Kmail nightmare
by Luciano ES 24 Feb '11

24 Feb '11

It's not that I want any special treatmente here, it's just that I do. Every time I boot/log in, I have to suffer through these bugs: http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=428 http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=431 Bug #431 forces me to perform two checks before I can go on. Those are bad enough, but really bad is this bug with Kmail which is forcing me to log off and log in several times a day: http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=438 This has just become unacceptable. I use my computer to work, and I need to check my mail several times a day. The damn thing keeps getting jammed over and over, I have to restart my session several times a day. And this is Linux, not Windows or Mac, so restarting a session actually means closing all my currently running apps then restarting them after I log in again. They start automatically, but it takes a while for them to be ready. It's not like Windows and Mac, where we can log off, come back and everything is still there up and running just the way we left it. And I have to reconfigure my keyboard every frigging time I log in. It's driving me nuts. Another very irritating thing is to think that I had none of these problems when I was using the 9.04 Trinity distro. How can software get WORSE? I just upgraded because... Well, pure peer pressure. Everywhere I go (forums, IRC) people keep telling me "yak yak, your OS is old as dust, upgrade already, yakety-yak". Damn, do I regret upgrading! But I just have NO TIME to go back now. I've wasted too much time already fine tuning the one I have now. Please, for the love of humanity, get Kmail fixed stat. Thank you for listening. -- Luciano ES >>

Any interest in collecting kthemes or color-schemes for Trinity?
by David C. Rankin 24 Feb '11

24 Feb '11

All, I have a number of kde3 themes (and emerald themes) that I have created over the years that I'm happy to give to trinity if there is any interest in collecting them. Here is an example of a BlackGold (dark) theme that I have updated in Trinity: [165k] http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/dt/trinity/ss/dcrTrinityBlackGold.jpg The theme uses keramic style and a dark color scheme: http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/dt/trinity/cfg/color-schemes/dcrTrinityBlackG… (you may have to adjust the gold depending on monitor brightness :) The .kth files are a bit large for me to host at home. If you want to try the ktheme, (with font & icon settings, etc...) it is available here: http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/dt/trinity/cfg/ktheme/dcrBlackGoldTrinity.kth Let me know if there is any interest in collecting these to either package or make available on the wiki. I probably have a dozen kthemes in varying darknesses and probably 100+ emerald themes. A sample of the emerald themes are available here: http://drankinatty.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=0 I guess I could just upload the .kth files to deviantart as well..., but if you want to broaden the selection in Trinity -- they are all GPL. -- David C.

simple packages
by Werner Joss 23 Feb '11

23 Feb '11

hello all, I'm a fresh trinity user and so far, I like it :) so I decided to resurrect some of my favourite kde 3.x programs which are not in the trinity repos and built very simple (checkinstall-) packages from them. they can be found here: http://www.hoernerfranzracing.de/zip/trinity/ maybe someone here can use them, too. werner

konqueror and SOCKS
by Mag. Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

Is there a way to get konqueror to work with a SOCKS proxy? I do this: $ ssh -D 12345 user@remote Iceweasel works fine when I set the proxy to SOCKS localhost:12345. now I'd like konqeror to use that SOCKS4/5 server on localhost. But whatever I check on the SOCKS tab, I get an error message. I tried tsocks, but konqueror still connects directly to the net. Does anybody have an idea? Nik

LibreOffice
by HHa 22 Feb '11

22 Feb '11

Hi, I installed LibreOffice, but the desktop integration package libreoffice3.3-debian-menus_3.3-6_all.deb does not work properly wit Trinity, e. g. Open a document does not work. Is that a Trinity problem? -- 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: Die Dummheit von Regierungen sollte niemals unterschätzt werden.

by Paul Cartwright 21 Feb '11

21 Feb '11

this morning I noticed my system was rather sluggish. One thing I found was nepomukserver, and about 5 other processes.. I am running Debian Squeeze & trinity kde3.5 . I turned off the desktop search function, is there anything else I can do? I had those processes running & I use gnome desktop! my other user runs trinity.. -- Paul Cartwright

Fwd: [arch-general] Trinity Binaries - Unofficial Repo - Thank You Kainting Chen!
by David C. Rankin 20 Feb '11

20 Feb '11

Here is a quick forward from the Arch list regarding Trinity binaries for Arch Linux (svn) ----------- All, Kaiting Chen has provided server space for Trinity binaries. Currently I have the i686 files uploaded and will upload x86_64 shortly (after my kids are done with toontown....) The url for the i686 repo is: http://www.kiwilight.com/~drankinatty/trinity/i686/ (Trinity packages are 2/19/2011 builds) The x86_64 repo will be the same url with x86_64. Trinity needs a clean environment currently (no kdemod3). If you have had a prior kdemod3 install, then delete: /var/tmp/kdecache-$USER/ksycoca /var/tmp/kdecache-$USER/ksycocastamp and move ~/.kde somewhere else. If you have kde4 installed, then expect akonadi/nepomuk and all the kde4 autostart files in /usr/share/autostart to run (Trinity devs are working on a way to ignore all the kde4 autostart files) To install trinity, just add the repo to /etc/pacman.conf: [trinity] Server = http://www.kiwilight.com/~drankinatty/trinity/i686/ Then just do 'pacman -Sy trinity-kdewebdev' and it will pull in the complete Trinity desktop (kdewebdev requires all trinity dependencies) I recommend installing it in either a clean Arch install, or just create a new Arch virtualbox VM and install it there. It is a darn good looking desktop. x86_64 packages by the morning :) See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Trinity for current details :) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. -- David C.
