Sorry for the late reply, installinmg OpenSUSE 13.1 with trinity prove
very challenging.
Your suggest worked but I decide to reinstall a mimimum x session then
put trinity on, as from the past
that soem times the newly install desktop might not become default
even you choose it, unless you manually
edit it in the proper section in /etc/sysconfig
I think I can help you with Ctrl-Alt-Del problem, as I discover you
have to hit the other del key in the In-Del-Home-End-Pgup-PgDn block
on your keyboard to get it to work.
I have to comment on the lack of polish when Trinity 3.5.13-sru is
installed, I mean it all worked but when using Yast
to install applications, it got put into the proper top level menu,
but there is no sub menus like in KDE 3. So of you install a lot of
applicatons, it all ended up in a large almost unmanagable mess.
Should one regard Trinity 3.5.13-as not getting any attention at all
with all effort focus on R 14 series ?
I got no Trinity 3.5.13-sru desktop in OpenSUSE
13.1 after install.
I choose OpenSUSE 13.1 because it is to a
Evergeen OpenSUSE with
extended support.
I followed the instruction in
https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/OpenSUSEInstall
even edit file
"/etc/sysconfig/displaymanager" and set DISPLAYMANAGER="tdm"
Above matches my 13.1.
And althought I got triinity login manager
the desktop that started reveral to Lxde, the
other desktop I installed.
From the login manager one must select the session type TDE if it isn't the
default or last used.
I tried to edit
"/etc/sysconfig/windowmanager" and set
WINDOWMANAGER="Twin" or "KDE", "tde" or even
WINDOWMANAGER="/opt/trinity/bin/startkdm"
it seems to be still hardcoded as described in
Any one have suggestion on making trinity start
after login?
WINDOWMANAGER is not valid in /etc/sysconfig/windowmanager AFAIK.
DEFAULT_WM="tde"
Above works for my 13.1 on host gx28c, but it is using trinity-tdm-14.0.0-1,
not 3.5.13.
On my 13.1 host big41 with 3.5.13.2-3, those settings strings are the same,
but instead of a greeter I get a mini window that tells me I need to
Ctrl-Alt-Del to begin that ignores Ctrl-Alt-Del, so I have to login on a vtty
and use startx to start TDE. --
