mobile phone sync with TDE - how the pro is doing it
by deloptes 03 Dec '15

03 Dec '15

Hi I have one very important question as well. How are you guys/pros syncing your mobile phones with TDE. Years ago I worked on opensync, which died because of syncml. I am also following the story of syncevolution, but they provided only support for kde4+ I recall the time (must be 10y ago) when I had no issue to sync up my palm III with KDE ... and after this all went wrong. Since the time I have a smart phone it does not work for me. I would never use an external service that is not under my control, but I could run a service on my public server. (Working) solutions are highly appreciated thanks in advance regards

How to ignore dependency for apt-get update
by deloptes 02 Dec '15

02 Dec '15

Hi, do you have a handy answer/link to this issue with google-chrome in TDE? I installed it forcing ignore dependency and it works just fine without this library # apt-get upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies: google-chrome-stable : Depends: libappindicator1 but it is not installed Description-en: allow applications to export a menu into the panel A library to allow applications to export a menu into the panel. Based on KSNI it also works in KDE and will fallback to generic Systray support if none of those are available. I think there should be a way to remove the dependency from the package, I know how to do it before installation, but is there (I'm sure there is) a way to do it after the installation. Thanks in advance

[trinity-users] starttde missing from $PATH on openSUSE 13.1
by Felix Miata 02 Dec '15

02 Dec '15

# which starttde returns (not found) executed on any vtty, but returns /opt/trinity/bin/starttde if run in Konsole. This means to start an R14 session with startx requires the fullpath as option to startx, rather clumsy. Anyone know what it would take to put it in the path? This is on my first exercise of upgrading from 3.5 to r14.0.2, which fell far short of simple or easy as expected. Nevertheless, except for absence from $PATH, all seems good. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

Hybrid Live Images
by Glen Cunningham 30 Nov '15

30 Nov '15

To the hardworking Devs and ISO-builders, Please, that's pretty please with sugar on top, can we have hybrid .ISOs for the expected new batch of live CDs/DVDs with TDE R14.0.2?? My reasons for asking .... 1. Many modern PCs and most laptop/netbooks do not have an optical drive. 2. I know there are utilities for writing an ISO to a USB-stick but they are not particularly user-friendly. eg. unetbootin is a total PITA. Besides a simple "sudo dd if=path-to-hybrid of=/dev/usb-stick" is trivial and works as expected. 3. Boot and run from a USB-stick is much faster than any CD/DVD so demonstrating to potential new adopters is a better experience. Thanks in antic, Glen

downloading from quickbuild inordinately slow
by Ken Heard 25 Nov '15

25 Nov '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Yesterday I downloaded from ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net the upgrade to TDE 14.0.2 for wheezy. The downloading was ultimately successful, but it required approximately twelve hours to complete. On the other hand all my other downloads, including those from the debian wheezy depositaries, are super fast. I am in Thailand but have a fibre optic connection to the ISP close by and from there by satellite directly to the rest of the world. It would consequently seem that any slowdown is not at my end. Is such a low speed for downloads from quickbuild normal?

Folder size !
by Baron 25 Nov '15

25 Nov '15

Hi Guys, I've just noticed a folder that I have restored from a backup only shows a size of 1Mb when I hover the mouse over it. Refreshing the desktop doesn't alter the reported size. However if I look at "Properties" it shows me the correct size of 1.3Gb. Thanks: -- Best Regards: Baron

k3b want's a 800MB CD
by Thierry de Coulon 24 Nov '15

24 Nov '15

Hello all, I've run in a problem with k3b. I wanted to try Qt4--Fsarchiver that comes (in one form) as an Ubuntu live CD. The problem is that the image is 880 MB but k3b "sees" it as a CD. It cant't burn it on a 700 MB CD and it does not accept a raw DVD so you're stuck. The workaround for me was to use Brasero that remained from the basic Gnome install, but I wonder what, if anything, we can do to change that behaviour. Qt4-archiver does it's job by the way, and the live CD gives you a GUI environment (Unity of course...). I think I still prefer Image for Linux and the command line however. Thierry

PclinuxOS 64 and 32bit repository
by alistair izzard 23 Nov '15

23 Nov '15

Hi I did manage to update to 14.0.2 however I get a lot of file size mismatch errors when I did so (I actually cheated to get it installed by using rpm -Uvh once the files downloaded using apt-get) and a lot of others can't update at all. I hope the list is updated soon as this is a very nice release and is faster and more stable which belies it's .0.1 increase in version Alie
