I see this error popup on various installations. The instant one is a 32bit
Bookworm freshly upgraded from Bullseye with 14.0.12. Bullseye does it too. The
trigger is left clicking on the menu starter. On those where it ever occurs, it
only happens once. Trying again after dismissing the popup always works. Anyone
familiar with it, what to do to eliminate it?

Hi all,
some time ago I was thinking about whether we want to become an active
member of social networks with our project. Things like Facebook and
Twitter have always been "no go" zones for me. However, I've been
thinking about the Mastodon platform for a long time.
Mastodon is a decentralized platform for publishing short messages and
pictures. It is based on open source architecture and therefore this
platform is close to our ideas. You can see profiles of other projects
like @kde@floss.social, @gnome@floss.social, and others.
I assume that it would help to "make us visible" and information could be
published there, for example about the release of new versions, or some
useful information regarding development, screenshots, solving issues and
community info.
Does it seem like a good idea for us to have an official communication
channel for our project on Mastodon? What is your opinion on this?
Cheers

Hi all;
Maybe somebody can reproduce this: opening the attached pdf in kpdf only shows the formulas, but not the text. Opening the same pdf in xpdf works flawless.

Hi all,
quick question regarding Trinity's Dolphin:
When "Save view properties for each folder" is disabled, any setting related
to sort mode (by name, by date etc.) or sort order (ascending, descending) is
reset as soon as the folder is changed. This also applies to the "Show Hidden
Files" option.
Even if "All folders" is selected in "View" > "Adjust View Properties ..." the
above persists. The "Apply view properties to:" options only seem to have any
effect if "Save view properties for each folder" from the settings is also
enabled.
So without enabling per-folder settings (and having .d3lphinview files
everywhere) there is no way in Dolphin to set persistent global view
properties like sort order - or am I missing something?
Best regards,
Leskala
Trinity 14.0.6 preliminary.
Don't know if it is a feature of ksnapshot or a misconfiguration
somewhere from me, but it is getting absolutely annoying what happens.
I have a website, a document or whatsoever on my screen in full
A4-papersize. Now I want a printout of a small part of it. Call
ksnapshot, choose "region" "new snapshot" and then draw a border around
the desired part. Press "print" and then print it. Bull... I get a
print in landscape, useless and even worse not even the original layout
reappears.
Stop ksnapshot, restart it and same procedure with again the same
miserable result.
Stop, restart, same procedure but no actual printing, instead I look
into the printer properties. And there, big surprise, landscape was
marked as to be printed BUT all 4 orientations were grayed out, so I
couldn't change that.
Checked in tdeprint the printersettings, nothing wrong, in "instances"
"settings" all 4 orientations were available and portrait was marked as
to be applied in the default printer.
Checked kprinter and of course the settings of tdeprint were there also
valid.
But then I had an idea. If I selected in ksnapshot a larger part of the
screen, say more than half A4, what would happen?
Yes, some ugly words from me and there it was: portrait was marked but
still all 4 possibilities grayed out.
So ksnapshot decides how it wants to print and doesn't leave the user a
chance to get a result, that he wants. Utterly bull....
Any suggestion, where I could look to alter this behaviour?
Phiebie.
Hello,
The french encoding "West European 8859-15" in Kmail,
is not memorized.
So, I have to put it again at each mail sending,
otherwise, Kmail refuses to send the mail.
How to break free of tne encoding ?
Thanks, Cheers,
André

Hi All,
I use two virtual desktops. The majority of usage is with the first
desktop. Occasionally any simple mouse pointer movement on the first
desktop throws the focus into virtual desktop 2. The mouse is nowhere
near the panel workspace switcher/pager.
No data but the abrupt switch seems to occur after the desktop has been
idle for a while. Screen saver is set to 10 minutes blank screen.
The panel workspace switcher/pager applet scroll wheel cycling is
disabled and I am certain I am not touching the scroll wheel or mouse
buttons.
I tried different mice.
I tried different mouse pointers and currently use the System theme
option until finding the root cause.
Desktop-->Behavior-->Mouse Button Actions are configured to No Action/No
Action/Desktop Menu.
Desktop-->Taskbar-->Actions: Show Task List/Activate Task/Show
Operations Menu.
Desktop-->Panels-->Appearance-->Advanced Options: Applet Handles
configured to Visible, Fade out, or Hide makes no difference
Any insight or help appreciated.
Thanks for your time!

Hi All,
Is there a way to fine control mouse pointer movement within TDE (not
with xorg.conf.d)?
I have acceleration set to 1.0. The pointer begins accelerating
immediately with little motion from my hand.
I have tried manually editing the kcminputrc file to less than 1.0
acceleration, but that does not slow the acceleration.
I'll settle for work-arounds if they exist.
Thanks for your time!

Good Day everyone,
I still wonder, after all those years, how to configure root login shell
in konsole to ask again and not just die when I mistyped the password.
Konsole is launched with the arguments "su --login"
or "su --login -c 'mc -c'".
'su' in a USER shell also dies after one login attempt. So, it seems, su
needs to be configured. But it is hard for me to see through su/pam
configuration.
Any help or hint is muchly appreciated.
Thanks and kind regards,
Stefan
