Thanks. As I can't yet get systemsettings to run, does that app allow changing the view to classic tree view?
No. kcontrol is also available though (although not through the menu).
Regarding whether tde-systemsettings needs patching, probably not, now that I understand your unique situation. I likely will patch anyway for file name conformance. Additionally, two of the desktop files in tde-systemsettings are the same as those provided in tdebase and they should be like-for-like or renamed to prevent overwriting.
tde-systemsettings does not appear anywhere in the TDE menu. How do Kubuntu users normally access systemsettings?
In Kubuntu (and also now with Trinity) it appears in the menu like you see here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SCIM/Kubuntu?action=AttachFile&do=get&...
KDE3 on Ubuntu always had a few specific differences from vanilla KDE3 for Kubuntu. It seems Tim kept this separation for Trinity.
