Hi,
I'm sorry for the shortcomings you may experience with it.
This means that Trinity package for PCLinuxOS aren't 100% compatible with the newer
packages used on PCLinuxOS. As of now, you can use the system as is after the install, but
without upgrading it.
I'll work at making the new version of it available very soon. It will have newer
kernel (better hardware support) and the TDE packages are built against the new libraries
used in the present version of PCLinuxOS. Coming soon!
There is currently no plans to make a 64 bit version of my remaster, since 64 bit machines
has enough power to handle more than TDE, but there is always the possibility to change
the Kernel to one that supports more RAM on 32 bit machines.

Hi Alexandre,
No need to apologize the remaster works really well. You can't be faulted if they make
changes that are not compatible and I hope you don't feel like I was critisizing you
as I would not. I was just hoping someone else had seen it and said oh yeah just pin
package X and you will be fine. I look forward to trying out your next version. I ran the
old one for a few months before it broke and honestly I thought it was something I did
until I tried a few fresh installs.
I am pretty good at respinning Debian/Ubuntu systems and have even compiled my own Centos
spin but I have yet to figure out how to do the same on PCLinux and I really enjoy your
work.

John, I have exactly
the same problem on my Compaq laptop with the NEW
pclinuxos2014.
However, the problem dissapeared after I did an upgrage, using keys (
instead of mouse ) to get to synaptic.
After the upgrade, the problem stayed away. Muse works perfectly now.
The background shows up and that is it. Mouse moves
but I can't do

My compaq is also intel only
and video cards if that makes any difference. The
other thing is on
both machines I have downloaded a different kernel as I have 4gb of
ram in one laptop and 8gb in the other and PCLinux only sees two with
the kernel on the CD. I know Alexandre said he was working on a new

I have 8 Gb RAM, and
pclos sees all
Hope this helps somewhere somehow

I see no <<real difference >>in
performance on 32bit hardware and 64bit
hardware with the same amount of RAM
The difference only is visible when increasing RAM

I am very happy with pclos-tde so far .

Alexandre,
May I draw your attention to the fact that the pclos of today has
certain, or shall I say, a lot of issues concerning google-earth.
On your last year's remaster, google-earth worked <perfectly>.
After updating pclos libraries to current state, I have not been able to
get google-earth working , neither on your remaster, nor on the
original, be that the standard or the minime version..
The better news is, that I use google-earth purely for amusement, not
because of need.
There is always google-maps
Thanks
Tony

Hi,
The remaster is currently near release. All I need to do is to skim it out a little bit,
since the ISO is now 2gb. But, what is to understand is that it includes tons of software,
this is why it is so large.
I'll look at google-earth issues, but I'm not sure if it will be part of the new
ISO, because it is already big.
On the new stuff, there is Wine (Win compatibility layer), XBMC (A Media Center) and all
the system is updated, so no more printer issues.

Thanks Tony I will try that out if I get some time this weekend. Easter so family stuff
going on.
Alexandre I think Wine is a great idea I do use it myself to play some games so it is one
of the first things I install. I like the PlayonLinux frontend makes it super easy to
use.

Hi Alexandre
It's OK to NOT include google-earth if you wish so.
At the moment it's recommended on the forum to install google earth from
the google site, and not from the repos.
So, maybe it's better you do not include it, BUT leave a small text file
on the desktop with a message, explaining why.
That way you don't get "" complaints "" either.
Have fun over there :-)

One thing that I would ask you to check is my machine will no longer
talk to the time servers. It gives me an error message "Unable to
contact time server: europe.pool.ntp.org". It doesn't matter if I
choose another one, I still get the same message.
Thanks:
