Find key combination for specific character under a giving keyboard layout

by Stefan Krusche

Good Day Everyone! I wonder how I can find out which key combination prints a specific character, generally, I mean when the character is not printed on the keyboard itself. Case: I want to print the symbol for TM (trade mark) but I don't know the keys to get it. Kind regards, Stefan

[tde-devels] Mageia 8 - no mga packages named trinity-tdm or trinity-twin, or any other except filesystem

by Felix Miata

I recently upgraded a 32-bit Mageia 7 to Mageia 8. Now the only Trinity packages found are those already installed, all 14.0.7. No error messages appear in package management (urpmi.update -a). # rpm -qa | grep trinity | grep mga7 | wc -l 38 # rpm -qa | grep trinity | grep mga8 | wc -l 1 # rpm -qa | grep trinity | grep mga8 trinity-filesystem-14.0.12-1.mga8 # urpmi trinity-tdebase No package named trinity-tdebase # What's going on, or not? Are mirrors updating from 14.0.11 to 14.0.12 for Mageia? -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg.

message bus - connection refused - WTF?

by William Morder

This issue just started, seemingly out of the blue. My system has been running just fine, and I haven't made any changes or installed anything new or upgraded in a long time. The first signs I had were earlier this evening, when suddenly one of my external hard drives was not recognized. When I tried mounting and unmounting, everything seemed very slow; still couldn't get it to recognize that external hard drive. Finally I unmounted everything, then tried just that hard drive, and it mounted normally. When I tried to open it, however, Konqueror started acting really weird, and a window opened but nothing was displayed. At last I decided to reinstall my system, but after booting up again, nothing has changed in this behavior. I did finally get a message window (not in TDE style, but rather in XFCE or Gnome or whatever) saying something like "message bus could not connect, connection refused - but why all of a sudden? Everything has been running great. It occurs to me that somebody on the mailing list mentioned that Konqueror was acting a little weird, and I wondered if this could be related. I am running Devuan Chimaera (= Debian Bullseye) and currently using the TDE stable repositories. Any help would be appreciated. Bill

Saving Konqueror sidebar item positions

by Hunter Ellett

Hello users and congrats to the team for the R14.0.12 release, Does anyone here also happen to use "Multiple Views" for the Navigation Panel (the sidebar) of Konqueror? For example, I like to have the metabar, root folder, and home folder ones open. However, even after saving the profile with these laid out the way I like they arrange themselves based on where the sidebar tab for that item is. The home folder one takes up 90% of the space while the metabar and root folder are scrunched at the very bottom which make them nearly useless. It seems that Konqueror only saves which ones are open, and not where you placed which one and what size they should be. Is saving this even a feature, and if so how could it be accomplished? Thanks. -- ~ Hunter

TDE R14.0.12 released, new target R14.0.13 started...

by Slávek Banko

Hi all, after R14.0.12 was released, the window for the development of R14.0.13 has already been opened. The first pull-requests have already been merged, the first builds of the packages was launched. 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. Along with the release of R14.0.12, the building of packages for Ubuntu 20.10.x (Groovy) will be stopped. So the upcoming R14.0.13 will no longer be available for this distributions - the packages will not be available in the PSB repository. If you are still using this distributions, you should consider upgrading to a newer version. Publishing the first R14.0.13 preliminary packages I suppose on 8 May. Thank you for your support! Cheers -- Slávek

How do you submit a bug?

by Michael

I wanted to file (and hopefully fix) the bug with Konqueror’s docs I just mentioned. Went to https://www.trinitydesktop.org/ , clicked ‘Bugs.’ Was redirected to mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org , created an account. Signed in. Loads a page that looks like some settings page, click ‘Issues’ does nothing, can’t see any TDE issues. Clicked the ‘Home’ icon (which is a green tea cup? Kinda wtf?) Shows a page with ‘Repositories 0’ so... How does one use this? Can one use this? Also, tried: https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/?q=Konq https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/?q=Konsole https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/?q=konsole All return: “No repositories found” Are there instructions somewhere? Would somebody please, kindly, create a link to them from whatever that Dashboard thing is that you first sign into? Stupid user I am not, but this is a bit much... Dazed and Confused, Michael

Konqueror: Externally get locations?

by Michael

Hi All, Goal: Run a {script} to capture all open Konqueror {data} such that running a second {script} will restore all the prior Konqueror sessions/windows. (In the desktop the script was run from, although capturing all desktops wouldn’t necessarily be bad.) Question: Is there some way to externally get all the locations from all the open Konqueror sessions/windows on a specific desktop? Just want to know if it’s doable and if it is, a pointer to which tool to use. Bonus question: It looks like you can call Konq w/ an explicit window size (and position?)? --geometry <geometry> sets the client geometry of the main widget Anyway to grab that externally too? Or? Maybe a way to export and save temporary profiles? Whatever method works :) Thanks, Michael PS: This should probably be removed from the Trinity Konqueror Handbook. (Maybe replace with a TDE wiki page?) 12. Questions and Answers 12.7. I can't find the answer to my question here. Take a look at http://www.konqueror.org/faq.html or http://www.konqueror.org/konq-java.html.
