I installed and used almost normally kubuntu
10.10-trinity-enterprise
(downloaded 26/08/2011). Someone on this list could tell me if after
re-installing this kubuntu 10.10, I could upgrade TDE to 3.5.13 and / or
even to kubuntu 12.10? This would suit me perfectly, finally!
I doubt anyone could predict viability of any particular DE over another. If
you can get any DE to work in X, then TDE should be no problem if there is a
version published for that release.
If you want to know if you should expect 12.10 to work, boot its live media
and see what happens. If it works, then a 12.10 installation should work too.
As for getting from 10.10 to 12.10, be sure to follow the published
instructions. Normally an upgrade to each intermediate version is the only
way to expect to avoid a mess, and X certainly might break along the way. A
clean install might be easier, especially if you already have /home on a
separate filesystem.
Otherwise, would you suggest me to subscribe to
an XWindow helping
list, if any?
The Trinity list is short of ideal for discussing generic X trouble like
yours. Instead, try either http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg or
whatever list may be dedicated to X on your distro of choice.
