Hello,
I have migrated from Debian Buster 32 bits to Debian Bullseye 64 bits.
Since this migration now I receive systematically this message DCOPSERVER
attached.
It's not the first time, the last time it was a bug of Trinity corrected
after.
What to do ? and thanks,
Cheers.

Hello everyone!
I have been working on some fixes improvements to KXkb, the TDE keyboard
tool and layout switcher¹. The fixes should make configuring keyboard
layouts easier and should solve some long-standing issues with keyboard
switching (e.g. Bugzilla issue #100).
One of the improvements that I have been thinking to include but for
which I need user feedback concerns TDEPersonalizer, the wizard that
gets shown on the first run of the desktop, or later, at users'
choice. The first step of this wizard lets you choose your country and
system language. The idea is that based on this information, the
keyboard layouts will be conveniently set up for you with a sane default,
with minimal need for user feedback (who can later adjust this default
manually).
But the problem is that I am not sure what that default should be. If
you consider, for example, cyrillic languages or greek, a good default,
in my opinion, would be a combination of the standard latin layout
(English) plus the layout of that language (so you have two layouts
that you can switch between). If you take languages based on the latin
alphabet though (e.g. Italian, French, Czech etc.) users might not
actually need a latin layout, so they will be fine with just the layout
of the keyboard layout of their own language.
A good solution IMO would be adding a checkbox just below country and
language selection that would let you enable/disable the English
layout. This checkbox would not be shown if the language you selected
is already English (US, UK or any variant).
So, I am asking for your feedback, especially those of you who use
non-English keyboard layouts: What do you think of this idea? Do you
think the checkbox approach is good enough? What should be the default
state of the checkbox, enable or disable English layout?
Please take in mind beginner Trinity users too.
Your feedback will be greatly appreciated!

Hello,
Having problems with dependency on rocky-backgrounds and rocky-logos ....
I followed the steps in here ... https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/RedHat_Trinity_Repository_Installation_Inst…
enabled EPEL, RPMFUSION, installed http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/rpm/el9/trinity-r14/RPMS/noarc…
However, if I try to install trinity, I get the message:
[super@legendre ~]$ sudo yum install trinity-desktop-all
[sudo] password for super:
Last metadata expiration check: 0:29:58 ago on Tue 27 Dec 2022 06:14:48 PM -03.
Error:
Problem: package trinity-desktop-all-14.0.13-1.el9.noarch requires trinity-desktop = 14.0.13, but none of the providers can be installed
- package trinity-desktop-14.0.13-1.el9.noarch requires trinity-tdebase >= 14.0.13, but none of the providers can be installed
- conflicting requests
- nothing provides rocky-backgrounds needed by trinity-tdebase-14.0.13-1.el9.x86_64
- nothing provides rocky-logos needed by trinity-tdebase-14.0.13-1.el9.x86_64
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)
Tried to add --skip-broken and --nobest didn't help. Somehow the trinity for rhel9 depends on the rocky packages - that does not make any sense, does it?
What should I do?
Thanks for helping,
Ricardo
Hi all!
The 2004 book "C++ GUI Programming with Qt 3 (ISBN 0-13-124072-2)" that's mentioned in http://trinitydesktop.org/docs/qt3/how-to-learn-ntqt.html is available for free now at https://www.researchgate.net/publication/245591968_C_GUI_Programming_with_Q…
Things to note:
- Names changed from "Qt..." to "TQt..."
- compiling by hand needs something like "g++ a.cpp $(pkgconf tqt --cflags --libs) -lstdc++"
- "qmake -project ..." will not include the TDE folders, so you'll have to add them manually to the *.pro file
- When in doubt: http://trinitydesktop.org/docs/qt3/

Hi everyone:
First, happy new year.
I have a notebook with opensuse tumbleweed and trinity desktop. I configure it
to enter on sleep when the lid is closed.
I found that several times i open lind and as there is no led or signal that
the system is on sleep i press the power button.
Actually the system trap the power request, show the unlock screen. But when i
write the password the system shutdown.
This trigger 2 question/suggest/ideas:
1) The system must allow shutdown even on unlock screen ( or be configurable),
is no sense request the password to shutdown the computer because never is
required in normal use. ( the login is automatic, and i can shutdown from TDE
without password). About software active we can look windows 10 that:
Send the shutdown signal and open a "waiting for XXX to close"
2) Normally if the screen is off when the uthe user press power, mean that the
user want turn on the computer (only that dont know that already is on). So
the user don't want shutdown that is the actual behavior.
So i suggest that if the screen is off when the user push the button appear
the shutdown options (off, hibernate, suspend )
Best regards
Christian

Hi all!
I just played around with tdevelop to build a simple test-application. However, I did not succeed. Is there anybody on the list who has actually used tdevelop to build a TQT3 or QT3 application that actually compiled and worked?

Maybe an odd question?
Can you run two, or more, logins for the same user at the same time? (Say the
normal one on Crtl-Alt-F7 and an extra one on Crtl-Alt-F5?)
I have an app that behaves badly that I’d like to isolate to its own instance
of TDE. (There’s no fix for it and when it it goes bad it requires a desktop
restart.)
Doable? Or anyway to do something equivalent?
Thanks all,
Michael
Hello all,
As I allready mentioned, I am using MX-Linux at school. I have now installed
it on my laptop because it's the only Debian-based distribution I've found
where Gnome-Display-Networks is working - which let's me connect my machine
with a Microsoft Wireless dongle.
To stop any discussion: no, I won't use Ubuntu or Mint, so I haven't tested
those.
I have installed Trinity on MX and it works well, with one glitch:
- If I use TDM (dpkg-reconfigure tdm-trinity) there seem to be some problem at
shutdown, wich leads to - sometime, not always - a failure of X to start at
boot (I did not write down the message but it's something about a Plymouth
failure). If I log in (cli) and then start X it works.
- If I use lightdm there is no problem (except the less friendly greeter).
From all this, I have concluded that the problem is linked to the use of
Trinity's login screen. While I can live with lightdm, does anyone understand
what the problem with plymouth is, and/or if it's possible to get TDM's
greeter without plymouth? I seem to remember a time where plymouth had to be
installed only for some versions of the greeter - maybe I'm wrong.

Hi everyone.
I have a last fail on my trinity install. Every book appear:
The application soundserver (artsd) chashed and caused signal 6 ( SIGABRT)
The next is the backtrace. Make refference to some failed symbol (maybe
shared library, wich library?)
The installed system is a opensuse tumbleweed and make this error from start.
If i configure "not sound server" the error dissapear, but kmix cant move the
volume.
Thanks to all, Best Regards
Christian
