kmail through ssh tunnel
by William Morder 08 Oct '20

08 Oct '20

Since we are going off-topic all over the place, I will try to be the pillar of stability here. (I know, I know, but nobody else will do it.) I am starting a new thread, because this goes off-topic in a good way. I believe it was Michael who wrote this memorable line, which immediately got my attention: > POP through an always present SSH tunnel. Now, I have used ssh tunnels for lots of programs that are more (what's the word?) "passive"; that is, listening to online radio, xmpp clients, wget, youtube-dl and apt-get and other things like that, where I am mostly downloading data. But when I tried to run Kmail over any proxy connections, it would crash. It seemed to me that an ssh tunnel would be the way, but how to do it? Bill jabber/xmpp dr_mojo_contendo(a)hot-chilli.net

How hard to make KMail multi-threaded?
by Michael 08 Oct '20

08 Oct '20

Not horribly important, but whenever KMail checks mail is ‘freezes’ for a bit and interrupts typing/mouse clicks (just for KMail, rest of system runs fine). Would it be hard to make KMail multi-threaded? I’m assuming that’d ‘fix’ the freezes… Again, not at all critical, but if it’s easy, I’ll get off my butt and put in a feature request. Best, Michael

how to upgrade TDE without ALL language packs?
by William Morder 07 Oct '20

07 Oct '20

Now that I checked my own sources.list, it occurred to me to try an upgrade, and there are lots of new Trinity packages available. However, many of these are language packs that I don't really need: tde-i18n-af-trinity tde-i18n-ar-trinity tde-i18n-az-trinity tde-i18n-be-trinity tde-i18n-bg-trinity tde-i18n-bn-trinity tde-i18n-br-trinity tde-i18n-bs-trinity tde-i18n-ca-trinity tde-i18n-cs-trinity tde-i18n-csb-trinity tde-i18n-cy-trinity tde-i18n-da-trinity tde-i18n-de-trinity tde-i18n-el-trinity tde-i18n-engb-trinity tde-i18n-eo-trinity tde-i18n-es-trinity tde-i18n-et-trinity tde-i18n-eu-trinity tde-i18n-fa-trinity tde-i18n-fi-trinity tde-i18n-fr-trinity tde-i18n-fy-trinity tde-i18n-ga-trinity tde-i18n-gl-trinity tde-i18n-he-trinity tde-i18n-hi-trinity tde-i18n-hr-trinity tde-i18n-hu-trinity tde-i18n-is-trinity tde-i18n-it-trinity tde-i18n-ja-trinity tde-i18n-kk-trinity tde-i18n-km-trinity tde-i18n-ko-trinity tde-i18n-lt-trinity tde-i18n-lv-trinity tde-i18n-mk-trinity tde-i18n-mn-trinity tde-i18n-ms-trinity tde-i18n-nb-trinity tde-i18n-nds-trinity tde-i18n-nl-trinity tde-i18n-nn-trinity tde-i18n-pa-trinity tde-i18n-pl-trinity tde-i18n-pt-trinity tde-i18n-ptbr-trinity tde-i18n-ro-trinity tde-i18n-ru-trinity tde-i18n-rw-trinity tde-i18n-se-trinity tde-i18n-sk-trinity tde-i18n-sl-trinity tde-i18n-sr-trinity tde-i18n-srlatin-trinity tde-i18n-ss-trinity tde-i18n-sv-trinity tde-i18n-ta-trinity tde-i18n-te-trinity tde-i18n-tg-trinity tde-i18n-th-trinity tde-i18n-tr-trinity tde-i18n-uk-trinity tde-i18n-uz-trinity tde-i18n-uzcyrillic-trinity tde-i18n-vi-trinity tde-i18n-wa-trinity tde-i18n-zhcn-trinity tde-i18n-zhtw-trinity Is there any way to upgrade without also downloading ALL of these?!?! I am pretty sure I did not install earlier versions of these packages. Bill

Startup in Ubuntu, teams and zoom
by Uwe Brauer 06 Oct '20

06 Oct '20

Hi As most of you, I have to use teams and zoom (and to a lesser extend skype). However all these program consume quite a bit of CPU and *all* start when I am logging in. In order to deactivate this feature, using Ubuntu 16.04 and the relevant trinity version, I have to login to Ubuntu and use the Start Applications configuration tool to remove these 3 programs from starting. Is there any trinity tool doing the same? I can't find one. Or can I use the Ubuntu Start App configuration tool from trinity? Thanks and regards Uwe Brauer --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting

IMO konsole uses "pseudo-transparency", which does not allow the hidden windows shine through - at least not on my systems. > > Nik > >> Cheers, >> >> Pascal >> >> ____________________________________________________ >> 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… >> You are right, the hidden windows are not seen through the console background, only the screen background.

It works very well and in fact I use more than one konsole profile depending on its usage. It is one pretty nice feature I like among the plethora available in TDE. Cheers, Pascal
