nightly builds: lost wallet
by Dexter Filmore 18 Jun '12

18 Jun '12

KWallet did not ask me for my password and the daemon seems not to be running. Have to enter passwords each time I do something in kmail. not good. Kopete would be affected if it ran. Anything I can do about it at the moment? -- -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GCS d--(+)@ s-:+ a C++++ UL++ P+>++ L+++>++++ E-- W++ N o?

what ver of (k)ubuntu is most suitable for tde
by Lou Gogan 17 Jun '12

17 Jun '12

Greetings Believe it or not I've only come across a reference to trinity in the last week or so when checking out porteus usb-stick linux. It really cheered me up that kde3 (as tde) is still not only alive but seemingly very healthy! At present I am still using kubuntu 8.04 for obvious reasons but would be delighted to install a more up-to-date os and tde on another partition on my hard drive. I have already downloaded kubuntu 12.04 (always in the hope, in vain, that it had somehow become more kde3 than kde4!) but I don't see any mention of (k)ubuntu 12.04 in the installation instruction page, so I presume I should use a release from last year. Also I notice that ubuntu 11.10 is mentioned rather than kubuntu 11.10. Is it recommended that I use ubuntu 11.10 rather than kubuntu 11.10 in case of conflicts? Or does it matter at all? I also have an iso of xubuntu 11.10 - would that be suitable? Any advice would be welcomed. Thanks Lou

Ubuntu 12.04 + TDE
by westbound＠gmx.net 14 Jun '12

14 Jun '12

Hello, yesterday i installed TDE (nightly builds) on top of Ubuntu 12.04. On login, all i get is a blank desktop with an equally blank xterm, nothing else. Oh yes, the first time i also got this: "cannot open theme file /opt/trinity/share/apps/kdm/themes/kubunty-trinity" I linked the tdm folder to the above, but nothing changed, except that the error message disappeared. Is this the current state of the project for 12.04, or am i doing something wrong? Thanks, Mike -- NEU: FreePhone 3-fach-Flat mit kostenlosem Smartphone!

kpowersave 3.5.14
by Greg Madden 13 Jun '12

13 Jun '12

New laptop, installed Debian Wheezy AMD64, which is Debians current testing branch and TDE 3.5.14 from nightly builds., built for Wheezy. TDE is working well here. Since this is a laptop install I want to usekpowersave. I get the kpowersave icon in my systray but there is no inormation or options available when I right click on the icon. Package info suggests it supports ACPI, APM and PMU, screensaver, DPMS, among others. Any info on what apps TDE has available to manage or show laptop specific items would be appreciated. Thanks -- Peace, Greg

really weird trinity oddity
by Nix 11 Jun '12

11 Jun '12

Using Trinity trunk, finally (switched from KDE 3.5.10, yay!), there is one definite oddity. I use a program (xplanet) as my desktop background, and fvwm 2.6.5 with a 3x6 set of viewports. KDE 3.5.10 respected the program's refresh rate and reran it only when the requested interval passed, but Trinity is rerunning it whenever the viewport changes at all, Since I have viewport moves bound to keys and that can happen a dozen times a second, this is less than ideal. I thought maybe something in Trinity was looking at the _NET_DESKTOP_VIEWPORT, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Does anyone know why this might be happening? (I'm investigating further, of course.) -- NULL && (void)

Manual "save session" problem on latest Slavek packages
by Nick Leverton 09 Jun '12

09 Jun '12

Hi Slavek, I've a small problem which has arisen lately since tracking your updates, which wasn't in 3.5.12 or 3.5.13. When I do a manual "save session", then the "saving session" dialogue box never goes away. In fact a second "save session" dialogue pops up, and they repeatedly take turns in forcing themselve to the foreground. This option is only available if you choose "Restore manually saved session" in kcontrol Session Manager settings so I guess not too many people may be affected. It's a bit awkward though as it's one option I do rely on. How can I help debug it further ?

How to make proper backtraces?
by Dexter Filmore 02 Jun '12

02 Jun '12

Can't trace crashes. What would I need for, let's say, kopete. Is there a general approach? This backtrace appears to be of no use. This is probably because your packages are built in a way which prevents creation of proper backtraces, or the stack frame was seriously corrupted in the crash. passprompt ptrace: Kein passender Prozess gefunden. /home/dexter/11345: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden. /home/dexter/.trinity/tmp-shodan/drkonqiPJG8gE.tmp:1: Error in sourced command file: No stack. -- -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GCS d--(+)@ s-:+ a C++++ UL++ P+>++ L+++>++++ E-- W++ N o?

compile src on ubuntu 12.04?
by Dexter Filmore 31 May '12

31 May '12

So, I'd like to compile the 3.5.13 src on ubuntu 12.04. Before I start making deb-build scripts: anyone got some? I have the 3.5.13-monolithic tarball. (Or could one simply get the deb-src for the oneiric-packages and run them through buildpackage?)

desktop icons
by Lisi 29 May '12

29 May '12

Hello all! Next problem (a minor one this time): how do I put an icon of an application on the desktop when the application is not in the menu? The application is definitely there; it can be started from the launcher. But Kappfinder doesn't find it and it isn't in the menu. In case it is relevant, the required icon is a shortcut to Evince on TDE 3.5.13 on Debian Squeeze. Thanks. Lisi
