File Manager
by c. marlow 20 Jan '22

20 Jan '22

Hi, What file manager am I supposed to be using? When clicking on the CHRIS folder on my desktop, PCMANFM open. Is that correct? If its not, what do I do to change it? I noticed that with PCMANFM, that it keeps recreating folders in my /home folder at log in that I had previously deleted. Folders like Documents, Templates, Music etc. If PCMANFM is the correct file manager, how do I stop PCMFM from recreating those folders? Thanks, Chris

KMAIL: Which one do I use for rules?
by c. marlow 20 Jan '22

20 Jan '22

Hi Ya'll! WOW switching to KMAIL was EASY! I exported the folders one at a time from Claws by going to FILE > EXPORT FOLDER TO MBOX ( I believe it was?) And then in KMAIL I went to FILE > IMPORT and select the 2nd option for MBOXES and viola! done. My question is now, which option do I use for Filters? POP filtering? under SETTINGS > CONFIGURE POP FILTERS or MESSAGE > CREATE FILTER Background Info: ALL POP accounts Thanks, Chris

TDE Installation
by c. marlow 20 Jan '22

20 Jan '22

aka the Dan Youngquist method: Dan states in a recent email, that the way he installs TDE would be to install a MINIMAL XFCE installation and then install TDE Somebody stated you could install XFCE or MATE and then install TDE. What I have burned to a USB stick does not offer a minimal XFCE installation It only offers a full blown installation.. I think it's because Debian offers the mini iso version first, instead of the CD / DVD version first. And also, what I have burnt to a USB stick automatically comes with drivers. I accidentally downloaded the wrong Debian for my great aunts pc and it couldn't find the wireless card and I was like uh oh, and I had to go redownload Debian's ISO that had the drivers baked in to the ISO. I found this page: https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/debian-installer/ Would downloading the CD or DVD version offer me the minimal xfce installation? Thanks, Chris

One last question....." Default Keyring"
by c. marlow 19 Jan '22

19 Jan '22

One last question... Upon logging in.. I get a pop up wanting me to enter the password for some mysterious keyring. IDK if its for Claws or what? It doesn't tell me the name of the app.. It just says keyring at the top. I tried entering the password I used for kwallet, which is the same password that I log in with.. And it says its wrong.. I have no clue what the password is... How do I reset it or stop it from popping up? Thanks, Chris

Hi, I am currently on Debian 11, and I am thinking about trying TDE for the very first time. I would like to know, what is the difference between TDE 14.x and TDE 3.5.x and which one is the best? And also, what would be the repo's be that I need to add via the command line to get TDE? And.. Do I need to install KDE first, and then TDE? So there's a total of 4 questions.. Sorry in advance! :P Thanks, Chris

Using Tqt theme/color scheme in Qt5 applications
by Hunter Ellett 18 Jan '22

18 Jan '22

Does anyone know if it's possible to use a TDE theme/color scheme in Qt5 applications? All my Qt5 applications look so jarring. I try to use Qt5 as little as possible (because I prefer Tqt and gtk2) but there's a few applications I use such as KeepassXC and Mupen64plus-qt that use Qt5.

The command: sudo aptitude remove kubuntu-default-settings-trinity kubuntu-desktop-trinity Don't remove all Trinity ṕackages. Google don't solved this problem for me. I am Linux Mint user.

Cheers > Michele Thanks Michele. I copy to the ML because I did not know of this package, so it may interrest others. I also notice that while ~/.trinity/Autostart seems to always exist, and I knew that putting a link to a script there runs it at startup, directory ~/.trinity/shutdown did not exist (or I never noticed it) and it plays the same role for shutdown. Once again Trinity solves problems simply and with elegance :) TDE rules :)) Thierry

Run a script at TDE logout?
by Thierry de Coulon 14 Jan '22

14 Jan '22

Hello all, It seems at work they have decided to use Microsoft Office 365. The basic apps won't be a bother as I don't have to use them. Teams might be a trouble, however there is a Linux client and it seems to work ok. Unfortunately, in typical M$ way, Teams for Linux autostarts (these people can't believe you would not want to use their apps all the time). It autostarts by creatiing a teams.desktop file file in ~/.config/autostart. There is a X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=true/false line enabling control of this, but it obviously works only on Gnome. I can remove the *.desktop file, but Teams will re-create it everytime it is run! Files run in .config/autostart are run before those in .trinity/autostart. Old style scripting in rc.local seems deprecated on Debian (Buster here). I've managed to create a systemd script to remove the desktop file at boot, which mostly satisfies my needs as I seldom just unlog, but I was wondering if there is a way to run a script when I log out (I have tried .bash_logout but it does not work)?

I'll try setting an additional action to fix it as mail comes in from there. But unfortunately, in Configure Filters... there is no way to refer to the content of one header field (From) when changing another (Reply-To), and no DCOP actions at all for filtering. :-( Leslie -- Operating System: Linux Distribution: openSUSE Leap 15.3 x86_64 Desktop Environment: Trinity Qt: 3.5.0 TDE: R14.0.10 tde-config: 1.0
