openSUSE 12.2 lockup starting DM after exiting startx
by Felix Miata 24 Jan '13

24 Jan '13

I've a bunch of systems with OS 12.2, but only one or two with TDE. On the one currently wired up, which uses sysvinit-init instead of systemd init, I normally boot to runlevel 3, same as on most of my systems. If as normal user I do startx -- :1, exit TDE, and then switch to runlevel 5, the system quickly locks up completely, and puts the display in sleep mode. IIRC, this doesn't happen on KDE3 or KDE4 systems. :-( Where in the world does one begin to try to figure out the cause? Any ideas? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!

Mirror site for Slavek's stuff?
by russell＠lls.lls.com 18 Jan '13

18 Jan '13

Perhaps it's just me but the bandwidth for http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/slavek-banko/axis/ubuntu/ seems errr.... challenged? :-) I've just done an apt-get update and I'm seeing download speeds of a few 10's of kB from pearsoncomputing.net and and estimated time of hours. This seems to be the norm and not network congestion at my end as the stuff from the debian repositories in the same 'apt-get run' came down the pipe at normal speeds. Is there a mirror that might be better connected? I've looked at the mirrors listed on http://trinitydesktop.org/contributors.php#contentdistribution but they don't seem to have slavek's stuff. If there isn't a mirror.... I have capacity on a server in a datacenter in Germany and could host a mirror (the server in question is a backup and just sits there ticking over 99.99% of the time). -- 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 | --------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the live cd /etc/network.interfaces file here. Covers all the potential interfaces. Are the appropriate modules loaded for your nic, firmware on latest Debin is separate, not sure about Ubuntu.

I was wondering if there is anything happening in terms of updating Trinity translations? Slavek, you mentioned that this will be one of the tasks after releasing 3.5.13.1. I'd like to help with Polish translation. Janek

kdesktop-trinity & wheezy
by Mag. Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 17 Jan '13

17 Jan '13

Hi all, I just ran into a bad problem with kdesktop-trinity on wheezy. After "apt-get dist-upgrade" I had no working tde anymore. binutils<2.20.2 are required, but wheezy has since some weeks 2.22-7.1, which shows up in the middle of the upgrade process :-( Ok, I modified "kdesktop-trinity" to accept binutils <2.30.2 and finished installation. However, my session came up as usually but right after initialization it shut down again. Looking closer I found only "kdesktop_lock" is linked to "libbfd-2.20.1" which comes from binutils-2.20.1. Replacing "kdesktop_lock" with a stub brought up TDE as expected. Did anybody else run into that problem, too? Nik

Running kpdf without trinity (and no admin privileges)
by Nicolas Bercher 15 Jan '13

15 Jan '13

Hi, I'd like to run trinity parts, at least kpdf, on a machine where I have no admin privileges (it is a Debian Squeeze and runs gnome2). So far, I've: 1. downloaded the following packages: kpdf-trinity_3.5.13-0debian9+r1258283+pr3~squeeze_amd64.deb kdelibs4c2a-trinity_3.5.13-0debian9+r1261449+pr12~squeeze_amd64.deb libtqtinterface_3.5.13-0debian9+r1258011+pr2~squeeze_amd64.deb libqt3-mt_3.3.8d-0ubuntu0+sr73+pr181~squeeze_amd64.deb 2. extracted them using =dpkg-deb -x=: this creates ./usr, ./opt/trinity, etc. 3. tryed to run kpdf: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$(find opt/trinity/lib usr/lib -type d | xargs echo | sed "s; ;:;g") opt/trinity/bin/kpdf this sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH=opt/trinity/lib:opt/trinity/lib/mime:opt/trinity/lib/mime/packages:opt/trinity/lib/trinity:\ opt/trinity/lib/trinity/plugins:opt/trinity/lib/trinity/plugins/styles:\ opt/trinity/lib/trinity/plugins/designer:usr/lib:usr/lib/pkgconfig:\ usr/lib/qt3:usr/lib/qt3/plugins:usr/lib/qt3/plugins/inputmethods:\ usr/lib/qt3/plugins/imageformats In the end, kpdf is running but: 1. I throws many errors a start time: 1. complains about dcop server being absent: can I skip this? I found nothing relevant in the kpdf man page 2. could not find mime type "application octet-stream", seems to be related to 3. then says "no mime types installed" 2. file and edit menus have "No text!" names. I guess I can figure out why because kpdf is missing its files (i.e., there's no /opt/trinity/share/apps/kpdfpart/part.rc et al. in the kpdf scope), but I don't know how to fix it. Note that I copied ~/.trinity/share/apps/kpdfpart/part.rc. I'd be glad if someone has the willing to help me polishing this! I really miss kpdf at work! Thank you, Nicolas PS: Would it be possible to install and run parts of trinity from a fakeroot env?

Checking available new packages updates
by Patrick Serru 13 Jan '13

13 Jan '13

Hi All, Can someone tell me how to check, from TDE, if there are new packages available for updating (especially XWindows)? I only see the hermetic "kpackage" in my installation. Should I go in gnome to check-update packages? thank you
