I have been asked by a blind friend how friendly TDE is to the totally blind,
and whether there is a screen reader. He could of course install Orca on
TDE, but Orca pulls in a lot of Gnome.
Comments please. I said that I would ask on the list.

Hello !
I plan to begin to use TDE as my main (and only) DE when the R14 will
be in stable version. Are we many people to use TDE on CentOS ? Maybe
i'm one of the few french user of TDE on CentOS.
I want to thanks Timothy and the team for the job you're doing !
I really want to try the next version with all modifications and the
new TDE network manager =)
In the hope to help you on the bug tracker ;) See you !
Nicolas.
Hi all
Will the trinity-project provide packages for the new OpenSuSE release?
It seems that KDE 3.5 will be no more available.

Hello
Here is the short question:
Did anybody successfully compile a kernel >= 3.7, within trinity and got
the wifi to work for the machines mentioned above??
----------------------------------------------------------------
Rationale and longer story.
I am running a X60 and an X200, both with trinity/Kubuntu 10.04 (I know it is
outdated but I have my reasons) and wifi works without any problems.
I replaced in both machines my HHD with a SSD and reinstalled Kubuntu
10.04 again, using the jfs file system. I am very pleased with the
results.
However after the installation I found out that on the long time run I
should use trim, which was not supported for jfs in the 2.6.32-37
kernel. I could upgrade the kernel via the backport releases but these
backport releases did not include the kernel 3.7, which was the first
kernel to support TRIM for jfs. So I should reinstall Kubuntu using
either ext4 or xfs or compile a new kernel.
So, I downloaded the 3.7.0 kernel on my X200 and run set of
commands which I have attached belows.
Now the relevant wifi intel driver 3945 for the X60s
and the PRO/Wireless 5100 for the X200s seem to be compiled.
However when I boot the new kernel and run the
ifconfig command there is only the wired card detected but no
wlan0 or eth0 device is found.
I am puzzled: if I boot the 2.6.32-37 kernel I have wifi support but not
with the 3.7 kernel.
What should I do?
I can run sudo ifconfig wlan0 up, but knetworkmanager and wicd do not
find the wireless card.
Any help is strongly appreciated
Thanks
Uwe Brauer
I made lsmod on my X60 machine once with the new 3.7 kernel once with my
old 2.6.32 kernel. The difference is huge in my X60 machine
one line is particular interesting, namely
iwlcore 106661 1 iwl3945
this line is missing for the lsmod for the 3.7.0 kernel indeed this
module does not exist. What do I miss.
I don't hope I have to recompile the kernel?
Can somebody help me how to get the module loaded
thanks
Uwe Brauer
Commands used to compile the kernel:
sudo make menuconfig
sudo make
sudo make modules
sudo make modules_install
make INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1 modules_install
sudo make install
sudo update-initramfs -u -k 3.7.0
cd /boot/grup
sudo cp grub.cfg grub-org.cfg
su
grub-mkconfig > /boot/grub/grub.cfg
sudo update-grub

Odd. I have no idea why those packages would be conflicting with one
another.
Glad you have a workaround!

Hi there.
I followed the instructions regarding nightly builds:
$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/trinity.list
# Trinity nightly builds

After reloading I select desktop-base-trinity [OK] and tde-trinity [FAIL]
Could not mark all packages for installation or upgrade

Hi
I tried to install qt3-dev-tools in order to try to run
make xconfig
for compiling a new kernel.
The installation failed.
apt-get install -f was recommended, but also failed with the following
message
Unpacking libdrm-dev (from .../libdrm-dev_2.4.18-1ubuntu3_i386.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/libdrm-dev_2.4.18-1ubuntu3_i386.deb (--unpack):
trying to overwrite '/usr/include/drm/nouveau_drm.h', which is also in package linux-libc-dev 0:3.7.0-2
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/libdrm-dev_2.4.18-1ubuntu3_i386.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Now all my packages are broken and I can't install anything.
This never happened. Any ideas?

Hi !
I'm running trinity desktop on Debian Testing linux.
Sometimes all the icons from desktop disappear and (at the same time!)
the desktop lock button (blue lock symbol in the kicker panel) stops
to work.
What service/program to I have to restart in order to fix it without
logging out and in again?
Cheers
