Sound coming from Internal Speaker instead of bluetooth device.
by CHRIS M 04 Oct '25

04 Oct '25

I got TDE installed, I am using the same user account as I was Plasma 6. I installed Blueman, deleted my speaker's connection, paired it to blueman. But instead of sound coming from the bluetooth Alexa speaker, I am only getting sound from the internal speaker. HELP! I've looked in KMIX and don't see anything about switching to bluetooth for sound output! Thanks, Chris

Website is down, yet again..
by Chris M 04 Oct '25

04 Oct '25

"Hello, are the lights still on? or did TDE go out of business?" I'm afraid to nuke my system to install TDE, because I tried installing openSuse in a VM, and when running the commands to install TDE, they all errored out. So I guess I will just wait it out, until everything is fully functional again. https://imgur.com/a/ssuJ523 Thanks, Chris

I am interested in trying TDE again, but like, how do you update Leap? I know in Tumbleweed it was "sudo zypper dup" Thanks,Chris Current OS: Debian 13.0.0 with Plasma 6.

Kate toolbar has become scrambled, almost unusable
by J Leslie Turriff 28 Sep '25

28 Sep '25

My Kate toolbar has become seriously deranged, with items out of order or missing. I tried using Toolbar Menu => Configure Toolbars... to fix it, but removing/readding/rearranging/resaving the icons does nothing. I'm reluctant to just erase the various .trinity/share/*/kate*rc files and start over because of the amount of toolbar customization involved. <https://c.mail.com/@649596501445582267/Z3aOiUr9-kbhFojWHpDOzg> is a link to a screenshot showing the difference between the toolbar and its supposed configuration. Note how the buttons are rearranged, and how the Open File button is completely missing.

Live CD with Debian/TDE?
by dep 28 Sep '25

28 Sep '25

Hi, everybody! We're two months away from Microsoft Corp. discontinuing "support" of Windows 10. In conjunction with this, Windows 11, which is not just awful but also invasive, requires that many people purchase new computers. No doubt some will do this -- there will always be people who have more dollars than sense -- but many may be ripe for an alternative. I'll be in the next couple of days writing a piece on that alternative. The best choice, in my view, is Debian and TDE. So I'm seeking an installable live CD that provides just that. I thought there was one, "Matrix OS," but when one follows the link on the LiveCDs page -- https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/LiveCDs -- it throws a "your account is suspended" error. Is there another Debian spin containing TDE? It would be good if TDE were included in DEbian already -- Enlightenment is in the repository -- but I am not here to solve that problem. I'm here to rescue those whose computers have been abandoned by msft and, with luck, increase the TDE user base a bit. Thing is, I cannot recommend any other distribution or desktop. -- dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://ofb.biz/author/dep/

Hi all! I just finised uploading the latest version of "darkness".

Debian question
by J Leslie Turriff 27 Sep '25

27 Sep '25

I'm considering switching from openSUSE to Debian. I have several encrypted partitions in a separate storage volume that I would like to mount in /home. Can the Debian installer do that without reformatting them? (openSUSE's YaST installer once could do that but no longer does, one of several reasons for moving away from openSUSE.)

Pretty cool
by dep 26 Sep '25

Here's the modern, grown-up analog to the computer-in-keyboard devices of s generation (or, could it be, two generations) ago. Because it has Raspberry Pi 5 innards (plus 16 gigs of memory and a decent SSD), it will run a full Linux install -- Raspberry PiOS is Debian, currently Bookworm -- and I have run TDE on a Pi 5 eith no problem. At $200 it is expensive for a Raspberry but with, now, a good keyboard, cheap for a decent computer. https://www.theregister.com/2025/09/25/peak_pi_reached_with_raspberry/?td=r… dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://ofb.biz/author/dep/
