kpowersave 3.5.14
by Greg Madden 13 Jun '12

13 Jun '12

New laptop, installed Debian Wheezy AMD64, which is Debians current testing branch and TDE 3.5.14 from nightly builds., built for Wheezy. TDE is working well here. Since this is a laptop install I want to usekpowersave. I get the kpowersave icon in my systray but there is no inormation or options available when I right click on the icon. Package info suggests it supports ACPI, APM and PMU, screensaver, DPMS, among others. Any info on what apps TDE has available to manage or show laptop specific items would be appreciated. Thanks -- Peace, Greg

really weird trinity oddity
by Nix 10 Jun '12

10 Jun '12

Using Trinity trunk, finally (switched from KDE 3.5.10, yay!), there is one definite oddity. I use a program (xplanet) as my desktop background, and fvwm 2.6.5 with a 3x6 set of viewports. KDE 3.5.10 respected the program's refresh rate and reran it only when the requested interval passed, but Trinity is rerunning it whenever the viewport changes at all, Since I have viewport moves bound to keys and that can happen a dozen times a second, this is less than ideal. I thought maybe something in Trinity was looking at the _NET_DESKTOP_VIEWPORT, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Does anyone know why this might be happening? (I'm investigating further, of course.) -- NULL && (void)

Manual "save session" problem on latest Slavek packages
by Nick Leverton 09 Jun '12

09 Jun '12

Hi Slavek, I've a small problem which has arisen lately since tracking your updates, which wasn't in 3.5.12 or 3.5.13. When I do a manual "save session", then the "saving session" dialogue box never goes away. In fact a second "save session" dialogue pops up, and they repeatedly take turns in forcing themselve to the foreground. This option is only available if you choose "Restore manually saved session" in kcontrol Session Manager settings so I guess not too many people may be affected. It's a bit awkward though as it's one option I do rely on. How can I help debug it further ?

How to make proper backtraces?
by Dexter Filmore 01 Jun '12

01 Jun '12

Can't trace crashes. What would I need for, let's say, kopete. Is there a general approach? This backtrace appears to be of no use. This is probably because your packages are built in a way which prevents creation of proper backtraces, or the stack frame was seriously corrupted in the crash. passprompt ptrace: Kein passender Prozess gefunden. /home/dexter/11345: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden. /home/dexter/.trinity/tmp-shodan/drkonqiPJG8gE.tmp:1: Error in sourced command file: No stack. -- -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GCS d--(+)@ s-:+ a C++++ UL++ P+>++ L+++>++++ E-- W++ N o?

compile src on ubuntu 12.04?
by Dexter Filmore 30 May '12

30 May '12

So, I'd like to compile the 3.5.13 src on ubuntu 12.04. Before I start making deb-build scripts: anyone got some? I have the 3.5.13-monolithic tarball. (Or could one simply get the deb-src for the oneiric-packages and run them through buildpackage?)

desktop icons
by Lisi 29 May '12

29 May '12

Hello all! Next problem (a minor one this time): how do I put an icon of an application on the desktop when the application is not in the menu? The application is definitely there; it can be started from the launcher. But Kappfinder doesn't find it and it isn't in the menu. In case it is relevant, the required icon is a shortcut to Evince on TDE 3.5.13 on Debian Squeeze. Thanks. Lisi

A Sincere Thank You!
by Marvin L Jones 29 May '12

29 May '12

I want to thank whoever fixed konqueror in Trinity 3.5.13.1(.axis) to once again support flash! I just discovered this by accident. :-) Heretofore I've been bumping along with Ubuntu karmic and Trinity/kde 3.5.11 and had was in the habit of clicking up Firefox whenever I had a 'complicated' web page to visit. A BIG thank you to whoever got that solved, and a BIG thank you to all the developers on the Trinity team.

Problems with Icedove on Squeeze and Trinity 3.5.13 with Slávek's repository added
by Lisi 28 May '12

28 May '12

Hello, everybody :-) This is a fresh installation and I am still setting it up. All seemed to be well until I tried to launch Icedove. A small icon followed the mouse, no other result. I purged and reinstalled a couple of times, still no luck. So I purged, removed some gunk (files an directories) that was still there and installed the mozilla.debian version of Icedove. Still the same. This time I thought to keep some of the error messages, where there were any. They are below, in the order in which I did them: not very logical I'm afraid. Before I purge and install from source, possibly/probably with the same result, can anyone see what the problem is, and how I should resolve it?

Slávek's repository
by Lisi 28 May '12

28 May '12

I thought that I remembered that Slávek's patches for TDE 3.5.13 were now available in the form of a repository, but cannot find the reference in spite of spending some time searching. Could some kind soul point me the way - either to the imagined repository or to the patches, before I pull out the last of my hair? - which is falling out quite enough under its own steam. It doesn't need my help. :-( Thanks, Lisi
