Survey: distros with KDE?
by Steven D'Aprano 09 Nov '20

09 Nov '20

Hi all, I'm currently running Fedore 29, but I will soon need to upgrade or reinstall a new distro. I'd like something with TDE available. Can we do a short survey of: - which distro you are running - whether it provides TDe from the official repos; - and whether you had trouble installing and running TDE. Thanks in advance. Steve

Are you interested in arm64/armhf packates for Ubuntu 20.10 (Groovy)?
by Slávek Banko 09 Nov '20

09 Nov '20

Hi, are there users among you who use Ubuntu and RPi? Because Ubuntu 20.10 (Groovy) mentions RPi4 in the release notes, I noticed an interest in arm64 and armhf packages for Groovy. Currently, we have built only armhf packages only for LTS versions of Ubuntu. That's why I'm now deciding whether to build arm64 and armhf packages for Groovy as well. Are there anyone else who would welcome such packages? Cheers -- Slávek

What happened to kdocp, the GUI dcop browser?!
by Stefan Krusche 09 Nov '20

09 Nov '20

Hi, sometime there was a GUI program called kdocp to browse the dcop objects tree. I can't find it neither in the repository (apt/devuan) nor on my system. Does anybody know where or how to find it? Thanks and kind regards, Stefan

soundkonverter-trinity - installed but will not run?
by William Morder 08 Nov '20

08 Nov '20

Just wondering if anybody else has had problems with soundkonverter-trinity. I installed the package and dependencies, and when I try to reinstall or upgrade, both apt and aptitude tell me that it's already installed, and the most recent version, etc. But when I try to run the program, I get an error message (see attachment for screenshot). TDEinit could not launch 'soundkonverter-trinity', could not find the executable. In the meanwhile, I've been using soundconverter, which is adequate for the moment, but not what I want for regular use. TDE's soundkonverter-trinity offers so many more options for fine adjustments, and sound quality is very important to me, as music is my side hustle. ;-) This is the only problem I've been having with TDE at the moment. By the way, I am running Devuan Beowulf, and just ran upgrade, but I am told that everything is current. I would appreciate any help or suggestions here, as I use this program a lot. Bill

Strange audio problem
by deloptes 07 Nov '20

07 Nov '20

Hi, I encountered a strange audio problem. I and a peer have skype installed and use TDE. On my PC call audio notification (the ringing) is audiable after restart and login. On the peers PC the audio notification (the ringing) is not audiable after restart and login. It turns out there skype starts from the session after pulseaudio and does not produce any sound, because it registers on ALSA something. Stop and start skype makes notifications work again. Where and how is that order stored and can be setup? thanks in advance --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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

pmount vs. udisks2
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 07 Nov '20

07 Nov '20

Hi all! Is it just me or can sombody else replicate this behaviour: 1) pmount installed, udisks2 not installed: I get the "device inserted .."-dialog, but the device icons do not show up. Mounting and unmounting works. After removing all external devicis I still have /media/ populated with "interesting" folders, each containing one file ".creaded_by_pmount". Zhese survive a reboot, so I have to remove them by hand. 2) udisks2 is installed, pmount not instaled: I get the "device inserted .."-dialog, and all device icons as expected. Mounting and unmounting works. /media/ is working as expected, i.e. folders disappear when the device is removed. So ... save to say "install udisks2 and forget aboult pmount" ? pmount i used in exegnulinux, that's why I ran into it.

TDE R14.0.9 released, new target R14.0.10 will start soon...
by Slávek Banko 05 Nov '20

05 Nov '20

Hi all, now, after the release of R14.0.9, we are going to open a window to work on R14.0.10. There are already several pull-requests waiting to be merged. And also our translators do not stop translating, when the translations will also be merged into the upcoming release. If you used the Preliminary Stable Builds repository only temporarily, and you prefer to stick on the official final release, it is now the best time to switch to the official repository. The packages in both repositories will be identical for some time, so it is smooth to change the apt source if you want. Otherwise, we will be very happy if you help us in testing the upcoming release. I intend to begin building R14.0.10 preliminary packages on November 8th. Thank you for your attention :) Cheers -- Slávek

Just tried updating my Fedora desktop. It fails on all the Trinity RPMs because they aren't signed. Am I missing something?

TDEInit cannot launch [xyz]
by Michael 05 Nov '20

05 Nov '20

This started a week or two ago it seems, definitely before 14.0.9. I do remember getting something very occasionally that was similar, but a logout/login would clear it up. Now it’s happening every time I launch KMail. Click KMail button in panel: “nice -n 2 kmail -caption "%c" %i %m” :Pop-Up: Sorry - Kicker TDEInit cannot launch ‘nice’. But KMail is nice’d and seem to be working the same as always. michael@local [~]# pss kmail NI TIME SZ COMMAND 2 00:00:40 215388 kmail -caption KMail -icon kmail -miniicon kmail Any thoughts? Best, Michael
