As I have seen it, KDE4 and Trinity are not the

Debian. I'd suggest you get rid of KDE4 first, then start again with
trinity.
I wasn't aware that there are separate KDE4 and Trinity versions of the KDE
applications. I've installed Amarok-Trinity now, and it works perfectly,
just as it used to before I had to reinstall my Debian system, when I was
still using KDE 3.5.10.
They are very different!!! How would they _not_ have separate applications?
(It's a pity that Amarok-KDE4 won't run with
Trinity, because it's amazing!
For instance, it will automagically download the lyrics of the song you're
listening, and display it... This works about half the time, even for my
non- mainstream taste in music...)
Amarok 1.4.10, running on KDE 3.5.10, does this. I haven't tried the Trinity
one yet, but I would expect it to be the same.
KMail-KDE4 almost works. It crashes when it is
restarted by the session
manager, but otherwise... Guess I should play it safe, and go to KMail-
Trinity.
The mess with all the bugs I've encountered, seems to come from the KDE4
applications which are run under Trinity.
That has certainly been other people's experience, judging by this list.
The neat inclusion of the KDE4 apps in Trinitiy's
menus gives the
impression that the integration is meant to work fine; at least that's the
impression it gave to me.
Do a little reading before installing?
Perhaps the KDE4 applications should be placed in a
separate menu
hierarchy, or some warning message should tell the user that it's unsafe,
when using KDE4 apps in Trinity.
There have been a lot of warnings on this list.
