After major surgery I am now well enough to answer emails to me about
some of the difficulties I encountered with TDE 14.0.11. My original
installation of TDE on 2021-10-05 had to use Slávik’s ‘unofficial’
preliminary stable build, version R14.0.11, the only TDE one available
then for Debian Bullseye. By the way this was a full TDE session; it
was not run from inside another desktop environment.
Very soon after the installation I frequently had to reboot because of
problems with dcopserver. After considerable experimentation I found
that the best way to solve them was right after each boot to open my
user in tty1. I then ran command ‘dcopserver –serverid’; no response
was received. Next I ran ‘dcopserver’ first alone and then again as
‘dcopserver –serverid’. This time I received confirmation that
dcopserver had an ID Bullseye and quoted it. It was at this point that
on 2021-11-13 I raised this issue on the Trinity user list.
Sometime after, but I am not sure exactly when, I discovered that some
of the other minor irritants in TDE which I discovered since I started
using it had disappeared. It consequently occurred to me to check to
see whether the dcopserver irritant disappeared as well. It had. After
checking various upgrades since 2021-10-05 I confirmed on 2021-11-12
that the TDE version for the preliminary stable build changed from
R14.0.11 to R14.0.12 [DEVELOPMENT].
From that point on I no longer had to to do at every
boot the procedure
described in the second paragraph. I don’t know what exactly
was
changed and how, but whatever it was it worked. I also noticed that the
time stamp for two DCOPserver entries in my home directory are the date
and time of the latest boot. It does seem however that on closing the
computer these entries are deleted and then reopened when the computer
is next opened.
Regards and Merry Christmas, Ken Heard
