I have released porteus-v1.2rc1 so should start getting some reports from
users in everyday life now. One thing i noticed with the pretty stuff was
that the ksplash-engine-moodin was that it shows up in the kcontrol, but an
error message 'This theme requires the plugin Moodin' is received and the
splash will not preview. Others give the message that the plugin: default
is required. This is also true for the 'fingerprint' splash by Tim.
twin-crystal-theme just doesn't show up in the themes at all.
Can someone please confirm this from a running Trinity desktop. If it is
just me then i will start digging.

Seems this problem exists for me without the ksplash-moodin engine
installed. I will recompile tdelibs and base and see whatsup.

Moodin is a separate thing altogether so it has to be installed separately in order to use
some of the splashes. I don't know about the default plugin thing though.

Yes, it is in the applications folder and builds no problem. I have since
found (after rebuilding everything again) that the themes are broken for
me. All themes.
If i run: kcmshell ksplashthememgr
I get the error message that the plugin:Default is not installed. The error
in the konsole says that the library could not be loaded. All libraries are
in place. The same error appears for any theme, stating that the plugin for
the theme could not be loaded. It was working fine a few weeks ago.
Not sure why, or how yet.

Are you building under qt3 instead of tqt3? If so I think I know what the
problem is, but don't yet have a way to fix it.
Many TDE .desktop files contain a type string, e.g. TQString, that allows
the plugin loader to know how to interpret library paths, etc. via the
TQVariant class. These were recently renamed to fix loading under tqt3,
but I am fairly certain this broke loading under qt3.
The easiest fix is to modify qt3, but I am very hesitant to do that...

Yep, that sounds like the problem. No problem, i would imagine you would
prefer to leave qt3 to the side and develop tqt3 instead and i am happy to
wait.
Tomorrow i will rebuild under tqt3 and see how she goes.
Thanks.
