Good morning everybody =) I'd like to ask, does anyone *actually* use Konqueror to regularly browse the internet? I have used no better file manager than Konqueror but the web aspect seems to be hindered. I don't think its a fault of Konqueror itself but the way web design has changed. You can test this yourself by using wiby.me (an early web design search engine) and looking at sites indexed on it. These usually display fine in Konqueror, but when you go to a modern website like DuckDuckGo for example it doesn't display properly at all. It's a bummer since Konqueror is one of the hallmarks of TDE for me, although I don't know much about the web browser (KHTML) aspect I believe its integrated into some Trinity applications which is a really nice feature. I first really thought of this when I used KlamAV's virus browser function (which I assume is using KHTML integrated) but Trend Micro website (being that it's likely changed a lot) doesn't display properly. For the time being I'm using SeaMonkey since my usual browser, Pale Moon, does not take too kindly to *BSD.. And since it's a suite with a mail client as well I'm not using Kmail. I might switch to Firefox, but if there is any way to use Konqueror I would love to. There's so many options that far outweigh most dedicated web browsers such as its adblock filters and the ability to disable JavaScript which gets rid of any need for an add-on like uBlock Origin. I completely understand that working on it to display modern web pages is probably too difficult since Trinity's KHTML/Konqueror is older, this is just me dreaming here. Ideally I'd like to be able to make full use of a TDE web browser and the applications that work with it =) - Hunter aka hunter0one

Hibernate from TDE

by Gianluca Interlandi

Hi! Upon clikcing on "Log Out..." I am presented with various choices. I am confused which one correpsonds to hibernate (suspend to disk). Is it "Freeze Computer" or "Suspend Computer"? What I need is the memory to be written to the swap partition of the disk and power turned off. In other words, which one of these calls `systemctl hibernate`, or is a different mechanism used? I had to fiddle with /etc/systemd/sleep.conf and add: HibernateMode=shutdown to make hibernation work correctly. Suspend to RAM (often also called "Sleep") makes the laptop hang, so I need to avoid it (unless I find a fix). Thanks!

konq-plugins-trinity & python

by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp

Hi all! Could anybody tell me where /opt/trinity/share/apps/imagerotation/orient.py and /opt/trinity/share/apps/imagerotation/exif.py are used? The only reference I found was in /opt/trinity/bin/jpegorient which by itself is referenced in /opt/trinity/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/jpegorient.desktop ... but the defined "rotate" operation is not to be found anywhere in konqueror, neither in the context menu of a jpg file nor in the properties dialog. These 4 files are the only reason for python2.7 on my system and I do not see why it's actually needed any more.

information for TDE developers: Debian/Buster/10.10 with backports

by James D Freels

This is not a request for help, but rather, a note of information for the development team; especially for the Debian/Buster version of the code. I am running Debian/Buster/10.10 stable release. Just today, upon encouragement from my son (who is also a Linux advocate), I updated my kernel and nvidia driver to the latest version now offered through the debian/buster-backports portal. This brought the kernel from v4.19 to v5.10, and the nvidia driver from 418.197 to 460.73. This turned out to be a significant improvement for using TDE and my machine in general. In particular, the memory management is much cleaner, and the response of the entire system system much quicker. So far, everything seems to work much better. I might suggest you give this a try. I have been most impressed ! -- James D. Freels, Ph.D., P.E. freelsjd(a)gmail.com 865-457-6742 (landline) 865-919-0320 (cell)

Make it stop!

by dep

Greets, folks . . . This is a weird one. I unfortunately have the RAW-handling photo application LightZone as forst in my RAW file association, so when I accidentally clicked on a RAW file today it opened. (It didn't open that file, btw, because LightZone is flaky and opens what it had open the last time it was run, just one of several reasons I really don't like it.) I tried to close LightZone, but it wouldn't close. I did 'killall lightzone', but nope, still there. Mouse arrow turns to point-left-horizontally when I enter the window. Top reports no LightZone processes running. I have deleted LightZone and its configuration files. Still no joy. I have a *huge* file copy underway -- should take the next 10 hours or so. So I'd just as soon not reboot. Oddly, I can still moved the window around, maximize it, minimize it -- just not close it entirely. It seems to have just enough aslive that I can't get a "window not responding" error. Nothing inside the window, which is to say in the program itself, responds at all. Whatcha think? Any idea how to kill it? I've never encountered such a thing before. -- dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://www.athensnews.com/opinion/columns/the_view_from_mudsock_heights/

re. KMail index issues

by dep

What mailbox format is being used during the failures, maildir or mbox? Might make a difference. (I've always thought maildir is safer than mbox, because one maildir file gets corrupted and one message is lost, while one mbox bit gets flipped and all the messages are lost.) dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://www.athensnews.com/opinion/columns/the_view_from_mudsock_heights/

I didn't know that the Pager can do this.

by J Leslie Turriff

Something that a Plasma user is complaining about, I never knew was possible. It is very nice!
