I use a different Debian derivitive, but I think it's 'Focal' (and probably lowercase as well?) not 20.04? Resulting in (snipped so it'd fit on one line): deb http://m...ity-r14.0.x focal main Someone who does Ubuntu, would you add a completed example to the 'Configure the package manager' section on that page? Us ignorant users would appreciate it ;) Best, Michael

TDE-mailing_list-TEMPLATE - testing-002

by William Morder

Just giving the new TDE mailing list template a test run. See attachment for how I have set up headers. If you want to keep your email private, and "reply to" the TDE list instead of your personal email, I believe I have got it right here. Included as a special bonus is one of my jabber/xmpp accounts, for when one of our conversations goes WAY off-topic. Bill jabber/xmpp dr_mojo_contendo(a)hot-chilli.net

Touch screen suddenly stopped working

by BorgLabs - Kate Draven

Ok so, see subject. I'm guessing there might be a hotkey control but I haven't been able to find anything on the web about it. Just the one to shut off the touchpad. Maybe someone else might have better luck searching for a clue. It was working, and very well I might add but it stopped. I did reboot so I'm going to check the startups see if anything of interest shows up there.

Why is Michael such an enthusiastic about MX?

by Michael

tl:dr MX works extremely well, is able to ‘one click’ install TDE, and saves me an incredible amount of time. [1] William Morder asked: > > By the way, Michael, I believe that AntiX is based on MX Linux. I forget > the exact relationship, but that's how I discovered the MX repositories. > > Since you are so enthusiastic about MX Linux with TDE, I wondered if you > knew anything about AntiX, or were more up-to-date on its status, or had an > opinion about it Long story very short… (and probably not entirely accurate) antiX [2] and MEPIS basically combined? to create MX. I don’t know if MEPIS is still around, obviously antiX is ;) - antiX is a very lightweight distribution (works well on very old hardware) - MX is a middleweight (it also has an advanced hardware kernel option) - - {Kate? Maybe try the MX ahs kernel for that touchscreen?} Dolphin Oracle is the lead dev for both distributions. There are ~20+ devs for MX (they all may be active on antiX, but I don’t know that), and based on their forum activity I’m somewhat guessing that many of the MX devs are basically ‘full time’ employed by MX. Truthfully I’d love for TDE to be rolled into the MX group, it seems like such a win-win for both organizations. Why am I such an enthusiastic about MX? - With one click (MX Package Installer): - - Full LAMP stack is installed - - Install LibreOffice, Opera, Wine, VirtualBox, 6 other DEs, 2 Windows Managers, 2 Docks, Skype, Zoom, Kodi, Plex, Handbrake, Spotify, Play on Linux, Steam, 6 other Kernels, 5+ VPNs, 3 Screencasts, … [5] - NVIDIA proprietary drivers works ‘out of the box’ - MX also saved me 50 to 200 hours of customization rebuild over six months by having a ‘preserve /home’ option that works with existing disk encryption. [3] - Their MX Package Installer is completely customizable - - Which allowed me to create an auto-installer for TDE [4] - The MX Tools set is stellar and actually works... - Doesn’t use systemd - The MX forum answers your questions (accurately! and usually the same day) I’ll stop here, put the pom-poms down, and close with: If you want a distribution that runs TDE to ‘just work,’ go with MX. Best, Michael [1] https://mxlinux.org/ [2] https://antixlinux.com/ [3] https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?f=92&t=59308&p=587358#p588697 [4] https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/MX_Linux_Trinity_Repository_Installation_In… [5] There are 380 *.pm files in their packageinstaller-pkglist directory, best guess is that translates to 380 unique applications that they have already customized the install process of so the end user gets a full ‘working’ application.

Which of the Trinity Live disks would be best to install for a new ex-windoze user?

by J Leslie Turriff

My brother, a long-time windoze user, suggested to me last night that he might give Linux a try. Looking at the Trinity website, I see a plethora of Live Disk images for various distros available; but which one is most likely to give him a stable and versatile experience? He is already somewhat skeptical, having seen my occasional struggles with multimedia issues on my OpenSuSE machine*. (This opportunity will also give me some exposure to Debian-based distros, a probable plus.) Leslie * (OpenSuSE does not seem to think that multimedia is important, and its support is somewhat sketchy compared with home-computer oriented distros). --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
