Hello all. This is my first post on the list. Can I start by saying I have only just heard of TDE and I am very happy. For me this DE is one the best today. But one or two issues are stopping me from switching to it permanently.
My first problem is this:
When I right-click on kicker panel and select Configure Panel, in the new window that opens I only see options for configuring Taskbar (in the left column). Nothing for Appearance or kicker position on the screen. Can anyone help?
My second problem is:
I do not see any option in the menu for Shutdown, Suspend or Hibernate. I only see Logout. I have enabled the options in kcontrol.
Sorry if this post lacks detail but I am sending it from Cinnamon Desktop, so I can't be more detailed.
Thanks to all those involved in developing this DE!
Greetings fellow archer!

Possibly something funky happened with your paths since I am assuming you built from the source? Have you used anyones packages? Where do you have trinity installed?

Methinks this could be related to hal. Do you have hal running and functional?

I installed from Arch AUR repository. It's installed in /opt

hal is not set to run on boot but if I start it (hald --daemon=yes), then logout / login, nothing changes.

You're welcome! I love TDE and would like to get it running properly.

I can't answer your other question, I'm afraid. But this one I can: Click on logout You will be given a list of options Click on "turn off computer".

I've tried this already Lisi but thanks for the suggestion.
I'm sorry I did'n't realize you were using from the AUR. I am almost certain the AUR packages are out of date.
David Rankin was developing new PKGBUILDS for Trinity, I'd check out the arch wiki page on trinity (but fyi, david hasn't been seen for months)
