Hello TDE users/developers:
I am using debian/buster now since it's release. I am also using the
"preliminary stable builds" of TDE using the following location:
deb
http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity-sb buster deps-r14 main-r14
I am having 3 problems. The first was with TDM, and that has been
resolved (
http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::16492). I think
that my 2nd and 3rd problem may be related, so I will describe them both
together in this request for help.
Panel icons moving:
My panel is on the bottom centered. However, it doesn't matter where it
is located, the icons will not stay put. It seems that the last panel I
move, continues to follow my mouse when it is active within the panel.
This drives me absolutely crazy. I have tried the "lock panels" switch,
and it makes no difference. How do I fix this ?
Screen saver/locker not starting automatically:
The (screen saver/lock screen) will not start automatically as it
should. No matter what choice I make for the saver (I prefer blank, but
have tried others), if I try to have it start automatically, it will not
start. I can manually start the lock screen, and it works as expected,
and unlocks with the password. I have also tried disabling the screen
saver provided by TDE, and then use another screen saver from the
distribution (such as xscreensaver), and it works fine. Of course, I
prefer to use the TDE screensaver. How can I fix this ?
I use the commercial nvidia driver installed with debian/buster
packages. I have also tried removing the debian-supplied nvidia
drivers, and used the nvidia drivers .run installer obtained directly
from nvidia. Makes no difference in these 2 issues.
I am not sure these 2 issues are related.
Thanks again.
