Hello friends, I switched from FreeBSD back to Debian for several reasons:

* More software (not necessarily just Trinity), especially with flatpaks
* More documentation since I continued to have "unsolved mysteries" on FreeBSD
* Greater performance and hardware support
* GNU/Linux just as free as in freedom as FreeBSD, I was a bit one sided before

But I have an issue. I have installed most core components of Trinity (tdebase, tdeaccessibility, tdegraphics etc.) but I always start in a tty when booting. I tried to execute the starttde script but it doesnt work. Furthermore if I add it to .xinitrc and run startx, it doesn't work. If I remove my home .xinitrc file and use startx, the session will start but I can't use TDM at all.

Running the script directly is a lot more verbose, telling me that pretty much nothing can connect to the X server. I have seen this talked about before in the ML but it seems like they solved it. I used to use the preliminary testing branch and it worked but I decided to go with stable this time and can't seem to get TDM to work at all. That pesky X server.
