. Curiously, I don't recall this happening when I first installed TDE V3.5.12, which was quite some time ago now and it only seems to have started occurring relatively recently. Since I first installed Trinity V3.5.12 I have installed a number of Debian Squeeze updates but in addition to this I also tried upgrading to TDE V3.5.13 but then had to downgrade back to TDE V3.5.12 due to a couple of problems with V3.5.13. As I didn't remove TDE V3.5.13 and all of its config files when I downgraded back to TDE V3.5.12 I imagine that it's possible that kdm-trinity V3.5.13 introduced some different configuration settings. Alternatively, there have been a couple of kernel updates during this period (I compile my own kernels from the Debian linux-source package and then need to recompile the nVidia driver to fit the new kernel. The kernel updates have all been minor point updates so the kernel configs have been unchanged over the period concerned) and this may be a factor. Fwiw, the syslog messages from kdm-trinity appear about 15 seconds after the nVidia module load message. I've also had a look in the Xorg.log files and while there are no clear errors or warnings there are differences at the end of the logs between successful and unsuccessful start ups as shown below... Unsuccessful startup: (**) Option "xkb_rules" "evdev" (**) Option "xkb_model" "pc105" (**) Option "xkb_layout" "gb" (II) Power Button: Close (II) UnloadModule: "evdev" (II) Power Button: Close (II) UnloadModule: "evdev" (II) AT Translated Set 2 keyboard: Close (II) UnloadModule: "evdev" (II) ImExPS/2 Generic Explorer Mouse: Close (II) UnloadModule: "evdev" (II) ACPI Virtual Keyboard Device: Close (II) UnloadModule: "evdev" Successful startup: (**) Option "xkb_rules" "evdev" (**) Option "xkb_model" "pc105" (**) Option "xkb_layout" "gb" (II) Open ACPI successful (/var/run/acpid.socket) (II) Feb 15 11:52:58 NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "1920x1200+0+0" (II) Power Button: Device reopened after 1 attempts. (II) Power Button: Device reopened after 1 attempts. (II) AT Translated Set 2 keyboard: Device reopened after 1 attempts. (II) ImExPS/2 Generic Explorer Mouse: Device reopened after 1 attempts. (II) ACPI Virtual Keyboard Device: Device reopened after 1 attempts. The extract from the unsuccessful start up clearly shows that some of the devices are being closed but I can't see any reasons why and, as I say, there are no errors or warnings: apart from some different time-stamps earlier on in the logs they are otherwise identical (according to KDiff3). Any hints or tips would be appreciated. Regards, LeeE
