Has anyone successfully installed the Trinity Desktop in Debian Testing?
I managed to follow the wiki directions for Debian 7.1.0 without any
glitches, however there are no /etc/apt/sources.list entries for Jessie.
Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Hi All,
I assume that any desktop manager, such as GDM for example, can be used
with TDE, instead of trinity-kdm?
The reason I ask is I'm having problems getting xming working from a
Win7 pc (just getting blank, black screen) and I always found gdm more
user friendly.
Cheers,
Mike.

Hi, I Installed Trinity using the instructions at
http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Documentation/OpenSUSEBinaryIns…
but
it does not work out of the box this way.
I'm hoping someone with write privileges can add these steps to the wiki
In /etc/profile:
Change the lines pointing to /opt/kde3 to /opt/trinity so the binaries will
be in the PATH
In /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager:
Change DISPLAYMANAGER to say DISPLAYMANAGER=/opt/trinity/bin/kdm
using just kdm doesn't work, even with PATH set correctly.
Also, openSUSE 11.4 repository is broken, there were some dependency issues
with the trinity-desktop package. I'll look into that again later.
Thank you!
this comes up on any automake builds. Too new.
root [ /sources/kde/ktorrent-trinity-3.5.13.2/build ]# make -f
../admin/Makefile.common
*** YOU'RE USING automake (GNU automake) 1.14.
*** TDE requires automake 1.6.1 or newer

After a plug on the Debian mailing list I got the following reply (which many
of you may already have seen):

Alas, Trinity's Debian repo does not appear to work for Jessie.

I'm sure that some of you must be running Jessie - or are we all waiting for
14 to bed in on Wheezy, Stable, first?

Hi List,
the newly installed Trinity shwes me a alt+ctrl+del before the login.
Really? a windows-alike?
Please:
1) How to deactivate (kinda silly on a single notebook)
2) use! another! key! combination!

Ok its been awhile since Ive used KDE 3.. how do we install apps?
I installed MUON but it tried to download like KDE 4 it looked like it installed alot of KDE 4 resources.
I have synaptic installed now.. Not profecient with it I am use to a graphical interface but learning.
also how do we update the OS? I tried typing in ADEPT not found.. I looked though the menus in classic mode and I dont see an updater???
I installed TDE though a CD instead of a sudo apt-get method.

I cannot figure out how to install flash...
I tried sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras it says
E: doesnt exist.
I went to adobe.com and firefox goes to a page cant be displayed because there is no APT installed.
Thanks,
