Re: [trinity-devel] Networking with Trinity on a laptop

>Howdy, Long time no see. :-) >T430, T61 and x220 owner here. Welcome to the family! I got a good deal, $200. I got an Intel graphics model to avoid the whole ATI mess. >If youll be using network manager, everything will be basically >seamless. Does slackware use nm? Yes, and wicd. Wicd is optional. NM is part of the default installation. I presume then I start NM from the rc.d scripts but configure NM from Trinity? KControl? Is NM designed that when I am connected to wired that NM uses that rather wireless? Darrell

Sym Links Incorrect and Unknown icon type
by Darrell Anderson 03 Jul '13

03 Jul '13

Although not on the R14 release road map, does anybody want to help resolve the many bug reports related to Sym Links Incorrect and Unknown icon type? I probably reported every single problem, but I don't know how to resolve them. I'm guessing after a couple of each are resolved that a pattern will emerge to allow resolving the remainder. Darrell

Networking with Trinity on a laptop
by Darrell Anderson 02 Jul '13

02 Jul '13

I just bought my first laptop (really, my very first!). A refurbished Thinkpad T400. I'm days away from getting a working Linux based system, but I need to know how both wired/wireless networking is supported in Trinity. Mostly, how to easily toggle between wired and wireless. I plan to use both with the laptop. Do the main Trinity packages provide that support or do I have to add other network packages? Slackware handles networking differently from other distros, so this might be an opportunity to provide some meaningful (newbie) testing and debugging. :-) Thanks. :-) Darrell

No longer existing packages are still in the apt repository
by Slávek Banko 01 Jul '13

Tim, I was surprised when I found out that packages like tdebase-kio-trinity are still available in the apt repository, although it has been replaced by a more than three months ago. These packages now causing problems when updating from 3.5.13.x to nightly-builds. How is it possible that these packages not disappeared a long time ago? How to fix it? Besides, I noticed that the package ubuntu-trinity-rename-meta is in the build-deps and is not part of tde-packaging (probably could be named simply trinity-rename-meta, and should be included in the main repository). I think that the version of this dummy package should be set to 14.0.0, because otherwise they can not help with the transition => packages are in conflict with renamed packages. Slavek

Soft Freeze
by Timothy Pearson 19 Jun '13

19 Jun '13

All, I am still attempting to stay approximately on schedule for R14 release per our Etherpad here: http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/39 As a result, I am announcing a soft freeze of TDE starting 06/20/2013 at 00:00 GMT. If there are any new features or enhancements that should make their way into R14.0.0, now is the time to commit them to GIT before the freeze. Depending on how quickly the remaining bug reports can be resolved, a hard freeze will be announced in the coming week/weeks. Once again, thank you all for your hard work on TDE; it is much appreciated! Tim

Nightly Ubuntu LiveCDs now available
by Timothy Pearson 18 Jun '13

18 Jun '13

After a long delay, automated nightly builds of Ubuntu LiveCDs with TDE R14 are now available at http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/cdimages/ubuntu/ These LiveCDs offer a convenient way to test TDE R14 (or the current development branch) without risk of damaging your existing installation. They are currently experimental, however as R14 nears release an official LiveCD will be released from this autogenerated CD set. Therefore, if you want to help the offical LiveCD quality, please download the latest ISO, test it, and report any defects to the bugtracker. Enjoy! Tim

Please check: > >http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Documentation/Releases_ >3_5_13_2 Looks fine. I presume the two screenshots are actually the same defaults in 3.5.13.2? If not then perhaps update the screenshots. :- ) Darrell
