David, there's a tiny small bug in exegnulinux_3.3_preview4.iso : When installing on a harddisk and activating session management ("restore previous session") then this entry ~/.trinity/Autostart/kmix.desktop causes kmix to start twice after the first session, which pops up the mixer dialog, which is a bit anoying. Otherwise, good work, I have not found an other issue :-) Nik -- Mag. Dr. Nikolaus Klepp Einnehmerstraße 14 A-4810 Gmunden Tel.: +43 650 82 11 724 email: office(a)klepp.biz

Fedora 17 LiveCD for TDE 3.5.13

by Francois Andriot

Hello, I've finally built a LiveCD including TDE 3.5.13 (+ updates) based on Fedora 17. The previous LiveCD was based on Fedora 16. The CD allows to run TDE directly, but can also install Fedora on the hard disk. Both i686 and x86_64 versions are available.

Kmail-trinity account setup problem

by Glen Cunningham

G'day List, I'm sure that this has been asked on the list before, but my search-foo is low and I can't find it in the list archives. So here goes ... Trying to setup an account in Kmail-trinity, aptitude show kmail-trinity identifies it as Version: 4:3.5.13-0debian9+r1258263+pr10~squeeze if that helps. Anyway, when I get to <Configure - Kmail>, <Accounts>, <Add> the "Add Account - Kmail" window is too big and the OK/Save box is hidden below the bottom of the screen so nothing that I enter is saved. Moving the panel out of the way does not help on this netbook with 1024x600 resolution and all attempts to resize the window fail. What is the fix/work-around, please? Ta, Glen (stuck in GOF mode)

Basically I don't want to be an escrow service. ;-) I don't know what the legal ramifications would be were I to provide such services. I prefer that interested parties group together to collect the funds on their own, then post the bounty in one large chunk. > What happens if we only get as far as getting the library released?

Well, it depends. :-) The library is actually quite powerful in and of itself, but obviously there is no GUI associated with it. > Is it worth contacting a larger group using KDE3/Trinity software (any corporation, maybe even the group from munich may be interested? Yes! If you know of potentially interested parties please send them a link to the provided information. If you have any further questions, including detailed questions about the software, don't hesitate to ask! Tim

How to use Serghei's overlay?

by Tony Rein

Hello to all. I've found this overlay: https://github.com/serghei/gentoo-trinity-overlay How do I use it within Gentoo? I've installed layman and of course "layman -L" doesn't show it. Can anyone tell me how to make its ebuilds visible? I've also tried downloading from this link: https://github.com/serghei/gentoo-trinity-overlay/zipball/master and making a local overlay, but that didn't work -- only kde4 packages showed up in emerge --search. It's possible I have something masked, but I'd think if I had the overlay set up correctly, that they would show up in the search, just marked as uninstallable. I don't need the whole TDE desktop -- I only want to get kpdf and gwenview working. Thanks in advance for any suggestions or explanations. Tony

is there a version of trinity that acually works

by Lou Gogan

Hi folks I was delighted when I heard about trinity as I still use kubuntu 8.04 and will never, until death or even beyond, use kde4 or any other developer ego-driven user-unfriendly DE. I followed the instructions on the installation page: http://trinitydesktop.org/installation.php ubuntu section, and after installing ubuntu 11.10 on a spare partition, I entered the commands as instructed. Firstly, there was the known problem with the sudo command which the developers have decided to keep a secret and not edit the installation instructions to add 3 lines of text to help the user. But I was pointed to the bug page and followed the instructions there. I was able to download and start trinity (v3.5.13) and as soon as I clicked on the main menu button the system crashed and the whole panel disappeared leaving a totally blank desktop. Here is here I get really confused. I did have a look at the known bugs and this seems to be a know 'solved'? bug - I think. What is the point in having incorrect instructions to download and install a desktop which doesn't work? If someone said it was a joke created by the kde4 team it would make some sense, they would be getting a laugh at someone who was looking for a real desktop which had the end user in mind, but if this is a genuine 'alternative' then I am at a loss as to why there is any talk of trinity desktop at all. I do understand that the developers are busy working on R14 - the NEXT GREATEST THING - with the WOW factor!!!! (you remember the WOW factor?) but what is the point if the previous version doesn't work? 8:( This seems to be exactly the same attitude towards the end user as the other DE developers, or am I wrong? 8^} Is there a different installation page with instructions of how to obtain a working version of trinity? Is there a working version? Please tell me that I am wrong about everything and there is a simple explanation for all this. AND there is a working version! - hidden somewhere! Or are you the kde4 team having a laugh? !! Thanks Lou

Problem using sudo in exegnulinux_3.3_preview4

by Robert Peters

Hello, For me also, exegnulinux_3.3_preview4.iso works in live mode and installs fine. During installation I told it to not disable sudo. It asked for a user password and a root password. But now, when I try to run an admin app, such as adjust date & time, a KDE su dialog appears but doesn't accept my password. Also, when I enter a terminal sudo command, it fails saying that I am not in the sudoers file. Is there a way to correct this? Should I reinstall with the option to disable sudo? thx - Robert
