Upgrade lenny -> squeeze
by Brad Alexander 28 Apr '11

28 Apr '11

I'm having an issue with my daughter's netbook that I just upgraded from lenny to squeeze. The main problem is that it is 2100 miles away. In any case, I did the upgrade according to the squeeze release notes. When I did the upgrade, I changed the sources.list to point to squeeze, including trinity. However, it deinstalled kde-trinity, kdemultimedia-trinity and kdewebdev-trinity. So after the upgrade, I tried to reinstall. # apt-get install kde-trinity kdemultimedia-trinity kdewebdev-trinity Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: kdemultimedia-trinity : Depends: libarts1-xine-trinity (>= 4:3.5.12-0debian7+r1175295) but it is not going to be installed kdewebdev-trinity : Depends: quanta-trinity (>= 4:3.5.12-0debian7+r1158456) but it is not going to be installed Depends: kommander-trinity (>= 4:3.5.12-0debian7+r1158456) but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages What do I need to do to get this reinstalled? Thanks, --b

Can't reach keyserver - "host not found"
by Xyzzy 27 Apr '11

27 Apr '11

I've been happily using Trinity for a couple of weeks, and needed to reinstall it after changing distros -- but the GPG keyserver (command copied from instructions) is coming up as host not found. Here's what I get from a nslookup: Server: 156.154.71.16 Address: 156.154.71.16#53 ** server can't find keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net: NXDOMAIN PS. Thank you (to anyone working on the project) for creating, working on, and hosting Trinity. I first installed Linux in Spring 2008 and KDE 3 was what made me fall in love with it!

Hi if I write a new message, or make an answer, I cannot triple click (anymore?) in the new window to select a line. -- Viele Grüße, Hartmut Hungerhilfe: http://www.thehungersite.com Ohne Zensur suchen: http://suche.amnesty-bergedorf.de/ ökologisch suchen: http://www.ecosia.de Das heutige Motto: Manchmal ist es besser, den Mund zu halten und als dumm zu gelten, als zu reden und jeden Zweifel zu beseitigen.

Printing problems
by Brad Alexander 17 Apr '11

17 Apr '11

Hi, I am having a problem setting up printing on my daughter's computer, which is running Debian/lenny. She got an HP Deskjet 3050 wireless printer, and CUPS sees it just fine, however, when I try to print a test page from cups, it says Unsupported format 'application/postscript'! However, whenever I try to print a test page from within Trinity, using kcontrol -> Printers, I get the following message: A print error occured. Error message received from system: cupsdoprint -P 'HP_DJ_3050' -J KDE Print Test' -H '127.0.0.1:631' -U 'user' -o 'multiple-document-handling=separate=documents-uncollated-copies orientation-requested=3' '/opt/trinity/share/apps/kdeprint/testprint.ps' " execution failed with message: successful-ok Any idea whats going on here and how to fix it? My other problem is that I don't have physical access to the box, only over secure connection. Thanks, --b

LMDE: kdm-trinity
by HHa 17 Apr '11

17 Apr '11

Hi, I have installed kdm-trinity only. If I do sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm-trinity I get kdm and kdm-trinity offered with kdm marked red. When I choose kdm-trinity, I can see that /etc/X11/default-display-manager has been overwritten but cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager gives /opt/trinity/bin/kdm What is wrong? -- Viele Grüße, Hartmut Hungerhilfe: http://www.thehungersite.com Ohne Zensur suchen: http://suche.amnesty-bergedorf.de/ ökologisch suchen: http://www.ecosia.de Das heutige Motto: Man kann gar nicht so dumm denken wie manche Leute sind.

Terribly buggy
by Volker Wysk 14 Apr '11

14 Apr '11

Hello I've changed from KDE4 to Trinity, because KDE4 is so buggy. Now I'm trying to set up everything, but Trinity appears to be very buggy too. Everything worked fine when I was using KDE 3.5, but now it's a mess. I'm wondering it Trinity and KDE4 get in each other's way. - I can't set the screen's resolution, refresh rate, or gamma value. It used to be configurable via the control center, but the controls disappeared from there. You can use System/KRandRTray to set the resolution and refresh rate, but it won't remember the setting. - Amarok crashes since a few days. A few seconds after you start a song, it generates a segmentation fault. I've tired it in KDE4, but it's the same. I've removed and installed the amarok package, but it's still the same. I've removed all amarok related configuration files (those with "amarok" in the name) from ~/.trinity and from ~/.kde, but it stays the same. Of course the crash manager crashes, when you try to report the bug. :-> - KMail crashed ("aborted") immediately after starting it. When you started it in the terminal, you even got some information about the cause: kmail(5507)/kdecore (KConfigSkeleton) KCoreConfigSkeleton::writeConfig: !!!!!!! ERROR !!!!!!! - KHTML default stylesheet version mismatch. Aborting. Check your installation. File used was: /opt/trinity/share/apps/khtml/css/html4.css. Expected STYLE_VERSION 1 Then I've tried it in KDE4, and - bingo - it works again, even after going back to Trinity. - When logging out of Trinity, there sometimes appears an error message that some policy is faulty (I have to write the message down). When logging into KDE4, and into and out of Trinity again, the message disappears. - The font sizes have a life of their own. Sometimes when I log in, they are huge, and mess up the layout (amarok, for instance). Sometimes they are tiny. When I start amarok, and I get huge fonts, it fixes itself when I quit and start amarok again. I can configure the fonts in the respective program's settings, but only part of the fonts can be configured there, and changes take effect only sometimes, or only for some font settings. I know that there are some fonts, to be configured in the control center. But that works only sometimes. There are a lot of places where the fonts are almost unreadaby small (the menus, for instance). I've tried to configure them, but it doesn't work, or it works and goes back again. This isn't a bug report. I have to take a closer look, first. I wonder if I'm the only one with all of these problems. If not, how can you live with it? But from what I've seen on the net, Trinity should be quite stable and useable. So what's going on here??
