Any interest in collecting kthemes or color-schemes for Trinity?
by David C. Rankin 23 Feb '11

23 Feb '11

All, I have a number of kde3 themes (and emerald themes) that I have created over the years that I'm happy to give to trinity if there is any interest in collecting them. Here is an example of a BlackGold (dark) theme that I have updated in Trinity: [165k] http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/dt/trinity/ss/dcrTrinityBlackGold.jpg The theme uses keramic style and a dark color scheme: http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/dt/trinity/cfg/color-schemes/dcrTrinityBlackG… (you may have to adjust the gold depending on monitor brightness :) The .kth files are a bit large for me to host at home. If you want to try the ktheme, (with font & icon settings, etc...) it is available here: http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/dt/trinity/cfg/ktheme/dcrBlackGoldTrinity.kth Let me know if there is any interest in collecting these to either package or make available on the wiki. I probably have a dozen kthemes in varying darknesses and probably 100+ emerald themes. A sample of the emerald themes are available here: http://drankinatty.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=0 I guess I could just upload the .kth files to deviantart as well..., but if you want to broaden the selection in Trinity -- they are all GPL. -- David C.

simple packages
by Werner Joss 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

hello all, I'm a fresh trinity user and so far, I like it :) so I decided to resurrect some of my favourite kde 3.x programs which are not in the trinity repos and built very simple (checkinstall-) packages from them. they can be found here: http://www.hoernerfranzracing.de/zip/trinity/ maybe someone here can use them, too. werner

konqueror and SOCKS
by Mag. Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

Is there a way to get konqueror to work with a SOCKS proxy? I do this: $ ssh -D 12345 user@remote Iceweasel works fine when I set the proxy to SOCKS localhost:12345. now I'd like konqeror to use that SOCKS4/5 server on localhost. But whatever I check on the SOCKS tab, I get an error message. I tried tsocks, but konqueror still connects directly to the net. Does anybody have an idea? Nik

LibreOffice
by HHa 21 Feb '11

21 Feb '11

Hi, I installed LibreOffice, but the desktop integration package libreoffice3.3-debian-menus_3.3-6_all.deb does not work properly wit Trinity, e. g. Open a document does not work. Is that a Trinity problem? -- Viele Grüße, Hartmut Hungerhilfe: http://www.thehungersite.com Ohne Zensur suchen: http://suche.amnesty-bergedorf.de/ ökologisch suchen: http://www.ecosia.de Das heutige Motto: Die Dummheit von Regierungen sollte niemals unterschätzt werden.

nepomukserver
by Paul Cartwright 20 Feb '11

20 Feb '11

this morning I noticed my system was rather sluggish. One thing I found was nepomukserver, and about 5 other processes.. I am running Debian Squeeze & trinity kde3.5 . I turned off the desktop search function, is there anything else I can do? I had those processes running & I use gnome desktop! my other user runs trinity.. -- Paul Cartwright

Fwd: [arch-general] Trinity Binaries - Unofficial Repo - Thank You Kainting Chen!
by David C. Rankin 19 Feb '11

19 Feb '11

Here is a quick forward from the Arch list regarding Trinity binaries for Arch Linux (svn) ----------- All, Kaiting Chen has provided server space for Trinity binaries. Currently I have the i686 files uploaded and will upload x86_64 shortly (after my kids are done with toontown....) The url for the i686 repo is: http://www.kiwilight.com/~drankinatty/trinity/i686/ (Trinity packages are 2/19/2011 builds) The x86_64 repo will be the same url with x86_64. Trinity needs a clean environment currently (no kdemod3). If you have had a prior kdemod3 install, then delete: /var/tmp/kdecache-$USER/ksycoca /var/tmp/kdecache-$USER/ksycocastamp and move ~/.kde somewhere else. If you have kde4 installed, then expect akonadi/nepomuk and all the kde4 autostart files in /usr/share/autostart to run (Trinity devs are working on a way to ignore all the kde4 autostart files) To install trinity, just add the repo to /etc/pacman.conf: [trinity] Server = http://www.kiwilight.com/~drankinatty/trinity/i686/ Then just do 'pacman -Sy trinity-kdewebdev' and it will pull in the complete Trinity desktop (kdewebdev requires all trinity dependencies) I recommend installing it in either a clean Arch install, or just create a new Arch virtualbox VM and install it there. It is a darn good looking desktop. x86_64 packages by the morning :) See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Trinity for current details :) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. -- David C.

Current Build Times & Quick & Dirty build script outline - just FYI
by David C. Rankin 19 Feb '11

19 Feb '11

All, Here are recent build times for Trinity svn on a middle of the road P4 3.2G box. (nothing special - old Dell GX280 'small form factor'): 10:55 supersff:~/tblds> grep Feb bldlog.txt Feb 19 01:44:45 building: trinity-qt3 Feb 19 02:06:12 building: trinity-pyqt3 Feb 19 02:17:05 building: trinity-tqtinterface Feb 19 02:18:16 building: trinity-arts Feb 19 02:22:02 building: trinity-kdelibs Feb 19 03:01:01 building: trinity-kdebase Feb 19 03:36:42 building: trinity-kdevelop Feb 19 03:51:13 building: trinity-kdewebdev Feb 19 03:58:21 done! 2:14 beginning to end. For anyone packaging Trinity, the basic 'outline' of the build script layout I used was (link to full script below): #!/bin/bash <snip> # array of build directories -- in order declare -a blddirs blddirs=('trinity-qt3' 'trinity-pyqt3' 'trinity-tqtinterface' 'trinity-arts' 'trinity-kdelibs' 'trinity-kdebase' 'trinity-kdevelop' 'trinity-kdewebdev') # loop through the blddirs to build each in order for((i=0;i<${#blddirs[@]};i++)); do # copy your dev dir to the build dir (I don't build in my original dev dir) # if working with srpms, you could either install them at this point and # build with 'rpmbuild -bb specfile' or just 'rpmbuild --rebuild srpm'. cp -a ${pbbase}/${blddirs[$i]} $bldbase # if the dir got copied (or spec file exists) -- use it, if not skip it if [[ -d ${bldbase}/${blddirs[$i]} ]]; then # start time to screen & log echo -e "\n$(date '+%b %e %T') building: ${blddirs[$i]}\n" | tee -a ${bldlog} # change into the build dir cd ${bldbase}/${blddirs[$i]} # move any existing packages out to pkgdir (adjust for .rpm or .deb) echo -e "\n Testing for old packages and moving to ${binsavdir}\n" if ls *tar.xz &>/dev/null; then mv -fv *tar.xz ${binsavdir} | tee -a ${bldlog} fi # build the new package (adjust for rpbbuild -bb or whatever deb uses) (makepkg -s) # install and move new package to $pkgbin dir (adjust as needed) # if the build failed, issue warning an move on echo -e "\n Testing for new packages, installing, and moving to ${binpkgdir}\n" if ls *tar.xz &>/dev/null; then sudo pacman -U --noconfirm *tar.xz | tee -a ${bldlog} mv -fv *tar.xz ${binpkgdir} | tee -a ${bldlog} else echo "WARNING: Build of '${blddirs[$i]}' produced no package, skipping..." | tee -a ${bldlog} fi else echo "WARNING: Directory '${bldbase}/${blddirs[$i]}' not found - skipping" | tee -a ${bldlog} fi done exit 0 The link to the full script is: http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/dt/trinity/arch/scr/bldtrinsvn-all.sh It should be able to be easily adapted for rpm based builds or whatever debian and slackware use. The PKGBUILD scripts that Arch Linux uses with "makepkg" work the same way SPEC files work with "rpmbuild" on rpm based distros. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

new squeeze+trinity user
by Paul Cartwright 18 Feb '11

18 Feb '11

well, I totally screwed up my Debian Lenny install last night. I was fighting an application error, made some bad choices, and ended up with a non-useable system. X wouldn't work & I could not get apt/aptitude to do anything worthwhile. SO, 9pm last night I started the squeeze upgrade process. just about finished it last night ( gnome login worked, but KDE was not to be found). That was about 12:30am.. 6am I was back at it.. oops, ran out of "/" file space, that sucks.. removed a bunch of useless apps.. got some space back. Installed trinity.. fixed a few squeeze upgrade issue, and about noon today I had my system back. My wife's desktop looks just like it did yesterday, except it says "trinity" on the left hand side:) I doubt she will notice. Her kmail is up & running, as is my gnome login. # uname -a Linux paulandcilla.homelinux.org 2.6.32-5-686 #1 SMP Wed Jan 12 04:01:41 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux too many trinity apps to list, but here's one: ii kdepim-trinity 4:3.5.12-0debian7+r1178442 Personal Information Management apps from the official KDE3 release yeah!!!!! -- Paul Cartwright
