First of all, thanks for your answers. However, I saw mostly
installation of yours were Minimal X + Trinity or you installed OpenSUSE
with default desktop (KDE 4) then installed Trinity. Also, I think
minimal installation without X causes some permission problems or
something else to prevent opening kdm. Hence, when you did a minimal X
installation, your system has tones of unnecessary packages like some
ncurses applications of yast and with dependencies, bootsplash etc etc
(for me of course).
I've not yet tried TDE on OS, but will once
I've found instructions to get
it
using zypper. My usual OS installation method is from minimal X to KDE3 via
zypper.
Here are the instructions I found (and used) to install via zypper
(although I did a standard install with KDE 4 as I may wish to run
some KDE apps, even if I don't like the desktop):
1. Configure the supplementary PACKMAN repository
Instructions: http://packman.links2linux.org/
2. Configure the ZYPPER repository (as root user)
For OpenSUSE? 12.2 (v3.5.13.1)
zypper ar -t YUM -G
http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/rpm/opensuse12.2…
-i) trinity
zypper ar -t YUM -G
http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/rpm/opensuse12.2…
trinity-noarch
zypper refresh
3. Install the Trinity desktop environment
zypper install trinity-desktop
After that I logged out, then in changing the session to TDE, that's all
Thierry
Besides, I tried minimal OpenSUSE install + simple Xorg server +
Trinity, still Trinity and kdm not starting. Hence, I looked at logs and
there's no error about kdm or anything related with Trinity. After all,
I think I'm going to choose Minimal X + Trinity installation and I'll
inform you what I achieved..
Thanks for your answers. If someone will try minimal without X then
install Xorg and try to install and run Trinity and in the end success
to run, let me know.
Sincerely,
Eren
