Klaus Cook scripsit:
Not on Ubuntu, debian stretch.
I am 80 years old and retired after a career in
Systems programming
and consulting, but I am a complete novice when it comes to Linux.
I have decided to try Ubuntu 20.04 and as part of the learning
process I decided to install the Trinity Desktop Environment.
After struggling through the installation I finally was able to get
the installation to run without errors, however, the Desktop does
not activate when logging into Ubuntu. Also, Trinity is not listed
in the "sessions" list on the log in page.
1. Is there anyway to check if the installation was completed
correctly?
2. How do I activate the desktop if the installation was correct?
Thank you,

May I point you to exegnulinux? It comes with TDE, has no GTK stuff
(which makes live easier) and has no systemd (equiv. of M$ svchost):

If you want to stay with ubuntu: Install tdm-trinity, uninstall all
other login managers (slim, gdm ...), and try again.
