TDE metapackages location updated
by Michele Calgaro 18 Feb '22

18 Feb '22

Quick note for developers/packagers. Meta packages in TDE code were located in two subfolders (defaultsettings and metapackages). They have now been consolidated into the metapackages folder. "defaultsettings" does not exist any longer. Cheers Michele

Trinity on a UHD Monitor (3840x2160 pixels)
by MLR 08 Oct '21

08 Oct '21

Hello, I bought a 27" UHD monitor, before that I had a 27" 1080 monitor. Everything is too small on the monitor. I can change the fonts, icons and other individual things, but not the whole desktop. I tried this in Plasma, I can easily scale the whole desktop (with Firefox and other none plasma stuff). This is wonderful, so now I have to use Plasma. :/ Can't I find the setting in Trinity or does the option not exist? Best regards

Fw: [tde-users] FreeBSD 13.0 Trinity Port: Update on pinentry-tqt error
by Hunter E. 20 Sep '21

20 Sep '21

Hey everyone, I am back once again. I've reinstalled FreeBSD 13.0-RELEASE and am working on fixing the FBSD port of TDE as I go along with building it, recording everything that happens so that we may be able to end the weird snags that occur in it once and for all. I ran into the usual problem with pinentry-tqt where it stops and says to set MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE=yes and try again. I ran it once again with MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE=yes and this time it stopped with different output and told me to run "aclocal", so I went into the pinentry-tqt work directory and did such. Now I went back to the big makefile where I was and started back. It made it much further and the output was different yet again, this time giving me more insight on what was going on. At this point I also found out you need to have the package 'texinfo' to avoid a "makeinfo not found" error. It looks like the problem is caused by libgpg-error in some way. I used the script tool to record the terminal output and attached it to this email. libgpg-error on my system is version 1.42, which is higher than the minimum version of 1.16 it says is needed so I am dumbfounded. ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users(a)trinitydesktop.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave(a)trinitydesktop.org Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@trinitydeskt…

Kate, highlighting and File Associations
by J Leslie Turriff 01 Sep '21

01 Sep '21

I'm looking at Kate's highlighting feature and trying to figure out how it works with files that have no extension. If I load a bash script into Kate it appears with lovely highlighting, and looking in Settings => Configure Kate => Highlighting I see that it has somehow associated it with | application/x-shellscript;text/x-shellscript I don't understand how it does this, since, looking at the mime entry for this in KControl Center => TDE Components => File Associations, to be matched, files must have one of the .sh, .csh, or .bash extensions. The bash script has the so-called "magic number" | #!/bin/bash as its first line, but nothing in the Kate and File Associations handbooks mentions these, and there is no place in the Configure Kate dialog to make an association with a magic number. The reason I'm looking at this is that I use a different, more programmer-friendly language, Rexx, for my scripting. Like bash scripts, I use a "magic number", in this case | #!/usr/bin/rexx to associate the text/rexx mime type with these scripts instead of an extension; but Kate does not associate this mime type; the Highlighting entry is set to None for this file when it is loaded, and no highlighting occurs. How does Kate know what highlighting to use with a bash script that has no extension, and why doesn't that work for a Rexx script with no extension? N.B. the highlighting works for Rexx scripts with the extensions defined in File Associations, but unlike bash scripts, not without them, so the mime types are functional; but I don't want to have to put extensions on all of my Rexx scripts just because of this Kate weirdness.
