A recent update updated lot of packages on Centos 5. Then next update
try to replace x86_64 libs by i686 libs with lot of unresolved dependencies.
yum check-update gives:
> Obsoleting Packages
> tdelibs.i686 3.5.13-9.el6.opt trinity-3.5.13-el5
> trinity-kdelibs.x86_64 3.5.13-8.el5.opt installed
> tdelibs-devel.i686 3.5.13-9.el6.opt trinity-3.5.13-el5
> trinity-kdelibs-devel.x86_64 3.5.13-8.el5.opt installed
Fortunately, installing tdelibs.x86_64 solves the problem.

Hi
I downloaded ubuntu 11.10 and installed it onto a spare partition.
I then followed the installation outlined on the TDE website
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install kubuntu-default-settings-trinity kubuntu-desktop-trinity
after an hour of downloading kde 3.5.13 apt-get install was doing what it
should have been doing BUT then I got the following error message:
~~~~~~~~~ start ~~~~~~~~
Extracting templates from packages: 100%
Preconfiguring packages ...
dpkg: sudo: dependency problems, but removing anyway as you requested:
ubuntu-minimal depends on sudo.
gksu depends on sudo.

Removing sudo ...
You have asked that the sudo package be removed,
but no root password has been set.
Without sudo, you may not be able to gain administrative privileges.
If you would prefer to access the root account with su(1)
or by logging in directly,
you must set a root password with "sudo passwd".
If you have arranged other means to access the root account,
and you are sure this is what you want,
you may bypass this check by setting an environment variable
(export SUDO_FORCE_REMOVE=yes).
Refusing to remove sudo.

~~~~~~~~~ end ~~~~~~~~
When I logged out and back in again there was no sign of Trinity or kde3 in the
login menu
I presume I am not the first person to have tried to install kde 3.5.13 on
ubuntu 11.10. Can anyone advise me? I presume this isn't a beta version of
kde3.
1. Should the installation script have attempted to remove sudo?
(I'm no expert but that doesn't seem right.)
2. How can I try and start the kde desktop?
3. For future reference, if I had installed Kubuntu 11.10 instead of Ubuntu
would the download of kde 3.5.13 have been any shorter?
Any help would be appreciated (though for the moment I'll stick to my trusted
kubuntu 8.04).
Thanks
Lou
As in, the browser freezes as soon as it sees Flash content.
All was well until I updated the other morning. Versions are currently
Firefox 13.0 and Flash 11.2.202.235 all on Ubuntu natty with Trinity 3.5.13.
Ideas for workarounds? Flash seems to work OK in Chrome, but I really
prefer Firefox.

KWallet did not ask me for my password and the daemon seems not to be running.
Have to enter passwords each time I do something in kmail. not good.
Kopete would be affected if it ran.
Anything I can do about it at the moment?

Greetings
Believe it or not I've only come across a reference to trinity in the last week or so when checking out porteus usb-stick linux.
It really cheered me up that kde3 (as tde) is still not only alive but seemingly very healthy!
At present I am still using kubuntu 8.04 for obvious reasons but would be delighted to install a more up-to-date os and tde
on another partition on my hard drive.
I have already downloaded kubuntu 12.04 (always in the hope, in vain, that it had somehow become more kde3 than kde4!)
but I don't see any mention of (k)ubuntu 12.04 in the installation instruction page, so I presume I should use a release from
last year. Also I notice that ubuntu 11.10 is mentioned rather than kubuntu 11.10. Is it recommended that I use ubuntu 11.10
rather than kubuntu 11.10 in case of conflicts? Or does it matter at all? I also have an iso of xubuntu 11.10 - would that be
suitable?
Any advice would be welcomed.
Thanks
Lou
Hello,
yesterday i installed TDE (nightly builds) on top of Ubuntu 12.04. On login, all i get is a blank desktop with an equally blank xterm, nothing else. Oh yes, the first time i also got this:
"cannot open theme file /opt/trinity/share/apps/kdm/themes/kubunty-trinity"
I linked the tdm folder to the above, but nothing changed, except that the error message disappeared.
Is this the current state of the project for 12.04, or am i doing something wrong?
Thanks,
Mike

NEU: FreePhone 3-fach-Flat mit kostenlosem Smartphone!
Jetzt informieren: http://mobile.1und1.de/?ac=OM.PW.PW003K20328T7073a
New laptop, installed Debian Wheezy AMD64, which is Debians current testing branch
and TDE 3.5.14 from nightly builds., built for Wheezy.
TDE is working well here. Since this is a laptop install I want to usekpowersave.
I get the kpowersave icon in my systray but there is no inormation or options
available when I right click on the icon.
Package info suggests it supports ACPI, APM and PMU, screensaver, DPMS, among
others.
Any info on what apps TDE has available to manage or show laptop specific items
would be appreciated.
Thanks

Using Trinity trunk, finally (switched from KDE 3.5.10, yay!), there is
one definite oddity. I use a program (xplanet) as my desktop background,
and fvwm 2.6.5 with a 3x6 set of viewports.
KDE 3.5.10 respected the program's refresh rate and reran it only when
the requested interval passed, but Trinity is rerunning it whenever the
viewport changes at all, Since I have viewport moves bound to keys and
that can happen a dozen times a second, this is less than ideal. I
thought maybe something in Trinity was looking at the
_NET_DESKTOP_VIEWPORT, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
Does anyone know why this might be happening? (I'm investigating
further, of course.)

Hi Slavek,
I've a small problem which has arisen lately since tracking your updates,
which wasn't in 3.5.12 or 3.5.13. When I do a manual "save session",
then the "saving session" dialogue box never goes away. In fact a
second "save session" dialogue pops up, and they repeatedly take turns
in forcing themselve to the foreground.
This option is only available if you choose "Restore manually saved
session" in kcontrol Session Manager settings so I guess not too many
people may be affected. It's a bit awkward though as it's one option
I do rely on. How can I help debug it further ?

Can't trace crashes. What would I need for, let's say, kopete.
Is there a general approach?
This backtrace appears to be of no use.
This is probably because your packages are built in a way which prevents
creation of proper backtraces, or the stack frame was seriously corrupted in
the crash.
