Trinity Desktop on Debian Jennie/Testing
by Stephen P. Molnar 10 Sep '13

10 Sep '13

Has anyone successfully installed the Trinity Desktop in Debian Testing? I managed to follow the wiki directions for Debian 7.1.0 without any glitches, however there are no /etc/apt/sources.list entries for Jessie. Any suggestions will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Desktop managers
by Mike Howard 10 Sep '13

10 Sep '13

Hi All, I assume that any desktop manager, such as GDM for example, can be used with TDE, instead of trinity-kdm? The reason I ask is I'm having problems getting xming working from a Win7 pc (just getting blank, black screen) and I always found gdm more user friendly. Cheers, Mike. --

openSUSE Installation Steps
by Cameron Rapp 08 Sep '13

08 Sep '13

Hi, I Installed Trinity using the instructions at http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Documentation/OpenSUSEBinaryIns… but it does not work out of the box this way. I'm hoping someone with write privileges can add these steps to the wiki In /etc/profile: Change the lines pointing to /opt/kde3 to /opt/trinity so the binaries will be in the PATH In /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager: Change DISPLAYMANAGER to say DISPLAYMANAGER=/opt/trinity/bin/kdm using just kdm doesn't work, even with PATH set correctly. Also, openSUSE 11.4 repository is broken, there were some dependency issues with the trinity-desktop package. I'll look into that again later. Thank you!

this comes up on any automake builds.

The preview window for the selected saver has the proper width, but 2 or 3 pixels in height. Savers do work.

TDE for Debian Jessie, testing
by Lisi Reisz 02 Sep '13

02 Sep '13

After a plug on the Debian mailing list I got the following reply (which many of you may already have seen): <quote> Alas, Trinity's Debian repo does not appear to work for Jessie. </quote> I'm sure that some of you must be running Jessie - or are we all waiting for 14 to bed in on Wheezy, Stable, first?

Ok its been awhile since Ive used KDE 3.. how do we install apps? I installed MUON but it tried to download like KDE 4 it looked like it installed alot of KDE 4 resources. I have synaptic installed now.. Not profecient with it I am use to a graphical interface but learning. also how do we update the OS? I tried typing in ADEPT not found.. I looked though the menus in classic mode and I dont see an updater??? I installed TDE though a CD instead of a sudo apt-get method. ~ Christopher ~

I cannot figure out how to install flash... I tried sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras it says E: doesnt exist. I went to adobe.com and firefox goes to a page cant be displayed because there is no APT installed. Thanks, ~ Christopher ~
