Hi!
I don't know if you really need to use TDM, but as I had issues at some points with TDM on my PCLOS remaster, I installed GDM (Gnome display manager) and it worked right as it should and makes no difference once Trinity is started.
Even if it's not what you want at first, it might be a good way to troubleshoot if the rest of Trinity has installed as it should.

Have a nice day!
