In my pad, remains:
#615 KSVG shows only black previews
#744 Some built-in desktop backgrounds don't work
#812 krdc crashes with SIGABRT
#859 Kaffeine does not block screensaver
#922 when logging out with unsaved file, trinity does not ask to save it
To upcoming updates I intend incorporate:
+ commit 43bb5b9, closes
-- #372 Storage media applet doesn't show usb stick at session startup
-- #385 Unmounted removable device icons do not appear on the desktop
Does anyone have any other useful patches suitable for backport? The
second question is when to say "stop" and ask Tim to pull packages to
official apt sources?
I remind the address of PPA:

I have a problem with kpowersave and ACPI on my T60p. kpowersave complains
about missing ACPI support, battery status is not shown (it's always on AC,
even when AC is disconnected).
I can retrieve the battery status with acpi:
$ acpi -b
Battery 0: Discharging, 98%, 02:16:03 remaining
Has anybody a clue what I am missing?
It's running wheezy and TDE 3.5.13. acpid is running, thinkpad relevant
modules are loaded, hal-trinity is installed, too.
Nik
When I go to install the package kaffeine-trinity on Debian Squeeze, Trinity
3.5.12, it demands kdesudo-trinity as a dependency. Why? And how do I get
round it?
Thanks,
Lisi
Is the consensus of opinion that 10.5.12 is steady and rock solid enough for
me it give it to someone else (a definite non-geek)? I get the impression
that 10.5.13 is still not bug-free enough for Just Using.
Thanks,
Lisi
It's time for our TDE spring fundraiser!
The TDE project relies on your financial support to continue development
of this reliable and easy-to-use desktop environment. As my way of saying
thank you I have developed a new theme engine for Qt4 that allows you to
use your TDE styles and file dialogs in new Qt4 applications, as well as
interface methods required to easily convert common Qt4 objects to TQt3
objects and vice versa.
If we can raise the $2,000 required to keep the TDE project running for
the rest of the year by April 30, 2012, I will release the source code for
this new theme engine under the GPL and also integrate it into the next
TDE release. Once this engine and the conversion methods are part of TDE,
the foundation will have been laid for work to begin on a Webkit-based
replacement for the aging KHTML engine.
Donations can be securely made to the project at this address:
http://trinitydesktop.org/donate.php I will also update that page from
time to time with progress made towards the $2,000 goal.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Library requirements: TQt3, Qt4, and TDE core
Lines of C++ source code: 4207 (theme engine and Qt4 object translator)
License: GPL
Functional quality: ALPHA
Screenshots of the theme engine in action are attached, showing common TDE
styles in use with Qt4 applications. If you want to see this engine
released and think the TDE project is worth a few dollars, please donate
to help keep the TDE project going!

Forgive me for not bringing this up earlier.
We invite everyone to attend the March Meeting on IRC
(irc.freenode.net, #trinity-desktop-meeting).
It will take place on 25 March 2012, at 1200 EST (that's 1600 for my
friends in London, and 1100 for Central Time).
If you cannot make it, or you are busy, please let me know ASAP so
that I can change the date or time.
You may also leave topics to be discussed with any opinions or such.
And this is also a friendly reminder that Etherpad still exists
(etherpad.trinitydesktop.org).
Thanks,

Hi,
not sure my subject made sense so i'll try to explain a bit further.
Short version :
I basically want to build my own kaffeine 0.8 source (including numerous
patches) on my freshly upgraded ubuntu 11.10 (unity).
Is it correct to assume that using your kde3 tde packages i'll be able
to build my kaff source and run it on my unity system ?
Can i build and run vanilla kde3 app source using your libs but not your
desktop ?
Long version :
I found out a bit too late that kde3 libs were ditched so i'm now stuck
with kaff 1.2 which is far from satisfying my requirements..
I've been trying for the past few days to figure out a proper way
(meaning without breaking the current ubuntu kde5 libs) to restore kde3
libs on my ubuntu 11.10 system in order to build kaffeine but i'm no deb
package wizard.
As soons as i searched for kde3 i was pointed towards trinity and so
found out about your kde3 desktop and ppa which probably includes all
the required kde3 libs to run kaffeine.
I've also tried to run your kaffeine 0.8 package but after a successful
installation, it fails to run with an error.
I've managed to run configure in my kaffeine source using the following
command :
#./configure --prefix=/opt/kde3 --without-xcb --without-lame
--without-gstreamer --without-xinerama --without-oggvorbis
--with-extra-includes=/usr/include/tqt/
the --without(s) are there to skip unnecessary parts and should be ignored
but i had to add the tqt include path otherwise it was complaining about
some missing tqt headers files which are located in the regular not /opt
path.
make then fails after outputing a very large quantity of "undefined
reference to", like the last one here :
.libs/playlistimport.o:(.data.rel.ro._ZTI15NoatunXMLParser[typeinfo for
NoatunXMLParser]+0x10): undefined reference to `typeinfo for
QXmlDefaultHandler'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[5]: *** [libkaffeinepart.la] Error 1
And i can't see any actual error statement but obviously something is
not working.
Thx for reading, any help wil be greatly appreciated.
Marc
I was wondering if there is known issue with KMail in Trinity? I cant
seem to get it to work with ANY email providers yet the same settings
work fine in KMail for KDE4 and Thunderbird..

thanks for your time. I thought I have tested all combinations of
(un-)checking "include in manual mail check" for the different accounts
without any luck. I might misunderstand the options. I'll try again.

I wanted to apply 1f39650 for qt-x11-free that fixes the 812, but its
application has resulted in crash almost all programs - see
http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::5251 - with this I need help.
In addition to patches for qt-x11-free on my list of issues remains to be many
problems with Kaffeine, for which I do not have patches and solutions. And
then also a minor issue with displaying of SVG wallpapers (bugs #744, #615).
Does anyone have any other useful patches suitable for backport?
Packages with the above patches are in my PPA source ready to test - for
Squeeze, Oneiric, Natty, Maverick and Lucid. I will be happy if you want to
test. See https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~slavek-banko/+archive/axis
