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

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

Indices rebuilt :/
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 28 Jun '21

28 Jun '21

Ok, at last I got hit by the same problem: Each time I start kamail, one index file wants to be rebuilt. Please not, not all index files, just one. Deleting all *.index and *.index.ids does not change anything. What I did: 2 days ago: dist-upgrade --> everything works as expected, not strange messages. Just some hours ago: dist-upgrade pulled in some TDE updates --> index files of one folder gets rebuilt when I start kmail.

Featured Theme on Trinity News page
by Edward 27 Jun '21

27 Jun '21

https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/images/4/44/TDE-screen1.png Hi. Does anyone know what theme is used in this graphic on Trinity's News page? It doesn't look like it came with the default TDE Debian packages that were installed - this assumes I have installed all packages. Or perhaps there's a package I haven't installed, which includes this? Thanks in advance. Ed -- Linux. A Continual Learning Experience. TDE: 14.0.10 - Debian: 10.10 (amd64)

TDE Control Module crashes upon theme change
by Edward 27 Jun '21

27 Jun '21

/Sent this to the list earlier today, but it apparently didn't make it to the list./ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I succeeded in installing the baghira theme on both of my desktops. However on both, the TDE Control Module (tdecmshell) crashed afterwards with a segfault. Upon attempting to report the crash, it reported that the debugger 'gdb' was not found. Attached are screenshots. -- Linux. A Continual Learning Experience. Trinity Desktop Environment: 14.0.10 - Debian: 10.10 (amd64)

Re: additional kmail issue
by dep 26 Jun '21

26 Jun '21

I've already made inquiry to the ProtonMail Bridge people. The bridge is a very big wad of stuff that encrypts and otherwise handles mail before sending it to ProtonMail. It on the Kmail end, it wants KMail to send the mail to 127.0.0.1, using a long, hashed password that the bridge generates. I've used it since early beta. I haven't heard back from ProtonMail, which isn't a surprise -- it's late Saturday in Switzerland. The bridge supports a very limited number of clients -- ProtonMail is primarily a webmail service -- and KMail is not among them, though setting up KMail to use it was fairly trivial, even in early beta. On the rare occasion it hasn't worked, it has thrown a message saying that it couldn't log in to 127.0.0.1 and the problem is probably the password, but restarting the bridge and KMail virtually always has fixed this. Now, though, there are no errors thrown -- it says there's no new mail even though there clearly is new mail, as witness their webmail and the ElectronMail client that accesses the webmail hooks. I'd check a different account with KMail if I had any, but I don't. OTOH, using ProtonMail's apps on, for instance, the iPad works normally. dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://www.athensnews.com/opinion/columns/the_view_from_mudsock_heights/ ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Saturday, June 26th, 2021 at 4:39 PM, Mavridis Philippe <mavridisf(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Could it be then that the problem is on ProtonMail's end?

additional kmail issue
by dep 26 Jun '21

26 Jun '21

There having been no new mail in KMail (which comes from ProtonMail via ProtonMail Bridge) for about 12 hours, even though it has been arriving at ProtonMail and is viewable elsewhere, I restarted KMail from a terminal, and got: ~$ kmail [TDE NM Backend ERROR] [../tdecore/tdehw/networkbackends/network-manager/network-manager.cpp:1706] Attempting to access the network-manager VPN service returned: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.VPN.Plugin was not provided by any .service files dep@dep-desktop:~$ WeaverThreadLogger: thread (ID: 1) suspended. WeaverThreadLogger: thread (ID: 4) suspended. WeaverThreadLogger: thread (ID: 2) suspended. WeaverThreadLogger: thread (ID: 3) suspended. This with TDE R14.0.11 [DEVELOPMENT] under Linux 5.4.0-77-generic on Ubuntu 20.04. Is this abnormal behavior? If so, any idea how to fix? Thanks. -- dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://www.athensnews.com/opinion/columns/the_view_from_mudsock_heights/

Forcing kmail to rebuild indices?
by dep 26 Jun '21

26 Jun '21

Strange behavior from KMail today. Among other things, the subjects listed in the inbox are not the same as the subjects of the actual messages -- they become correct when clicked on, but turn back to what they were when another message is clicked. I think that rebuilding the indices is on order, but don't know a way to force it. Is there a nondestructive way to do so? Thanks. -- dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://www.athensnews.com/opinion/columns/the_view_from_mudsock_heights/

Desktop icons
by Gianluca Interlandi 25 Jun '21

25 Jun '21

Hi! In KDE3 installations, there is a Desktop folder in the home directory, which contains the app icons displayed on the desktop, e.g., /home/gianluca> ls Desktop/ kinfocenter.desktop Office.desktop Support.desktop trash.desktop MozillaFirefox.desktop Printer.desktop SuSE.desktop However, in TDE the folder Desktop/ is empty. Is there another place where the app icons are stored? I would like to create a Desktop shortcut for firefox and I'm not sure whether I can just copy Desktop/MozillaFirefox.desktop from an older KDE3 installation. Thanks!
