Hello,
yesterday i installed TDE (nightly builds) on top of Ubuntu 12.04. On login, all i get is
a blank desktop with an equally blank xterm, nothing else. Oh yes, the first time i also
got this:
"cannot open theme file /opt/trinity/share/apps/kdm/themes/kubunty-trinity"
I linked the tdm folder to the above, but nothing changed, except that the error message
disappeared.
Is this the current state of the project for 12.04, or am i doing something wrong?
Thanks,
Mike

Sorry to say, but the nighty builds are a mess right now.
Kopete does not work
TDM does not work
Just found out Konqueror crashes when USB media are attached
Korganizer has some issues
Right now I consider moving to SuSE who have an official KDE3 repos.
Don't mean to nag but I need a usable system.

OpenSUSE is the latest stable from November 2011 - that's more or less at the
same time as Ubuntu Oneiric. And that is supported for 3.5.13. Using the
nightly build as stable is really not a good idea. As I mentioned earlier, I
plan to prepare 3.5.13.1 for Precise. But until after the officially 3.5.13.1
released as the final (which I expect in the order of days).

Glad to hear that. Oneiric was a horrible, horrible mess. I basically upgraded
from 10.10 simply because its support ran out and was expecting a few bumps
maybe, but what I got with 11.10 was pre-alpha. Kernel freezes, performance
dropouts that spiraled into a standstill, application crashes, hardware
problems and whatnot.

I recommend using the stable releases not the nightly builds for obvious
reasons.

Then don't use nightly builds!! They are still under development, and are
more-or-less bound to be "a mess". Use the stable release and stick to
supported versions of Ubuntu, and you will get on better. (11.10 with
3.5.13, I think. I am a Debian user.)

11.10 - see my other mail in this thread. In short: unusable.

Yes, as I said, I am a Debian user. This sort of thing is partly why! :-)
But nightly bulids would not claim to be stable or complete.

Figures. But if I had to switch distros (which I won't have to thanks to
Slavek) I'd go with one that officially maintains KDE3 anyway, and the only
one I know of is SuSE.
Debian stable just isn't a good desktop distro. Either it's outdated or you
include backports which means they are not as thoroughly tested as the
mainline packages or you go testing if you dare partake in a ride that might
get bumpy.

In your opinion, of course. I disagree.

In general the Testing ride appears to be less bumpy than many recent releases
of Ubuntu at the time of release. E.g. 11.10??
You say that you are thinking of switching to OpenSUSE as though it were a
threat. No one minds if you switch. That is one of the many joys of Linux.
We can all chose for ourselves which way we want to go.
But anyway, you say that Slávek solved your issues, so where is the problem?

Still 11.10 is somewhat of a release which means third party vendors will

is, well, short.

Going to, not has, and I didn't know of his approach when I started the
thread.
