Mint Debian 201109
by Dan Youngquist 24 Sep '11

24 Sep '11

Hi all, I just downloaded and installed the new Mint Debian 201109. It says it's 100% compatible with repositories designed for Squeeze, but Trinity won't install due to over a dozen unresolved dependencies. Is there any obvious reason this is so, and anything simple I can do to fix it? Alternatively, is there another Debian-based, rolling-release distro on which Trinity will install without problems? (I could just use Debian, but I'd prefer to use a distro on which things like wireless drivers work out of the box.) Thanks. -- PGP key: http://homestead-products.com/pubkey.htm

TDE 3.5.13 nightly
by Greg Madden 23 Sep '11

23 Sep '11

It was mentioned on the Mint Debian 201109 thread the nightly builds could be installed, sources.list entires available. Since I use Virtualbox I gave it a try withDebian Sueeze/ Smooth install, to early to tell much but one item that stands out, I can know drag & drop/move/remove(uncheck)the column headers in kmail. Know thats the kind of change I can live with. Interface looks identical, I use KDE classic. missing package: desktop-base-trinity. -- Peace, Greg

[trinity-users] TDE package(s) installing kdesudo as unwanted "recommends" in Squeeze
by David Hare 21 Sep '11

21 Sep '11

I noticed when reinstalling kaffeine-trinity that also installed as "recommends" were : kdesudo-trinity, kpackage-trinity I do not use or want either of those on my Debian system and can't see the reason for this. Although it is not a problem for me to purge them, this could be seen by some Debian users as another example of enforced use of Ubuntu-style sudo on Squeeze/TDE It is not easy to work out whether installing (especially multiple packages) with "no-recommends" is a good thing or not; that sometimes means reduced functionality. My concern is, there are probably other TDE packages which behave similarly. I don't know if this counts as a bug or is for some reason intentional. Any comments?

Just FYI: does anybody else get "/bugzilla3/" on top of each bug report page in the TDE bugzilla?
by Alexey Loukianov 20 Sep '11

20 Sep '11

Hello 2 All, SUBJ pretty much says it all. Using Firefox 6.0.2 (binary from mozilla.com) on 32bit Fedora 14 I've got line "/bugzilla3/" displayed at the top of any TDE bug report. http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=399 http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=400 e.t.c. Also checked it with Konquerror and it also shows "/bugzilla3/" at the top of pages. Seems to me like minor TDE bugzilla configuration error. -- Best regards, Alexey Loukianov mailto:mooroon2@mail.ru System Engineer, Mob.:+7(926)218-1320 *nix Specialist

Desktop Icon Positions
by john 20 Sep '11

20 Sep '11

My Desktop icons seem to be deciding for themselves where they should appear. I have tried several times to keep the icons arranged the way I like - "By Type - Directories First". The arrangement lasts through maybe three logins, then I find the icons rearranged again. If it matters, I'm using Trinity 3.5.12 with Debian Squeeze. I have checked the file ~/.trinity/share/apps/kdesktop/IconPositions and nothing obvious is amiss, though I can't be certain I'd recognize a problem there. I'd be grateful for a clue. Thanks John

Firefox and/or Desktop folder
by Patrick Serru 17 Sep '11

17 Sep '11

Hello all, I did the same (double) error twice, with obviously the same result twice. The first time, I continue to use the system, which meant that I did not know where was the error. The objective was to install Firefox 5.0. 1 - I copied a directory /usr/local/firefox/ from a system used before 2 - I tried to edit a firefox icon coming also from the other system, 3 - I completely uninstalled firefox using Synaptic (that did not removed the ~/.mozilla/). At the end of stage 2, TDE changed their behavior: the icon (firefox) disappeared from the office, and TDE "showed" the launch of an application (clicking on a desktop icon) by in the magnifying. I had initially inhibited this option (called "bouncing cursor", I think). I do not know which of point two or three is causing the problem, but at the following reboot, TDE showed blue cursors and finally "Can not open theme file /opt/kde/share/apps/kdm/themes/kubuntu-kde3/ ". In the current working installation, there is no /opt/kde/ but /opt/kde3/. Once the session opened, there was no menu Start. (I am not ready to live without it!) I am currently with a screen size of 1152x864 that comes out of a magician's hat (this is the very first time it appens with THIS format!), while after the last system restore (and associated wasted time), throw in usual 1280x1024. I have already indicated the unsolved problem of ATI drivers installation in another post.

TDE 3.12 and KMail
by Patrick Serru 15 Sep '11

15 Sep '11

Hello everyone, My old KMail3.10 directory contains a total of 1GB,for212internal directories. For each directory, I had to select all the e-mail content, then applied for registration under the "mbox" format, importable by other email-clients. This was because KDE4 did not offer a smooth transition from KMail3.5 (or I missed it!). Now I discover TDE and Thunderbird, I would like to return using KMail. My question is: "My KMail3.5 directory (and the 300ko kmailrc, including many filters) will be treated without difficulty by KMail3.12 or is there a risk of existence of time bombs in the bowels of KMail after this transition ? Did some Trinity-User do that ? > Le 14/09/2011 20:54, Greg Madden a écrit : >> Good topic for another thread. > Thank you Greg. I see two metaphors now...
