Keys change function (Trinity+Squeeze)
by Mag. Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 06 Apr '11

06 Apr '11

Hi! I've (still) some problems with keys/keyboard mapping on trinity, and I do not know where to look at: xine-ui: <cursour-up> does not work. strange as it is, i can assign a function to <cursor-up> using xine's setup dialog. terminator: <ctrl>+<y> is translated to the sequence <cursor-up>,<end>. Both effects do not show when I run fvwm, so the "bad guy" is hidden in trinity. But where? Any suggestions? Nik

No drag and drop into Firefox 4
by sanne＠lavabit.com 05 Apr '11

05 Apr '11

Hi all, I tried the recently released Firefox 4.0 binary from Mozilla.org on my (old) Ubuntu 9.10-based system with Trinity 3.5.11 (64 Bit). I found that I can't drag and drop files from Konqueror into Firefox 4 to open them. I filed a bugreport [1] for Firefox at mozilla.org and did some tests with Trinity 10.10, Kubuntu 10.10, and also with non-Qt applications on all systems. I found that drag-drop open files in Firefox 4 works with every application that is not Qt3 based, and doesn't work with Qt3 based programs, regardless of desktop environment. It works for Firefox 3.x. I promised to ask here if anybody would be willing to test (in case it's just me) and report back at the bugreport, so I'd appreciate any input from here. The Firefox developer who answered me also would take input from the Trinity developers, if there's something he could do on the Firefox side. I read that there's a port of Trinity to Qt 4 on the way, so maybe this problem might sort of go away on it's own someday. :) Should I also file a bug report at the Trinity bugtracker? I'd appreciate any input on this issue. Thanks, Sanne [1] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645492

Hi, I'm running Trinity 3.5.12 on Linux Mint Debian. Whatever I do to change the kdm-settings, nothing is seen after the next PC start. -- 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: Manchmal glaube ich, das sicherste Zeichen für intelligentes Leben irgendwo im Universum ist, daß niemand versucht hat, mit uns Kontakt aufzunehmen.

Synaptic and Trinity
by Volker Wysk 02 Apr '11

02 Apr '11

Hello The synaptic package manager comes with two .desktop files: /usr/share/applications/synaptic.desktop /usr/share/applications/synaptic-kde.desktop The first one contains: NotShowIn=KDE; The second one: OnlyShowIn=KDE; Calling synaptic in the application menu calls the first one (the two program names/menu entries are identical). A broken root password entry box appears - the path of the executable which should be called with root privileges is empty. I'm wondering if the NotShowIn/OnlyShowIn directives are the cause of the problem. I've experimented in adding "Trinity;" to "KDE;", but without success. Does anyone know what this means? Thanks, Volker

White text wanted on dark blue desktop
by Lisi 25 Mar '11

25 Mar '11

I am setting up a Squeeze+Trinity box to demonstrate to someone with very poor sight. He is also a newbie, which means that everything must be fully labeled. I want to be able to show a light background to the desktop with dark/black text under the (enlarged) icons and a dark background with white text. This is something I have done in the past with KDE 3.x, but can't remember how. It is desirable, because many partially sighted people find white on black easier to read than black on white. This chap may not, hence my wanting to show him both. Help, please. Thanks, Lisi

Mounting of DVD, USB

Hi, the mounting is not done automatically after inserting/plugging in a Medium. My /etc/fstab looks like this: # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # Use 'vol_id --uuid' to print the universally unique identifier for a # device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices # that works even if disks are added and removed.

Partial Installation Recommendation
by Ed Hurst 20 Mar '11

20 Mar '11

Is there a recommended collection of packages for someone who would prefer to add Trinity, rather than have it fully replace, say GNOME? For example, I understand the necessity of replacing sudo, but I don't want to replace my boot splash. -- Ed Hurst -------- Open for Business - http://ofb.biz/ Kiln of the Soul - http://soulkiln.org/ blog - http://soulkiln.blogspot.com/
