Kapptemplate fails on Debian Wheezy

Hi, I'm trying to use Kapptemplate v1.1.1 on TDE R14 and it seems to be having problems with libtool. Here's the output of make after creating the app with kapptemplate: >make[3]: Entering directory `/russell/src/klt-2.0/klt' >/bin/bash ../libtool --tag=CXX --mode=link g++ -Wno-long-long -Wundef -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wchar-subscripts -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -O2 -g -O2 -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -I/usr/include/tqt -o klt -R /opt/trinity/lib -R /opt/trinity/lib -R /usr/lib -L/opt/trinity/lib main.o klt.o kltview.o kltpref.o kltiface_skel.o -ltdeio -ltdeprint >libtool: Version mismatch error.

how to setup environment for compiling older KDE3 packages on TDE r14
by Emanoil Kotsev 20 Apr '15

20 Apr '15

Hi,nice to meet you and many many thanks for the wonderful work you are doing with the trinity desktop project. I really appreciate it! I have one basic question. I recently updated debian wheezy to jessie and choose TDE r14. I have been using KPlayer v0.6 and to be able to use it in KDE 3.15 I compiled it without major issues with the Kdevelop before.Now switching to TDE r14 it tells me it does not find kde-config. Also I don'T see libDCOP etc. How should I set the environment to be able to build the package? Thank you in advance.

New panel shadow screenshot
by Alexandre 18 Apr '15

18 Apr '15

Hi all, Here is a screenshot of a new feature added by Tim, from bug 2189. It adds the possibility to have a shadow to the panel, as on Plasma 5. Just use the same settings as on the second screenshot, especially the shadow position, to use it! The result is quite nice! Have a great day! -Alexandre

KMail notifications
by Darrell 02 Apr '15

02 Apr '15

Is there a way, perhaps with dcop or another applet, to query kmail about new messages and then send a notification/email to a remote user? I have a remote TDE system running kmail and I want to be notified when there are new messages. korn might be close to what I seek but seems to need human interaction, unless I misunderstand. A cron script that looks at file date stamps in the user's mail directory probably would suffice, but a TDE approach would be nice. Affected mails are POP3, so no IMAP approach. Thanks. Darrell

what replaced kcmshell applets when kinfocenter removed?

Lots of nothing Googling this. Could not find any discussion of kinfocenter removal other than mailing list and https://bugs.trinitydesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2135 mention that it happened.

Mainstream KDE is going to need systemd
by Alexandre 23 Feb '15

23 Feb '15

Hi, By reading PCLinuxOS texstar twitter feed, I learned that mainstream KDE is going to need systemd. Here you can read it: https://twitter.com/iluvpclinuxos And I found this article which explains why they want to do this: http://blog.davidedmundson.co.uk/blog/systemd-and-plasma I do not want or need to comment on this, since as an user, I don't care that much about init system, but I wanted to share this info here. Have a great day! -Alexandre

Different System monitor comparison - New color theme proposed for KSysGuard
by Alexandre 10 Feb '15

10 Feb '15

Hi, I want to propose a new color theme and graph settings for KSysGuard, because the actual one are rather ugly and visually overloaded, to my opinion. I also wanted to post screenshot of different system monitors available on other OSes or on other desktop environment. Thank you! Tell me what you think! -Alexandre

Linux desktop environment market share survey
by Alexandre 09 Feb '15

09 Feb '15

Hi all! I found a new survey about Linux desktop environment usage survey: http://www.itworld.com/article/2881172/survey-says-kde-plasma-is-the-most-p… It has KDE Plasma at first place, and surprisingly, XFCE at second place. Sorry, but TDE is almost the smallest one. These numbers says that classical desktop environment can still have a great part of ''market'', since XFCE is quite a classical desktop environment. One thing that I am very sorry, is how TDE got almost no media coverage at the R14.0.0 release, and almost none at all for the stable quality releases as 3.5.13.x series. What strikes me, is that some things need to be done to attract more attention, more users and more developers. Since classical DE as XFCE can have a large market share, I think that it is still possible to get more users, possibly by ditching away the perception that it is the outdated kde3. What do you think? Have a great day! -Alexandre
