Hi Michael, Just so you know the list is not dead, but several of the main developers are Debian users. Hopefully one of them responds soon. Regarding the ISO not working, the URL looks familiar. I believe one of the Trinity community members hosts those images. At the moment I don't remember who. :( Just a note, perhaps consider installing pre R14 nightly packages rather than 3.5.13.2. R14 is real close to release and the packages are stable. Darrell

Dependency issues

by Michael Henry

Since none of the Ubuntu isos worked, I tried installing TDE by installing an Lubuntu 12.04 cd. Install worked great, updates worked great, then I followed the instructions here: http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Documentation/UbuntuBinaryInsta… When I tried installing the packages, A LOT of dependency problems came up. Am I missing anything? Installing TDE has never been a pain. I'm converting a Windows user to Linux and I need this computer working. Can someone help? -- Bro.

Default Trinity R14 memory footprint

by Darrell Anderson

I did this on three different systems, all with different hardware. I started Trinity and accepted all defaults for a fresh profile. I then exited Trinity and rebooted each machine. I logged in (command line), flushed the kernel cache, ran free, started Trinity, opened konsole, flushed the kernel cache, and ran free. The default memory Trinity footprints, which excludes the memory usage before starting Trinity and includes the native video drivers: * 111184 KB * 119536 KB * 134876 KB Notes: I did not disable apps autostarted from $HOME/.config/autostart or disable the native video drivers. Thus the first two results on old hardware are closest to the actual default Trinity R14 footprint. Darrell

Re: [trinity-devel] LibreOffice and Trinity dialogs

by Darrell Anderson

>--enable-tde. TDEDIR and friends are the appropriate environment >variables to use. I downloaded the LO sources and walked through the patch stored in 'thirdparty'. As far as I can tell, the patch no longer is needed. Am I correct? Seems all that is needed is --enable-tde and as a precaution, in the build script ensure $TDEDIR, $QTDIR, $QTINC, and $QTLIB are exported to the build environment. Am I correct? There also is a --enable-tdeab option to ensure Trinity addressbook support, but I did not look into that deeply. The option might be enabled by default when --enable-tde is enabled. For a reference point, how long does LO take to compile on your systems? Darrell

No idea. I don not recall ever seeing that particular dialog. :( Darrell

[trinity-devel] Kubuntu CD not installing

by Michael Henry

I downloaded the Ubuntu 12.04 from http://ftp.fau.de/trinity/cdimages/kubuntu/precise/tde-3.5.13.2-ubuntu-12.0… It loads up and runs perfectly. The ubuntu installer refuses to work. I try to run it and it acts like it will and then it stops. Running from the command line is the same with no errors. Any suggestions. -- Bro.

Re: [trinity-devel] LibreOffice and Trinity dialogs

>What LO build script options are needed? Is something like one of >the following needed: > >--enable-kde >--enable-kde3 >--enable-qt >--enable-qt3 >--enable-tqt Also, what environment variables are needed? From what I have found onthe web, KDE4 dialog support needs the following: export KDE4DIR="$KDEDIRS" export QT4INC="$QT4DIR/include" export QT4LIB="$QT4DIR/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX}" Do we need something similar? Would LO be looking for "KDE3" environment variables or "Trinity" variables? export KDEDIR="$KDEDIR" export QTINC="$QTDIR/include" export QTLIB="$QTDIR/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX}" OR export TDEDIR="$TDEDIR" export TQTINC="$TQTDIR/include" export TQTLIB="$TQTDIR/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX}" Darrell
