Problems with ark
by Rolf Schmidt 17 Apr '14

17 Apr '14

Hello Trinity-Team, I use ark very offen and would like to open archive files with special editors for example php-files with geany. When I select the file and use the function "open with", select geany it will be open with geany. But when I check the checkbox to make the selected tool the default for this type of file ark didn't remember this settings and allway show the files with the internal viewer. Is there a trick to change this behavior - as it was in old kde 3.5? Many thanks for your suggestions Rolf

Is there a TDE build for Raspberry Pi RaspBian?
by Alexandre 16 Apr '14

16 Apr '14

Hi, I would like to know if there is a set of packages available for the Raspberry Pi model B with 512mb of RAM mini computer. I use Raspbian (based on Debian 7). I bought it last week and with the turbo (well...) overclock at 1000mhz, it has almost adequate processing power for running TDE, probably similar to the power of PCs used in the first part of the KDE3 era. Thank you very much! -Alexandre

Trying to activate wlan0 and eth0
by Robert Peters 16 Apr '14

16 Apr '14

Hello, My Thinkpad laptop has a Lubuntu partition that has wired and wireless access: the modules are iwlwifi and e1000e. Another partition runs exeGnu Trinity 14 but no internet connection. I used modprobe to install the above modules and put their names in /etc/modules, but wlan0 and eth0 are still not seen. What to do? Robert

Dead Sound Card
by Lisi Reisz 13 Apr '14

13 Apr '14

I have a client whose sound has suddenly died, after running well since the system was installed. (Six months?? A bit more?) The obvious explanations are user error (clicked something without realising) or dead hardware. She is running Debian Wheezy with TDE 3.5.13.2 on an oldish Dell laptop. Since I haven't got the laptop here, I haven't got its specs. I cannot have the laptop to work on for the moment, since she is using it a lot for now. All suggestions or explanations welcomed, Lisi

Re: [trinity-users] Doing Non-Destructive Installations?
by Tini 12 Apr '14

I did a quick check, my local shop sells 'HGST Touro Mobile' XHDD for $55. So, I'll grab one next week and backup all of my home files (shoulda did that already) and then install the new OS. --- Original Message --- From: Thierry de Coulon <tdecoulon(a)gmail.com> To: trinity-users(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net Subject: Re: [trinity-users] Doing Non-Destructive Installations?

Yep, but be aware that if anything goes wrong you WILL lose your data. You don't say how much space you have or why another drive is no option, but having 700 GB of valuable data and no backup... that's dangerous. Hard disks do die...

Printer Control not showing jobs in queues
by russell＠lls.lls.com 11 Apr '14

11 Apr '14

Does anyone know why the Trinity KDE Control Module for printers doesn't show jobs in the print queues? The problem is probably best illustrated with a screen scrape: http://ruffle.me.uk/nojobsshown.png You can see in the xterm window the current queue status and in the Control Module window no jobs showing up. I've tried in both normal user and Administrator mode. I'm running: % kcontrol --version Qt: 3.3.8d KDE: 3.5.13.2 Trinity Control Center: 3.5.13.2 On an older KDE3 system: % kcontrol --version Qt: 3.3.8b KDE: 3.5.10 KDE Control Center: 3.5.10 with, for all intents and purposes an identical printer setup, it works. -- Regards, Russell -------------------------------------------------------------------- | Russell Brown | MAIL: russell(a)lls.com PHONE: 01780 471800 | | Lady Lodge Systems | WWW Work: http://www.lls.com | | Peterborough, England | WWW Play: http://www.ruffle.me.uk | --------------------------------------------------------------------

Wifi connection problem on new ThinkPad
by Robert Peters 10 Apr '14

10 Apr '14

Hello, On a new Lenovo ThinkPad T440S I installed Trinity from exegnulinux_4.2.iso dated 24-Jul-2013. This is in addition to a preinstalled Windows 7 Professional. Running wicd does not detect any wireless networks, however, wicd in Trinity in my older laptop does detect them. And Windows in the ThinkPad also detects the networks, so wireless must be enabled. AND wicd doesn't even see a wired network when connected with a LAN cable. Do I need to configure wicd? Or install from a newer image such as exegnu_wheezy_r14_26032014.iso? Or install (L|X)Ubuntu and set up Trinity on top of that? Robert

kmail library problem
by aw30＠sayne.org 09 Apr '14

09 Apr '14

I've just upgraded to Debian Jessie, and things seem to work, with two exceptions: 1 I couldn't run xinit /opt/trinity/bin/startkde because ksmserver-trinity was not reinstalled by default. I think because of dependency problems, since I had to downgrade a few packages to get it to install. But that is now sorted. 2 Having got Trinity to run, everything (so far) seems to work except kmail, my favourite program! 4:3.5.13.2-0debian7.0.0.+0 has been installed. I get the following: 23:40 ~>kmail kmail: error while loading shared libraries: libkmailprivate.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory But it's there... 23:41 ~>la /opt/trinity/lib/libkmailprivate.so -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8071664 Jun 14 2013 /opt/trinity/lib/libkmailprivate.so It seems to be the only file with this problem - it has the same permissions as all the rest. Where do I look next? And before you ask, no, I'm not using kmail to write this, but webmail, so sigs and things are a bit different... cheers ant

Translating Trinity
by Jan Stolarek 08 Apr '14

08 Apr '14

I already said this twice in the past, but there wasn't much response: I'd like to help with translating Trinity into Polish language. At the moment there are many translations missing. I am willing to do the translation as long as I don't need to get into technical details like learning some fancy developer tools and alike. Just plain text files or some really simple dev tools.
