Forgot to mention kipi plugins are not seen by the "qt3" or kde3 version of digikam, but is seen in the kde4 version.
Also gphotoframe is spitting this little error;
[kate@localhost ~]$ gphotoframe Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/gphotoframe", line 19, in <module> from gphotoframe.liststore import PhotoListStore ImportError: No module named gphotoframe.liststore
So far I can't figure it out but I'm still on it.

Kate Where did you get gphotoframe from? I don't see it in the repo as for kipi I see the devel- but not kipi itself :)

ok I'm using an ISO entitled PCLinuxOS_no_TDE_remaster_5sept2015 I don't know who mastered it but so far, it's a good one.
gphotoframe, was in one of the working reps so I tried it.
Hello Kate,I'm happy that you are enjoying my remaster :) What issues have
you been having with synaptic? I'll be happy to help in any way I can
Alie (present_arms)
Very charming and that would be lovely. Again, I don't know if it's your remaster, but I would like to try it if you can give me a DL link.
Ok bugs:
1. Synaptic, not all the reps are working. So it can't dl some packages so the rep sets need updating.
2. Kipi plugins are not see by the "kde3" version of digikam and perhaps other kde3 versions of other softwares that use it.
3. When assigning an icon to say, a directory or app icon, if you backspace to delete a typo, the dialog crashes. Often taking the associated app with it (for example konqueror).
4. plugged in devices such as usb sticks don't always show up in kwikdisk.
5. During one test the netapplet asked for a root password but then rejected it. Never bothered to trace it since I wreaked the install during tests and reinstalled.
6. when using a settings tool like kcontrol. Once I apply a change, I need to close it up and reopen it to order to make further changes. This also happens when I right click on the taskbar to make changes there as well. Seems to be Trinity related.
That's all I have for now. I'd like to know who's remaster this is for sure. Now that I'm into heavy testing (sounds pervy, sorry), I'd like to work / help with the author as much as me limited skills will allow. Perhaps learn much in the process, always a plus.
I'm really looking for a none ubuntu (no offense) systemd free distro to replace me fav distro, who's last release was 2008. Tis a wee bit out of date but amazingly reliable, stable and configurable. I have it so customized it dances.
Another things I can do without a problems is use /home/foo/setting as the user directory. Then I place other dirs in /home/foo such as /home/foo/User_Files, /foo/Multimedia.
Doing this makes it easier to backup what would normally be splashed out within the user's dir. I have found it makes it easy for windows user and anyone in general to make backups easier. It also makes it easy for some delete happy people who are told not to touch that dir for any reason.
I just reset paths for documents and deskop (which is now in user files) and we are good go do. Been using it for years. Never lost any data, even after HD failures.
Cheers to all,
Kate

Hi kate,
It is really nice to ses that you took some time to try my PCLinuxOS TDE remaster (yes, by the name of the iso I can say that it's mine).
It's also sad to ses that you had some issues with the repos, but I think that I was using a temporary repo that Francois Andriot made available to me. In this case, you can édit your sources.list file as in the pclinuxos installation page on this site.
Also, several bugs has been introduced in the TDE r14 series, versus 3.5.13.2, who was rock solid. It will improve over time, and it also has new feature. It is very important for the users to take some time to report bugs in TDE, because the devs and testers (as me) have different ''testing paths'', so some bugs might be overlooked.
Thank you very much! -Alexandre

No thank you very much! If you would like, I can work with you to test it further. I have about 5 machines and 3 laptops I can use for your releases.
Let me know if this is agreeable.

Alexandre's ISO is what one gets from the TDE website - and it links for me to the Kent University website, but that is probably going by my location. I'm sure you would find that a LOT more people than 10 have downloaded it and tried it.
Sorry, Alexandre. I do try to give your offerings a whirl as you know. But I have been a bit stretched recently. I have in fact downloaded it, burnt it, and given it to several people. I just haven't used it myself! I would use it more if it were small enough to fit on a CD, but it would then be less useful as a real OS. Horses for courses.

Hi Lisi,
No problems!
I'd say that there aren't tons of persons who try my remaster. 10 download from this site is to be expected. More would be nice, but this time I will keep for me the reasons I see for not having more TDE users. My remaster is at least partly there for proving that a modern looking TDE setup is possible.

Yes. ;-)
But I find that it is very popular with those to whom I show it. The problems with using it are nothing to do with how it looks, which I find that people like.
I give your DVD away quite often, and it has been used permanently by at least one of those to whom I have given it. But as I am a Debian fan, most of my converts use Debian.
Moreover, that ten was surely from Alie's site. If it is on various of TDE's mirrors, ten is probably a gross understatement. Anyway, can't you use whichever icons you personally like on your own remaster?
Lisi
Sorry for the conversion in my posts, I bottom post so I don't know why my text is tangled with footers and sigs Anyway I did mean from my site not the one that mirrors for me in Kent also :) and I am aware that more than 10 have been downloaded :) it's a good remaster and one of the reasons I don't mind hosting it :D I still have Alexandre' ISO installed in a VM and kept up to date :) some great Ideas on there. again my apologies for the opps on posting Alie

Hi Alie
Give me a dl link for your ISO and I'll test it as well. I can give you 3 machines for that (3 test machines I have free here).
Let me know,
Kate
Hello kate you will find the iso's here http://trinity.mypclinuxos.com/isos%C2%A0 the last ones are big-daddy 64 and 32 .11.15 :) You'll see what I mean when you see it :D please feel free and break it :D makes for a better desktop when breakages are solved. Alie

Thanks Ali. I shall dl it now, install it and smashing it with a blinking deadblow sledge hammer. Oh what fun!
I'll let you know the results in a few days. Is there anything in particular you would like me to check out?
Thanks again,

Have you tried David Hare's Exegnu Linux? It runs TDE as one of two desktops and is based on Devuan (Debian minus systemd).
http://exegnulinux.net/downloads/jessie/
The earlier, Debian based ones, are also systemd-free, but they are more out of date.
