it being my weel for stupid, elementary questions . . .
by dep 11 Dec '13

11 Dec '13

. . . is there any quick and easy way, other than dragging and dropping, to put kmenu items (actually, submenu items) in alphabetical order? and possibly set it so that new items take their proper alphabetical place? packages seem to put themselves at the top of the list or else in its midst through some undiscernable formula. thanks in advance for advice in this regard. -- dep The shortest distance between you and great fingerstyle guitar playing?

Hello list, in the control center - Appearance & Themes - Window Decorations there are 9 options to choose from. In my old System running kde3.5, I have 18. Is there a way to create or import the missing styles, specifically CDE ? tia. kai

not serious, but certainly annoying
by dep 10 Dec '13

10 Dec '13

hi, people . . . hope all is well with one and all. i've meant to ask about this for a long time, and now as i wait for a print job to complete i have a chance. it is an annoying issue involving konqueror that i hope a little configuration tweak might fix. it has been around for multiple versions now. it's this: let us say that i am using konqueror to look at a directory. i see a pdf file that might be what i'm looking for. i click on it and it opens in the embedded pdf viewer. nope, wrong file. click the up arrow to get back to the directory. only now, it has gone from icon view to detailed list view. i have nothing against detailed list view. i use it often. but it is not welcome to insert itself whenever it feels like it. so, then, the question: how can i get it to remain in icon view after having looked at a pdf in the embedded viewer; else, how to i get it to forego the embedded viewer entirely in favor of some other pdf program, so i keep konqueror going in icon view? hope the question is understandable. thanks. best, -- dep The shortest distance between you and great fingerstyle guitar playing?

Annoying Curser Problem
by David Bell 09 Dec '13

09 Dec '13

Greetings, I find that my curser jumps all over the place periodically whilst typing in Kmail. It used to happen whilst I used the Kmail, in various distros using KDE4, and seems to be present when I use Trinity with Ubuntu 12.04. Has anyone else experienced this and is there a remedy? TIA David -- W. Devon ------------ Using GNU/Linux

Wireless connection in Trinity 3.5.13.2
by Lisi Reisz 08 Dec '13

08 Dec '13

I am having problems with the wireless connection in Trinity 3.5.13.2 My trusty wicd has just let me donw for the first time. KWiFiManager fares no better. The box is a laptop, and must be able to rove - and get connected when doing so. I can launch the connection manually, but it is for someone else and it is mission critical that she should be able to do one click, or at most two, and wireless is launched. What can I do to get this thing launching automatically? The wireless controller is an Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG in a Dell Inspiron 9300. Ideas please! Lisi

Clock on panel "loses" date; TDE 3.5.13.2 on Debian Wheezy
by Lisi Reisz 07 Dec '13

07 Dec '13

The clock is telling the time reliably, but the date disappears when I reboot or shutdown and start again later. It is easy to persuade it to return, but this is not my laptop and I need it to Just Work. Any ideas, please? Lisi

amarok
by Dave 06 Dec '13

06 Dec '13

I've been checking out the amarok-3.5.13.2 package. What ever happened with the MYSQL integration since the 3.5.13 release? --and I tried to compile an older version 1.4.10 . It errors out with a KDE error ---- sounds like something else removed from KDE, or my bad setup. checking for KDE... configure: error: I can't find the designer plugins. These are required and should have been installed by kdelibs root [ /sources/amarok-1.4.10/build ]# Meanwhile, I know there was some releases in between 1.4 and 3.5.13. I'll look for one of them.

Taskbar seeing double
by Lisi Reisz 06 Dec '13

06 Dec '13

On a new installation of Debian Wheezy with Trinity 3.5.13.2, taskbar seems to be seeing double.Every open window has two "windows" in taskbar. Since teh Desktop I am setting up has a fairly narrow panel this rapidly becomes very confusing. Has anyone any idea how I can persuade taskbar to go back to seeing only one image per open window/application? Thanks, Lisi
