[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?

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...

ATI, sound and console
by Patrick Serru 15 Sep '11

15 Sep '11

(sending again this mail, sorry if it was already sent but I did not receive any answer... I am also new in Thunderbird!) ------------------------------- Hello everyone, I salute the tremendous work of the development team and I thank them. I hope the spirit of this team will always remain, just as one who leads the project "Damned Small Linux", for exemple. I hope to permanently abandon my Suse 10.3 + KDE 3.5.10, and is keen to stay with KDE 3.5 TDE Trinity. The issues regarding this that I have with the "Trinity-Enterprise" distribution (kubuntu 10.10) are: SOUND: I have no sound. KMix opens with the mixer "PulseAudio" by default and I have to reconfigure each time in VIA_8237. Also, I use the entry "Line" physical and when the configuration is correct, this input is sent to the audio output of the computer and the level of output (input signal from the "Line", so) is well controlled. But there is no sound from TDE that is audible (noatun or amarok, for example) VIDEO: I can not install the drivers for my ATI graphics card. The packets manager says that the ATI drivers are installed. The various tutorials found are all refering to the Gnome menus... These difficulties are well borring, but I can wait for the next distribution, hopping that Gnome will coexist with TDE anabling to choise the window manager (gnome or tde) at the login time. Also: The "standard" console (i.e. reached with "Ctrl+Alt+F1") is reachable only once. Is it normal, being a SELinux feature, for exemple ? The key "page-up" does not work the way I know in Kconsole or in standard console: Typing "/etc/init.d/" then page-up displays the last command entered starting with "/etc/init.d/"... an other SELinux feature ? Thank you, Patrick
