Debian 9 an TDE
by Jan Stolarek 20 Jun '17

20 Jun '17

Hi all, Debian 9 has just been released and I am considering upgrading my machines, both using TDE and Debian 8. Has anyone already tried this and run into any problems with Trinity? Are there even Trinity repositories for Debian 9? Janek --- Politechnika Łódzka Lodz University of Technology Treść tej wiadomości zawiera informacje przeznaczone tylko dla adresata.

LibreOffice integration permanently lost
by Timothy Pearson 16 Jun '17

16 Jun '17

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA224 Just as a heads up, TDE has permanently lost LibreOffice integration due to the decisions of the upstream LibreOffice devs: http://anzwix.com/a/LibreOffice/Remove%20TDE%20Integration%20(vclplug,%20Ad… We need to plan out a roadmap to determine whether or not we should be trying to get e.g. GTK3 into a form we can use as the backend and common interface to third party programs like LibreOffice. I'd like to schedule a community meeting on #trinity-desktop for this weekend, Saturday, at 2:00PM CST to discuss further. Thanks!

System Guard
by Dave 15 Jun '17

15 Jun '17

I have a new Ryzen system with B350 chip set, and an old Ralink RT3060 pci wifi card . I've installed Ubuntu.Xenial and Trinity-R14.0.4. I set up system guard on the task bar with 3 windows. first window CPU second window Net, third window shows drive activity. CPU and drive windows work as planned. The net will not show any activity whether it's by Cat-5 cable or by WIfi. It's just dead. I don't know if it's the new hardware or a bug in new release of trinity. Xenial shows that they are NOT using eth0 or wlan0. It's labeled the lan port as enp30s0, and the wifi as wlp32s1. I've never run into these labels before, I know it has to do with Rules. Can't show any display activity, but both ports work as they should. How to debug? Dave

External drive gets mounted twice
by Thierry de Coulon 11 Jun '17

11 Jun '17

Hello all, I've installed openSUSE 42.2 and so upgraded to TDE 14.0.4 (previously I couldn't on my old 13.1, something broke so I stayed at 14.0.0). I don't know which of the two is responsible, but now, when I plug in an external drive, it gets mounted twice. On my desktop I see the drive itself, and the partition. For example, when I plug in my 16GB mac formated usb key, I get both "14.8 GB removable device", mounted on /deb/sdg, and "macUSBDrive", mounted on /dev/sdg1. Of course the former throws an error if I try to open it. This is not so bad and I can live with it, but I wonder where this is distribution specific, machine specific or if you all see this too. Regards, Thierry

cursor problems (again)
by Lisi Reisz 01 Jun '17

01 Jun '17

I have downloaded the Debian package big-cursor (I have sadly given up on comixcursors for now - I'll try again in Stretch). It is definitely there: brian@Linux:/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc$ locate big-cursor /usr/share/doc/big-cursor /usr/share/doc/big-cursor/README.Debian /usr/share/doc/big-cursor/changelog.gz /usr/share/doc/big-cursor/copyright /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/big-cursor.pcf.gz /var/cache/apt/archives/big-cursor_3.9_all.deb /var/lib/dpkg/info/big-cursor.list /var/lib/dpkg/info/big-cursor.md5sums /var/lib/dpkg/info/big-cursor.postinst /var/lib/dpkg/info/big-cursor.postrm /var/lib/dpkg/info/big-cursor.preinst brian@Linux:/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc$ But I cannot find a way of persuading Trinity Control Centre mouse themes to see it. Any suggestions? Or any other suggestions as to how I can get a large, preferably red, cursor (but any large one will do) in Debian 8 and Trinity 14? Thanks. Lisi

Setting up power-off icon
by Lisi Reisz 01 Jun '17

01 Jun '17

I want to set up a large power-off button, with an icon, preferably on the desktop but on the panel would do. The ordinarily available one will not do because this is for someone with very poor sight and the ordinary power-off button is inextricably linked with lock screen. Well, I can't extricate it. I THINK I can manage the three other large icons that are needed on the desktop, but this one has stymied me. I could rephrase the question: how do I produce an icon that, when clicked, operates /sbin/poweroff. Jessie with TDE 14, installed from Slávek's repositories. Replacing a badly scammed Windows 7! Help!! Lisi

Hi, Did you installed knemo-trinity? This is the TDE-specific package.

Re: TDE Fundraiser

> All, > > It's that time of year again! As we look toward the release of Debian > Stretch and another version of TDE, I'd like to ask for your continued > support to help keep TDE online. I installed Trinity as an experiment 2 weeks ago, when I came across your website while looking for an old application, and it's so nice, I'm doing all my work in Trinity now. I loved KDE 3.5, and I was sad when I had to leave it six years ago, to upgrade to Debian 6 and KDE 4. After upgrading from Debian 6 to Debian 8 a few weeks ago, two old favourites, Kasablanca and KHexEdit, were no longer available, and I could not even find the source code for KHexEdit, until I remembered reading about Trinity some years ago, and found your website. I think it's wonderful that you're maintaining the KDE 3.5 look and feel, functionality, and applications. I have donated 30 dollars to Trinity via your donations page. I'm sorry it can't be more at the moment, money is a bit tight. Konqueror has improved since KDE 3.5, but I can run Konqueror-KDE4 in Trinity from a menu item with the command /usr/bin/konqueror, and thus get the best of both worlds. Some other KDE applications have sadly deteriorated in the later versions of KDE4. In particular, KolourPaint in Debian 8 has been damaged by a very bad revision, so I am using KolourPaint-Trinity now. It is far better. When I installed Debian 8, I was offered a list of 7 desktop environments to install. I would certainly have tried Trinity at that time, if it had been on the list. If Konqueror-Trinity and Konsole-Trinity need to be given new names in order to get Trinity into the Debian distribution, (to avoid a clash of names with KDE), perhaps I could suggest Clarity for Konqueror-Trinity and Simplicity for Konsole-Trinity, since these names rhyme with Trinity, and suggest some of the defining characteristics of TDE. Yours sincerely, Chris Austin

frequent hangups
by Istvan Gabor 26 May '17

26 May '17

Hello: My TDE session frequently hangs. A message window opens at the bottom right corner of the screen saying: "New display output options are available! A screen has been added, removed, or changed." After this the screen inputs (mouse and keyboard) become unresponsive. Running programs keep running. I have to hard reset the computer. This is becoming annoying. I have openSUE 13.2 with TDE R14.0.4. Any idea what causes this and how to fix it? Thanks, Istvan
