problem with clean purge and reinstall ksmserver-trinity
by Uwe Brauer 14 Dec '12

14 Dec '12

Hello as I wrote some time ago, I have a problem concerning the user managment in trinity. So finally I came to the conclusion that I have to purge the trinity installation completly and restart a fresh installation afterwards.. Howeven when running sudo apt-get purge name-of-trinity-pkg I obtain Removing ksmserver-trinity ... No diversion `any diversion of /usr/bin/plasma', none removed Removing `local diversion of /usr/bin/plasma-desktop to /usr/bin/plasma-desktop.kde4' dpkg-divert: rename involves overwriting `/usr/bin/plasma-desktop' with different file `/usr/bin/plasma-desktop.kde4', not allowed dpkg: error processing ksmserver-trinity (--remove): subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 2 Errors were encountered while processing: ksmserver-trinity E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) What can I do? thanks Uwe Brauer

Fedora 17 or TDE bug repport
by Patrick Serru 14 Dec '12

14 Dec '12

Hi All, Fedora 17 + TDE user. I created the file /etc/sysconfig/desktop, with the line: DISPLAYMANAGER=/opt/trinity/bin/kdm The login window was represented 800x600 pixels (or less) and once completed, it is Gnome that was executed with the correct screen resolution (1280x1024). Whereas without this line, I have the choice between Gnome and Tde. Once in Tde, TDE seems to function almost normally. Cheers Patrick --- fr ------------------------- Utilisateur Fedora 17 + TDE. J'ai créé le fichier /etc/sysconfig/desktop, comportant la ligne: DISPLAYMANAGER=/opt/trinity/bin/kdm La fenêtre de login était représentée en 800x600 pixels (ou moins) et une fois complété, c'est Gnome qui a été exécuté avec la bonne définition d'écran (1280x1024). Alors que sans cette ligne, j'ai le choix entre Gnome et Tde. On fois Tde démarré, TDE semble fonctionner presque normalement.

themes broken?
by David Emerson 13 Dec '12

13 Dec '12

I just upgraded kdm-trinity from: 3.5.13-0debian9+r1261450+pr19~squeeze to: 3.5.13-1debian0+ax3~squeeze and also, kdmtheme-trinity from: 3.5.13-0debian9+r1248408+pr1~squeeze to: 3.5.13-1debian0+ax1~squeeze And now themes do not seem to be working at all. I also noticed that the rather long and profusely commented /etc/trinity/kdm/kdmrc was overwritten by kcontrol in admin mode when changing themes Any suggestions for making themes work again? Thanks! David

TDE website update
by Alexandre Couture 13 Dec '12

13 Dec '12

Hello everyone, If someone here have some time for it, it would be nice if the TDE packages repo of François Andriot could be added to the front page of the website. These packages are perfectly stable. Also, I can resend back the screenshots of my PCLOS TDE remaster in a less compressed way so that they could be added to the screenshot section of the site, if it is considered good enough quality for that. These screenshots can be seen in the November page of this mailing list. If my PCLinuxOS TDE non-official remaster is considered good enough to be a day-to-day system, as I use it, then it might be good for the Trinity Desktop Environment project to have a link for it (and the Fedora CD too) when you click on the ''Try a liveCD today'' link on the website. The Fedora CD is great, but is is more a LiveCD to try TDE than a fully-fledged desktop system. Thank you! -Alexandre

Migrating colour scheme from KDE 3.5.10 to TDE 3.5.13.1
by Ken Heard 11 Dec '12

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Is it possible to migrate my basic desktop colour scheme from KDE 3.5.10 to TDE 3.5.13.1. If I cannot then I would have to enter them manually in the Control Centre. If I can where are my user colour schemes stored in both versions?

Migrating from openSUSE KDE3 to TDE
by Leslie Turriff 09 Dec '12

09 Dec '12

Hi, I'm currently running KDE3 in openSUSE 12.2, but I'm considering converting to TDE. The instructions on your download page don't say anything about migration considerations. Will the configuration information in my .kde directory be used by TDE after the conversion, and if not, is there a procedure for importing that data into TDE? Thanks, Leslie

Re: [trinity-users] TDE on Arch - kicker config window empty and no Shutdown option.

That might explain a few things. I didn't realise AUR was so out of date. I took all the instructions from the wiki.. but there is normally a note to say when something is out of date. I may look at building it from source if I thought it would all work ok at the end :)

TDE on Arch - kicker config window empty and no Shutdown option.
by John Watson 08 Dec '12

08 Dec '12

Hello all. This is my first post on the list. Can I start by saying I have only just heard of TDE and I am very happy. For me this DE is one the best today. But one or two issues are stopping me from switching to it permanently. My first problem is this: When I right-click on kicker panel and select Configure Panel, in the new window that opens I only see options for configuring Taskbar (in the left column). Nothing for Appearance or kicker position on the screen. Can anyone help? My second problem is: I do not see any option in the menu for Shutdown, Suspend or Hibernate. I only see Logout. I have enabled the options in kcontrol. Sorry if this post lacks detail but I am sending it from Cinnamon Desktop, so I can't be more detailed. Thanks to all those involved in developing this DE!

Timeout for "mirror.ntmm.org"
by Patrick Serru 06 Dec '12

06 Dec '12

Hi All, Finaly, Fedora 17 looks good to me, now, with selinux disabled (-: for the moment!), my graphic card & screen are all OK. Aside from the fact that my keyboard is not considered as Spanish by Gnome (very nice for the login!). I installed until TDE, the command: # cd /etc/yum.repos.d ; wget http://ppa2.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/… was OK. But # yum install trinity-desktop Modules complémentaires chargés : langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit trinity-3.5.13 | 2.7 kB 00:00 Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/rpm/f17/trinity-… error was 12: Timeout on http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/rpm/f17/trinity-…: (28, '') Erreur : Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: trinity-3.5.13-noarch Does it only mean that I should try later? Can someone tell me, please, if once installed TDE, a simple: # cp .kde/* .trinity will be enougth to translate my kde3.5.12 settings to TDE? Thanks. Patrick
