With this we should be a little closer to replacing that cooler. Come on everybody, every little helps. It may be a small or big effort for each of us, depending on the individual situation, but all together we can do that. I am sure Tim would not have asked if there was another way to do it. Please donate and help keeping TDE alive :-) Cheers Michele

TDE v14.0.0 official bug list
by Michele Calgaro 13 Mar '14

13 Mar '14

Dear all, the TDE development team has finally prepared a list of bugs that will be addressed for the release of v14.0.0. The list is available on the etherpad (http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/39) and on bugszilla as meta bug 2014 (http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2014). If there is a specific bug that you think should be fixed in v14.0.0 and that we have not included, feel free to propose it in the mailing list for consideration. Please keep in mind that such bugs should be blockers/critical or cause major loss of functionality to users. We are looking at freezing the list in one week time (after 2014/03/19 US time). The current list of bugs is quite long as you can see, so v14.0.0 will probably not be release before 2-3 additional months of development, based on the resources currently available. Nevertheless we have a soft-freeze in place and so development should be focused mainly on the official bug list. Cheers Michele

~/sources.d/trinity.list
by Greg Madden 12 Mar '14

12 Mar '14

Debian I have always manually added repos to my sources.list file, in fact the directions on the Trinity web site mention this. Installing the trinity-keyring package, an entry is added to the /etc/apt/sources.d/ dir. This is a duplication and in fact on my amd64/Wheezy system apt complains about it, from the cli. Could be minor issue :-) since the packages file is still updated..but, error messages. Random thoughts, have the keyring package available for download, on the install web page, as a way to modify the sources.list file, find a DD to sponsor the trinity-keyring package in non-free in Debian. Thank You -- Peace, Greg

Removing MSN from Kopete - test needed
by Michele Calgaro 12 Mar '14

12 Mar '14

Dear all, in bug 1547 (http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=1547) I proposed a patch for removing MSN (now obsolete) from Kopete. I don't use Kopete, so I have no idea if the patch broke some other protocols. Could some of you who uses Kopete regularly, check that everything else is still ok? Cheers Michele

Translation framework requests
by Timothy Pearson 11 Mar '14

11 Mar '14

All, I have received several requests to implement some type of translation framework in order to make submitting translations to TDE easier (this includes making sure they actually end up in GIT). Apparently the current process is cumbersome and error prone; I can attest to this as we have at least one large translations patch languishing in the bugtracker that cannot be cleanly applied to the current GIT sources. My question is: what would all you translators like to see out of the translation framework? Are there any existing open-source services that you prefer to use and/or might be usable with TDE? I would also like to know what your preferred workflow is so that I can try to design something to match. Thanks! Tim

Indefinite QuickBuild outage
by Timothy Pearson 11 Mar '14

11 Mar '14

All, The QuickBuild build farm was taken offline this morning and will remain offline indefinitely. While I realize this pushes R14 release further out, the cold hard reality is that donations have fallen so much, along with the bad economy impacting my own finances, that I cannot afford to keep the build farm running at this time. Finances were already strained with the Web server upgrade, as the new software required newer hardware to keep performance at a reasonable level. My intention was to keep the build farm running until R14 was released, then see if any donations came in to cover some of the costs. However, this morning the main chiller was destroyed due to sudden power brownouts/surges, forcing the build farm offline. As I do not have the funds to replace this chiller, and with the onset of spring/warmer temperatures here, I cannot restart the build farm at this time. I will do my best to bring one builder online for each architecture in the next few days, but this severe drop in build power will obviously cause full archive rebuilds to take several months at minimum. As a result we need to start looking at dropping support for older Ubuntu versions, though I did not want to take this step as I know some larger deployments depend on this support. All other TDE services are not affected at this time. Sorry for the bad news! Timothy Pearson Trinity Desktop Project

tdepowersave - found new race condition (that explains the constant 3-5%)
by David C. Rankin 11 Mar '14

11 Mar '14

Tim, All, In working though testing, I used 'tdedebugdialog --fullmode' and set the '0 generic' output to file kdebug.dbg (the default name) for all 4 (information, warning, error, etc). That file was over 46 Megabytes and 431,000 lines repeating tdepowersave activity in a 12 hour period. tdepowersave is constantly churning away in the following loop (2 examples): tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/ tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXPWRBN:00/input/input4/event3//dev/input/event3 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSLPBN:00/input/input5/event4//dev/input/event4 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:03.0/net/enp0s3/enp0s3 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:04.0/input/input3/event2//dev/input/event2 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:06.0/usb2/2-1/2-1:1.0/input/input2/event1//dev/input/event1 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input0/event0//dev/input/event0 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input7/event6//dev/input/event6 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/platform/pcspkr/input/input6/event5//dev/input/event5 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/ tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXPWRBN:00/input/input4/event3//dev/input/event3 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSLPBN:00/input/input5/event4//dev/input/event4 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:03.0/net/enp0s3/enp0s3 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:04.0/input/input3/event2//dev/input/event2 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:06.0/usb2/2-1/2-1:1.0/input/input2/event1//dev/input/event1 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input0/event0//dev/input/event0 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input7/event6//dev/input/event6 tdepowersave: unmonitored device changed: /sys/devices/platform/pcspkr/input/input6/event5//dev/input/event5 This is with the tde_dbus_hardwarecontrol happily set and not doing its repeating loop. Why is tdepowersave changing unmonitored devices multiple times per second? Is this just it spitting out what activity it read for various hardware devices (net, mouse, speaker)?? My mouse is usb, so I can see input there (not while I'm sleeping though), but why would any of the serial devices every change - they are not used. This looks like a true race condition, because none of my devices are changing, and they are certainly not changing multiple times every second while I'm asleep :) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

During the week end, I told to Michele that I had planned to work(*) on the French translation for ktorrent this week. I was going to fill in bugzilla with a patch to apply on the French po file, but when I read your email, I'm not sure that's the right way to handle that. I've never done that kind of translating before, consequently, I can't tell you what tool I'd like to work with. Regards. gregory (*) I don't intend to translate the software entirely but at least I'd like to remove some English vocab displayed on the main frame as well as in the menu (in the most common options/parameters).

KBabel PO compendium broken links
by Michele Calgaro 09 Mar '14

09 Mar '14

Dear all, bug 1833 (http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=1833) reports discontinued links to KBabel po compendium files. I googled a lot and seems the problem goes back to the KDE days. I am looking at removing those links and perhaps the whole TMX and PO compendium module pages, but before doing that I would like to know if any of you has been able to use them and in case which link you have used. Feedback is appreciated. Thanks Michele
