change TDE language setting instantly
by Stefan Krusche 13 Sep '18

13 Sep '18

Good day everyone, is there a way to switch language setting for the GUI directly, i.e. not by clicking through TDE-Menu -> Trinity Control Center -> Regional & Access. -> Country/Region & Language -> Language List -> Move Up to have a particular program start with a different language? Something like TDE Keyboard Tool in Systray? Or via an command line option? Thanks. Kind regards, Stefan

Another drag and drop problem, this time with Firefox
by iadest＠o2.pl 12 Sep '18

12 Sep '18

Hello I have another problem with drag and drop, it may be a bug but... I don't know how to trace it precisely. Generally in Firefox until version 48, dragging an URL icon (favicon in address bar) to desktop caused opening a menu which allowed to save or link (create .desktop launcher) to a site. This still works in later versions of Firefox in XFCE and MATE, but in TDE since version 48 it started to behave differently: Now Konqueror asks for filename, and then saves just a text file with url as text, and these files are unusable as launchers. This is probably not a Firefox problem, as this dragging still works well in MATE and XFCE without problems. The problem is present only in TDE. Is it possible to give a template to... I don't know, Konqueror?, how to create .desktop file for a specific application or content type? Or is it a problem with not full drag and drop implementation? MCbx

OT - nfs hangs
by Thierry de Coulon 12 Sep '18

12 Sep '18

Hello all, I understand this has nothing to do with trinity, but there seem to be people on this list that understand this stuff more than I do. I've got an older machine (quad core) that I wanted to convert in a network backup. It runs Jessie and mounts an nfs share on my main machine so that I can copy important files. The problem occurs when I transfer bigger quantities of data (I mean several GB, mostly in smaller files of a few hundred MB): - If the server runs Debian stretch, everything is fine. - If the server runs AntiX 17, the copy sooner or later hangs because the server lost the network (the message I got is err_network_changed). there may be another way but I solve the problem by restarting teh machine. Now, the question is this: AntiX 17 is based on stretch. It does not run systemd, nor does it network manager. Network configuration is done with ceni (method static, class auto). The exports file is the same in both cases (copied from Debian to AntiX). If anyone has a clue to give me where to look for this difference in behaviour, I'd be glad! I like AntiX because of no systemd, but... Thierry

kopete IRC #trinity-desktop still alive?
by Stefan Krusche 09 Sep '18

09 Sep '18

Good day everyone, I am trying to connect to #trinity-desktop with kopete and always get an empty chat window. I don't have much experience with kopete/IRC and am frustrated cause I can't find the reason why it doesn't work. I have a few questions about kopete: 1.) Are the server lists still up-to-date and usable? 2.) Do I have to register to join #trinity-desktop? (which wasn't necessary 1 1/2 years ago, IIRC.) 3.) kopete seems to try only one server at connect and after timeout or when it failed (I don't know, no message) it stays offline and doesn't try another or the next server in the list. This happens with #irchelp on EFNet. Also it doesn't always seem to connect to the first server in the list as an priority. Is this normal/expected? However, I am able to connect to other channels like #bash, #freenode-community, #devuan and others. I got stuck and feel puzzled. Kopete's UI doesn't help me either. Please forgive my ignorance and advise on probably basic things. What do I miss? Kind regards, Stefan

Mirroring internal screen
by Thierry de Coulon 07 Sep '18

07 Sep '18

I have a notebook that I connect to my school beamer with a HDMI cable. In Trinity Control Center I can see both my laptop screen and the HDMI screen. I cannot use it if I don't "extend the desktop" to it, but then all my apps open stretched overt the two and control is very difficult. I can set the external screen to the same resolution as the internal, but there is no option to just mirror the internal screen on the external. Am I missing some black magic? Thierry

digikam can't save images in PNG format after editing
by Stefan Krusche 05 Sep '18

05 Sep '18

Good day everyone, is anybody using digikam to edit images? I encountered this bug recently, that digikam fails with an only general error message "Failed to save file" when I try to save an image file in PNG format. It is reproducible like this: 1. start digikam 2. open any image to edit 3. save as: select PNG file --> failure Exspected behavior: 3. save as: should save the converted to PNG format image file Other formats seem to work well, I have tried .jpg, .jp2 In ~/.xsession-errors there are some message which may be related: Opening the image file into the editor: TQFile::open: No file name specified TQFile::open: No file name specified Exif Qt::Orientation: 1 Saving: TQFile::open: No file name specified TQFile::open: No file name specified JPEG image preview size: (1280 x 720) pixels - 80124 bytes libpng error: known incorrect sRGB profile digikam: WARNING: error saving image '/home/user/xyz/lnw39a.digikamtempfile.tmp This tmp file is created with zero size and vanishes after clicking ok in the dialog with the error message. Searching the greatest database of all ages taught me that the libpng error message is commonly known and that something had been changed in handling PNG format which I don't understand really, but my guess is that the interaction of digikam with libpng might be affected. System information: TDE R14.0.5 (PSB) digikam 0.9.6 using PNG library version 1.6.28 Devuan ascii Before I try to find out more and/or create a bug report I'd like to ask if anyone has seen this error and knows what to do about it. Any ideas and hints welcome. Kind regards, Stefan
