Debian GNU/kFreeBSD seems to be abbandonware. "Debian GNU/kFreeBSD is a discontinued GNU variant released by the Debian project." Trinity GNU/TFreeBSD, sounds interesting to me. :)

Actually TDE on FreeBSD works quite nice :-)
There are ony 2 things I have not working right now: - Shutting down the computer from TDE logout - but that's a feature I never use, I configured every notebook to shut down on lid close. - storage media are not mounted correctly via HAL. This may or may not be a problem of my configuration, as I have "automount" installed for handling my storage media, but I think I have to look at the code and figure out what goes wrong (I'll post what goes wrong later - when I understand what actually happens).

Hi Nik, It's been a longtime since installing freebsd, at that time I installed a few different bsd's, after your post I started reading release notes and comparing other bsd's and it looks like freebsd is the way to go when the time comes that I stop testing debian/devuan and settle on a single distro, at that time ease of installation will not be a factor as it is now, also Slackware is another option to consider.
Thank you,

Some people have made packages and/or build scripts for Slackware over time, here are those I've been aware of:

Currently, Ray Vine seems to be the most active on TDE for Slackware. Formerly Thorn Inurcide, but his account disappeared from Github.
That's why I made a mirror of Ray-V repository.

I found out today that Microsoft has had a account on gethub for the last 4 years, about the time neo-linux was born.
Slavek what you are doing is good thinking.
Thank you,

I'm pretty busy but wanted to reply.
I will do a install when I have time and the mood strikes me as I would like to see TDE on a slack desktop.
What I would really like to see is slack ported to debian, because I have disability's that interfere with my keyboarding. With one person or more porting and my testing, if it is possible, I don't think it would take long. I should talk to Patrick about this. Patrick is a friend who has personally installed slack on one of my laptops, we have not talked for a long while and I need to see if we are, as the saying goes, on the same page.
Thank you Gregory for your post.
