Upgrade of TDE DVD 14.04 to 16.04 -- FAIL
by Jonesy 01 Aug '16

01 Aug '16

I've just installed the Trinity LiveCD tde-ubuntu-14.04-desktop-r14.0.3-amd64.iso and performed all the updates. I commented out the entries in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/libreoffice-trinity.list -and- /etc/apt/sources.list.d/trinity.list and did a sudo do-release-upgrade to upgrade to xenial (16.04) and received the following: |Checking package manager |Reading package lists... Done |Building dependency tree |Reading state information... Done |Building data structures... Done | |Calculating the changes| | |Calculating the changes | |Could not calculate the upgrade | |An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade. | |This can be caused by: |* Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu |* Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu |* Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu | |If none of this applies, then please report this bug using the |command 'ubuntu-bug ubuntu-release-upgrader-core' in a terminal. | |Restoring original system state | |Aborting I don't see how any of the "This can be caused by" pertain.

There is some forecast of getting rid of autotools?
by Anderson Torres 31 Jul '16

Hello, guys! I want to know if there is some forecast on getting rid of autotools and using only cmake, mainly because I want to port trinity to NixOS, and it would be easier taht way. Thanks in advance! Torres

enigmail (GPG) with kmail-trinity
by andre_debian＠numericable.fr 30 Jul '16

Does anyone has succeeded to install "enigmail" with kmail-trinity, or an application similar to enigmail ? The objective is to use GPG keys in kmail-trinity. enigmail works with thunderbird, icedove (Debian), but not sure with kmail-trinity. Have a nice day. André

And what about installing the Ubuntu 14.04 Trinity live CD first and then apt-get dist-upgrade? This would upgrade Ubuntu to 16.04 with minimal risk. I did this to go from 12.04 to 14.04 without any glitch. Just a hint from my own (successful) experience.

Re: "Could not find mime type application/octet-stream"
by Pavle 30 Jul '16

Hi, I use Trinity on Arch Linux. I didn't use a display manager, but rather started Trinity and I3 through .xinitrc script (I don't know if it is relevant). After installing Trinity, some of GTK apps (Midori, dwb) failed to start in I3, with similar message: "Could not find mime type application/octet-stream" and segfaut. Didn't test in Trinity. First quick fix was to set an environment variable GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR=/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas but some other apps (SpaceFM) still segfaulted after many error messages. Then I disabled /etc/profile.d/trinity.sh and started it only when starting Trinity, which solved my problem.

LiveCD for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
by Marvin Jones 30 Jul '16

30 Jul '16

I am building a new workstation and I really, Really, REALLY want to fire it up with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with Trinity R14.0.3. Ref: https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/LiveCDs , has anyone built a Live CD for Xenial yet? Or, is a Live CD under construction? Or, has anyone installed installed TDE 14.0.3 on Ubuntu 16.04 yet and could/would share their experiences if I run into "challenges" during a raw install? I don't believe I've seen any chatter about Ubuntu 16.04 on this list. And, I really do not want to start out 2-years old with Ubuntu 14.04. "Inertia" usually prevents me from upgrading releases once I have a solid linux workstaion humming along. Hell, my primary workstation is $ cat /etc/lsb-release DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=10.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=lucid DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS" ... with TDE 3.5.13.3 Thanks for reading this, and thanks for TDE!!

"Could not find mime type application/octet-stream"
by Curt Howland 27 Jul '16

27 Jul '16

Hi. I seem to have messed up the file associations list. I went into Trinity Control Center to add .webm as a video file type, and somehow deleted something so that now I'm getting "Could not find mime type application/octet-stream" errors every time I drop a file onto the desktop. Maybe I could recreate the entry, or copy the default file associations list back over my user .trinity list? I don't want to have to reinstall everything just to clear a "Sorry" pop-up.

Ktorrent not showing peers' Country
by Dan Youngquist 26 Jul '16

26 Jul '16

Ktorrent's Country column isn't working, it just shows N/A for every peer. Any ideas why? This is a Debian Jessie system with TDE 14.0.4 from Slavek's repo, updated this morning. Thanks. -- PGP key: http://homestead-products.com/pubkey.htm

[trinity-users] TDE session won't start in buntu 16.04
by Felix Miata 25 Jul '16

25 Jul '16

On attempt to start session either via TDM greeter or startx, popup message reports: "There was an error setting up inter-process communications for TDE. The message returned by the system was: Could not read network connection list. /home/username/.DCOPserver_hostname_0 Please check that the "dcopserver" program is running!" Then on dismissing that popup, another reports: "Could not start tdeinit. Check your installation." So, check how? What's supposed to start dcopserver? Is the "cannot open" message in .xsession-errors saying that some dependency is broken? I see mention of libbfd there, but 2.26.1-system.so (not libbfd-2.26-system.so) does exist in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/. Do others have 14.0.3 running OK on 16.04? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg.
