Print A4 documents on Letter paper from KPDF

by Edward

I deleted the e-mails on this subject, so I could not reply directly to one. I had a similiar issue where I was trying to print a PDF that was sized for US Legal (8½ by 14 inches) on US Letter (8½ by 11 inches). KPDF would not do this. I am running Debian 10 and installed qpdfview,which shows up on the TDE menu under Office as 'tabbed document viewer (qpdfview)'. When printing with qpdfview, on the Print dialog, there is an icon labeled 'Options'. Selecting this will display three tabs, one of them is 'Extended Options'. This tab contains a checkbox 'Fit to page' and it successfully shrunk it down to Letter size on the resulting printout. I just discovered that Evince is also installed, on the same TDE Office menu as 'Document Viewer'. Evince uses the system print dialog when printing, which includes options to shrink or fit to page. -- Linux. A Continual Learning Experience.

Note on "libreoffice menubar gone" + TDE + devuan/debian

by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp

Hi all! Just in case anybody runs into the "libreoffice has no menubar"-problem: installing dbus-x11 will bring the menubar back. An other thing that you might run ointo: libreoffice by default uses x11 fallback interface, which is exceptionally ugly. You have to install "libreoffice-gtk3" and set "SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk3" in .profile to get a reasonably usabe GUI. (libreoffice-qt5 breaks any kind of printing from libreoffice) Nik -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA, CIA ...

[opensuse 15.2] missing window decorations

by Felix Miata

Which package(s) provide this? I have one installation where they are missing. Clearing caches didn't help. Which file(s) in ~/.trinity/share/config/ can be deleted to affect only window decorations and whatever else might be causing this? -- Evolution as taught in public schools, like religion, is based on faith, not on science.

FAS 32 and #

by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp

Hi all! I just ran into this problem: konqueror can open any file with a '#' in it - if the file is not on a dos partition. e.g.: "12345#hallo.txt" on a ext4 opens fine. The same file on a FAT32 does not open - konqeror tries to open a file "12345". "ls" on said FAT32 filesystem shows the correct name "12345#hallo.txt", so I suspect a konqueror problem. Could somebody please test before I file a bug report? Nik -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA, CIA ...

Still having issues with Firefox and Thunderbird on TDE

by Edward

Unfortunately, I am still having issues with Thunderbird and Firefox, where Thunderbird creates Blogs & News Feeds, instead of sending a link for Firefox to open. But if Thunderbird mysteriously behaves as expected and it sends the link to Firefox to open, Firefox will then display it's not the default web browser, yet running a command to check the default browser, shows it's Firefox. I have attached a screengrab of the two windows. Is there any harm in uninstalling Konqueror from TDE and using something else as a file manager? The only other solution I see, would be to uninstall both Firefox and Thunderbird and use Vivaldi and it's mail client (after it's turned on) and use that from now on. OS: Debian 10 stable Thanks in advance. -- Linux. A Continual Learning Experience.

Just curious (Ghost process)

by Thierry de Coulon

Hello all, I use (a little) a program named "TV-Browser" that regularely has trouble closing. Now I see this: TV-Browser completely crashed on quit. So I fired KSysGuard and killed it. Now, there is no more TV-Browser in KSysGuard, but the program window is still there (I can move it to another Desktop and get it out of the way) . Anyone understand what's happening? Thierry

ICEauthority fixed

by James Leone

I have figured out what to do to resolve the ICEauthority issue. First make a directory called .xdgr in the home directory and give the owner read, write and execute permissions. None to any other user. in console cd ~ mkdir .xdgr chmod 0700 .xdgr Second, tell the system that you want the XDG_RUNTIME_DIRECTORY to be in that folder. Add the following to /home/username/.profile XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=~/.xdgr My system is now back to normal and my applications are running great. It took a long time to get there though. James Leone
