Hi,
I'd like to run trinity parts, at least kpdf, on a machine where I
have no admin privileges (it is a Debian Squeeze and runs gnome2). So
far, I've:
1. downloaded the following packages:
kpdf-trinity_3.5.13-0debian9+r1258283+pr3~squeeze_amd64.deb
kdelibs4c2a-trinity_3.5.13-0debian9+r1261449+pr12~squeeze_amd64.deb
libtqtinterface_3.5.13-0debian9+r1258011+pr2~squeeze_amd64.deb
libqt3-mt_3.3.8d-0ubuntu0+sr73+pr181~squeeze_amd64.deb
2. extracted them using =dpkg-deb -x=: this creates ./usr,
./opt/trinity, etc.
3. tryed to run kpdf:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$(find opt/trinity/lib usr/lib -type d | xargs echo |
sed "s; ;:;g") opt/trinity/bin/kpdf
this sets
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=opt/trinity/lib:opt/trinity/lib/mime:opt/trinity/lib/mime/packages:opt/trinity/lib/trinity:\
opt/trinity/lib/trinity/plugins:opt/trinity/lib/trinity/plugins/styles:\
opt/trinity/lib/trinity/plugins/designer:usr/lib:usr/lib/pkgconfig:\
usr/lib/qt3:usr/lib/qt3/plugins:usr/lib/qt3/plugins/inputmethods:\
usr/lib/qt3/plugins/imageformats
In the end, kpdf is running but:
1. I throws many errors a start time:
1. complains about dcop server being absent: can I skip this? I
found nothing relevant in the kpdf man page
2. could not find mime type "application octet-stream", seems to
be related to
3. then says "no mime types installed"
2. file and edit menus have "No text!" names. I guess I can figure
out why because kpdf is missing its files (i.e., there's no
/opt/trinity/share/apps/kpdfpart/part.rc et al. in the kpdf
scope), but I don't know how to fix it. Note that I copied
~/.trinity/share/apps/kpdfpart/part.rc.
I'd be glad if someone has the willing to help me polishing this! I
really miss kpdf at work!
Thank you,
Nicolas
PS: Would it be possible to install and run parts of trinity from a
fakeroot env?
Hi All,
Can someone tell me how to check, from TDE, if there are new packages
available for updating (especially XWindows)? I only see the
hermetic "kpackage" in my installation.
Should I go in gnome to check-update packages?
thank you
Hi All,
If I lauch GE from a Konsol, it gives:
/opt/google/earth/free/google-earth: ./googleearth-bin: /lib/ld-lsb.so.3:
bad ELF interpreter: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type
During some previous installation tryes, I sow that the problem was
coming from a library requested by a component of Trinity. Can someone tell
me, please, how to do to be able to run Google Earth, while using TDE as
windows manager?
Thank you
Patrick
Hi All,
I think that there is a problem while expanding sélection of files in
Konqueror. Ctrl+"left"click add the clicked file, Shift+"left"click expends
the sélection with all the files between the previously clicked file to the
clicked file.
It should work like in the mails section of the main KMail window,
should'nt it? So, is it settable feature or a bug?
Thank you
Patrick
Hi All,
Can someone tell me how to install the necessary files for khelpcenter
to give help locally, at least on the softwares installed (would be nice),
please?
Thank you,
Patrick
Hi all,
I post a lot of requests for assistance on this list, but got few
answers. A developer can tell if the observations at the origin of requests
(possible bugs), ot the questions themself are followed by effects within
the TDE team or other groups of developers?
In other words: is it useful if I waste my time sending smoke signals
on this list???

How dreamer I am! In 199x, I dreamed that the beginning of the end of
Windows would be in 2000, replaced by Linux. But maybe next year... :-)
My recent experiences show me that Linux is far from convincing the
current Windows users to join. TDE is (for me) the best desktop
alternative, but there are so many installation problems!

You may be interested to know that Linux Format magazine January 2013 issue
(number 166) has a (generally) very positive review of Trinity compared to
four other desktops. Finishes with:
" a note-perfect reimplementation of KDE 3 ... full of features ...looks
good ... tons of software ... . If you don't think you like KDE, try Trinity
and there's a good chance it will change your mind."
cheers
