Hello!
I propose the next suggestion:
Place on TDE's website in a visible place (eg between Downloads and Screenshots), a list of all distros that have Trinity as desktop environment in its ISOs.
I know 4:
* Exe GNU/Linux ( http://exegnulinux.net ): Debian live CD with graphical installation and only free/libre software by default.
* Porteus ( http://porteus.org ): Slackware based, the Slack's community continuation. It use TDE in the x86 version (KDE4 in the x86_64 version).
* Trinity-Kubuntu ( http://apt.pearsoncomputing.net/cdimages ): Ubuntu remaster with TDE.
* WifiSlax ( http://www.wifislax.com ): Slax / Porteus based with wireless security auditory focus.
Best regards!
Hello everyone,
I just wanted to drop a quick note here saying that I've convinced a
few of my co-workers to switch over to Trinity (using 3.5.13 with
Slavek's repository) and they're very pleased!
Go TDE!

Does anyone have a foolproof way of preventing kdm_greet using
100% CPU in version 4:3.5.13-0debian9+r1261450+pr19~squeeze ?
We have:
# grep -i sak /etc/trinity/kdm/kdmrc
UseSAK=false
but still we see 100% CPU usage on some (but not all) laptops
after power up before login. Laptops are running 30°C hotter
with kdm_greet running 100%, resulting in occasional failures.
TIA,
--Mike Bird
Sorry, my problem is not the wireless connection, but the mobile connection.
I can't activate a mobile USB key on my GPRS or UMTS network, because :
1) nm-applet does not start
2) umtsmon starts, but seems not able to setup the ppp connection (I don't
know why)
Instead, from kde 4 session, all is working, both umtsmon and nm-applet, but -
again -
I can't tell the difference. As a consequence, I have to stick to Plasma
(which I don't like)
If I want to go to the umts net.

This has been a long time coming, but I've finally managed to get the
first set of packages Trinity KDE 3.5.13 packages built for Mandriva
2011.0. You'll find the packages the installation instructions on :
http://www.autotrain.org/mdv-kde/mdv2011.0.html
The initial build is for 64bit (x86_64) systems only, mainly because I
recently upgraded. 32bit packages will follow when I have time to sort
them out, but no promises exactly when.
The above build isn't complete, and there are some problems, so please
read the notes. I will be adding packages as time goes so check
periodically for updates. In particular please pay attention to the change
in the config directory from .kde3 to .trinity.
When I have some time I upload the SPEC files and patches into the
relevant part of git.

Hi.Here is my problem :on Kubuntu Oneiric, I can't run nm-appletbecause I get a conflict between GTK+2 and GTK+3.As a consequence I cannot activate any mobile connectionfrom Trinity. Is there a way to get nm-applet working, or touse a different application for the same purpose ?ThanksD.

This is a great piece of information. For month I was not able to use
* lazarus-ide
* dropbox
* calibre
as a normal user. The only work-arround was using 'sudo NAMEOFAPPLICATION'.
You saved my live! I've googled a lot to know what could be the culprit
without success. Uninstalling kgtk-qt3-trinity brought all back to normal.
What a big step forward!
kgtk-qt3-trinity should not be installed by default. Or there should be a big
warning on the www.trinitydesktop.org page!
Thanks a lot from a now more happy TDE user
