Ok. So I managed to compile trinity on my gentoo. But I have some very serious issues that prevent me from using it.
1). kdm don't recognize my password. every time I try to log-in it gives me "Login failed" message. I am sure the password I type is the correct one. And to be hones I don't know what could be causing this. Anyway here is kdm.log: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/474009/ Not that it contain many, but always... 2). nor kdm, nor gdm see trinity session. The /etc/X11/Sessions/trinity file does not exist, like it does for Gnome/whathever. How can I fix that? Use the startkde script form kdebase?

Hello,
on RHEL6, to allow KDM to "see" the KDE3/TDE session type, I have to copy the file: /opt/trinity/share/apps/kdm/sessions/kde.desktop to the directory where DM sessions are located, in my case: /usr/share/xsessions/
I supposo that you must to the same on Gentoo (except that your DM session directory is different).
Also, to run trinity without any DM, from a text virtual terminal, you can try, for example, the following command: xinit /opt/trinity/bin/startkde -- :1
This can help you to diagnose TDE session startup problem.

hooray!! I did what You wrote and now trinity is seen in the sessions menu. Right now remains only a problem with kdm.
