Hey everyone, sorry if this is the wrong place. I am having issues with TDM on my Debian
install, it never wants to start x. When I use startx it loads trinity (with broken
transparency), but I cant get TDM to work at all.
My tdm.log ends with:

Hi Jacob,
Would you please supply the output of the following commands:
uname -m
lsb_release -sd
tde-config -v
If the third command gives an error please try this instead:
/opt/trinity/bin/tde-config -v
Thanks,

[ 4.840] (EE) open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or

This message is because of X trying to start too soon, because /dev/dri/card0
hasn't yet been created by whatever kernel or driver action populates /dev/. It
has nothing to do directly with TDE/TDM. I see it happen also with KDM3, and have
been for going on 2 years[1], without any progress in determining why.
Instead of using startx, try systemctl restart TDM, and it will probably work, and
you may find X using /dev/dri/card1 instead of card0.

Restarting the tdm service brought up TDM with transparency working again, thank you.
Is it potentially a distro problem?

Problem is not limited to openSUSE, but is where I discovered the problem and
consequently filed bug reports.
Forcing inclusion of KMS module in initrd may be a workaround:

I edited the /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service and added these lines after
[Unit]:
After= systemd-udev-settle.service
Requires=systemd-udev-settle.service
And it fixed the issue, adding to my personal Debian Trinity install guide. Thank you so
much! :)
Now I have one more "bug" to squash lol My damn laptop goes to sleep and takes
FOREVER to undim the darn screen, but one thing at a time lol

xset might help?
# xset dpms force on
You'd probably need to dig into where to stick that though ;(

Im thinking it has something to do with this.
https://bugs.trinitydesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2650
Sometimes the laptop dims the screen, and a mouse wiggle will slowly (like very slowly)
bring the display back to normal brightness, but sometimes it stays completely dark with
no way to adjust the brightness and only a reboot will help.

You may be missing some /etc/trinity/tdm files. Here's a one-liner
to take a look:
# dpkg -S '/etc/trinity/tdm/*' | awk '{print $2}' | while read p; do
file "$p"; done

You could also if you wish post the output of "ls /etc/trinity/tdm".

Thanks for your help Jacob. I was following up on the message above
but now it looks like it is not a real problem. I'll file a bug report
to suggest the message should be removed.
I don't use systemd so Felix is best placed to help you I think.
