I believe they have working Trinity packages. OpenSuSE has one (very minor)
bug filed against the KDE3/systemd combination:

Most of what systemd does is likely to be at a level of the system that's lower
than what Trinity needs to concern itself with. systemd/sysv incompatibilities
seem to be mostly at the level of init script syntax, which I don't think we need
to worry about.

Thank you E!
I was hoping that was the case, but didn't know how the details would work.
The only one that caused me concern was tdm. I guess as long as it can get
called from inittab or some systemd.service, then tdm really won't care -- just
as long as something calls it :)
