I assume you showed the Debian Squeeze repositories by mistake. So, I trimmed back the URLs, looked around, and went with: deb http://depot-trinity.dotriver.eu/trinity/ubuntu lucid main deb http://depot-trinity.dotriver.eu/trinity-builddeps/ubuntu lucid main However: Err http://depot-trinity.dotriver.eu lucid/main Packages 404 Not Found Fetched 22.4kB in 2s (11.1kB/s) W: Failed to fetch http://depot-trinity.dotriver.eu/trinity-builddeps/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/… 404 Not Found There is no "/lucid/" under .../trinity-builddeps/ubuntu/dists/ But, there is a "/lenny/", as in: http://depot-trinity.dotriver.eu/trinity-builddeps/ubuntu/dists/lenny/... Very strange. Is there a sub-dirextory naming error there? Would using: deb http://depot-trinity.dotriver.eu/trinity/ubuntu lucid main deb http://depot-trinity.dotriver.eu/trinity-builddeps/ubuntu lenny main be a Real Ugly Hack to proceed? >Or upgrade from 3.5.11 straight to 3.5.13.x. >This would not be a problem. I was afraid that _would_ cause me problems. But having an existing, local desktop Ubuntu 10.04 with Trinity 3.5.13.2 gives me (maybe) the ability to fix any strange problems that might appear -- if I have to give up trying to upgrade to Trinity 3.5.12 Thank you. I am looking for an explanation of that "lenny"... Happy New Year! Jonesy

sound in TDE on openSUSE
by Felix Miata 31 Dec '12

31 Dec '12

Does TDE have a preference for either alsa or pulseaudio? The last 12.2 system I installed TDE on has no sound currently. It has installed currently alsa, alsa-oss, alsa-plugins & alsa-utils, but no pulsau*. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

English language spelling question

I didn't see that you ever got an answer to the above question. The answer is that it's both. "Mom" is American and "Mum" is British. I don't know what they use in English Canada. Bonne année et bonne santé de Cincinnati! Tony

Storage Media list in Dolphin
by Alexandre Couture 29 Dec '12

29 Dec '12

Hi everyone! Anyone who have tried my LiveCD would have seen that when you click on ''Storage media'' in Dolphin, you have to click on refresh to see the list of the drives you can mount. Also, if I do a ''safely remove'' on a usb key, I have to click on refresh to see the drive as unmounted. Ok, I'll admit that there is more important problems than this in the world, but It would be nice to have a kind of auto-refresh in that window. Is this problem caused by the underlying changes in Linux (with DBUS, UMOUNT, HAL, ...) or it is just a small problem in Dolphin? Does the next release of TDE will get better support for that? Happy New Year! -Alexandre

TDE and Wheezy
by Lisi Reisz 29 Dec '12

29 Dec '12

I am just about to install Debian and TDE on my husband's birthday present box. He is quite clear that he wants Squeeze. He likes stability and would rather have a reinstallation in the not too distant future than have something not called Stable. And he hates change! But not even the prospect of being left in peace far longer could tempt him into Wheezy. Moreover, he is adamant that he likes KDE 3 best. (I have given him various environments to try.) BUT - I'm the one doing it! If I can present him with a stable box, even if not a Stable one, he will be happy. So - how stable is Wheezy with TDE 3.5.14 nightly builds? I get the impression not quite. But using Squeeze means opening the box and putting an extra network card in in order to be able to install it. (Or anything else with a kernel < 2.6.34.) I just want to be quite sure in my mind that Wheezy won't yet do, before I start opening boxen. Thanks . Lisi

PCLinuxOS Live CD
by Baron＠linuxmaniac.net 28 Dec '12

28 Dec '12

Hi Alexandre, I've now got your live CD installed on my machine... I'm quite impressed though I do seem to have moments of very odd behaviour. For instance I used "Network Center" to disconnect my wired ethernet prior to doing some other things. But didn't reconnect before I shut the machine down. Starting the machine up this evening I discover that I now have "Dolphin" started up and three instances of "Gkrellm" all on the same desktop. Most curious ! Things work mostly as I expect. Good work. Thankyou for sharing. Sent from Trinity Kmail on PCLOS -- Best Regards: Baron

installing trinity on wheezy.
by Calvin Morrison 27 Dec '12

27 Dec '12

Hi, I am having trouble installing trinity on wheezy. I tried adding the sources for sqeeze to my /etc/apt/sources.list but that did not work because of dependency problems. I then changed those lines from squeeze to wheezy. Unfortunately that only worked half way. There is no build-deps built for wheezy available so I removed those lines. When I try and install kdebase-trinity it does not find the package. My /etc/apt/sources.list looks like this: deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-v3.5.13/debianwh… main deb-src http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-v3.5.13/debianwh… main deb http://debian.lcs.mit.edu/debian/ wheezy main non-free contrib deb-src http://debian.lcs.mit.edu/debian/ wheezy main non-free contrib deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main contrib non-free Any ideas?

The consensus there, tho', was the upgrade to FF 17 cleared all that up. Jonesy

Massive update
by Marvin L Jones 25 Dec '12

25 Dec '12

I'm running Ubuntu 10.4 with Slavec's Trinity 3.5.11.1 backport repositories. For some time now -- since the 'official' release of 3.5.11.1 -- I've only been seeing Ubuntu updates. There has been no Trinity updates. I've been meaning to ask here what I should've done to move to the more 'official' Trinity repositories. But, holding a Black Belt in Procrastination, I have yet to do that. This morning I found an update announcement. To wit: The following packages will be upgraded: akregator-trinity ark-trinity arts-trinity kaddressbook-trinity kamera-trinity kappfinder-trinity karm-trinity kate-trinity kbstate-trinity kcontrol-trinity kcron-trinity kdeadmin-kfile-plugins-trinity kdebase-data-trinity kdebase-kio-plugins-trinity kdebase-runtime-data-common-trinity kdebase-trinity kdebase-trinity-bin kdegraphics-kfile-plugins-trinity kdelibs-data-trinity kdelibs4c2a-trinity kdemultimedia-kfile-plugins-trinity kdemultimedia-kio-plugins-trinity kdenetwork-filesharing-trinity kdenetwork-kfile-plugins-trinity kdepasswd-trinity kdepim-kio-plugins-trinity kdepim-kresources-trinity kdepim-wizards-trinity kdeprint-trinity kdesktop-trinity kdm-trinity kdnssd-trinity kfind-trinity kghostview-trinity khelpcenter-trinity khexedit-trinity kicker-trinity kiconedit-trinity kimagemapeditor-trinity klipper-trinity kmag-trinity kmahjongg-trinity kmail-trinity kmailcvt-trinity kmenuedit-trinity kmilo-trinity kmix-trinity kmousetool-trinity knetworkconf-trinity knode-trinity knotes-trinity konq-plugins-trinity konqueror-nsplugins-trinity konqueror-trinity konsole-trinity kontact-trinity kooka-trinity korganizer-trinity kpackage-trinity kpager-trinity kpdf-trinity kpersonalizer-trinity kpf-trinity kppp-trinity krdc-trinity kregexpeditor-trinity krfb-trinity kscreensaver-trinity kscreensaver-xsavers-trinity ksmserver-trinity ksnapshot-trinity ksplash-trinity ksvg-trinity ksysguard-trinity ksysguardd-trinity ktip-trinity kwalletmanager-trinity kwin-trinity libarts1-akode-trinity libarts1c2a-trinity libartsc0-trinity libdbus-1-tqt libdbus-tqt-1-1c2 libindex0-trinity libkcal2b-trinity libkcddb1-trinity libkdegames1-trinity libkdepim1a-trinity libkleopatra1-trinity libkmime2-trinity libkonq4-trinity libkpimexchange1-trinity libkpimidentities1-trinity libkscan1-trinity libksieve0-trinity libktnef1-trinity libmimelib1c2a-trinity libpoppler-tqt libpythonize0-trinity libtqt3-integration-trinity pykdeextensions-trinity python-trinity-trinity 102 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Need to get 102MB of archives. WHAT!!??? Is this copasetic? Anybody else seeing this? I haven't seen a "Heads Up" here about a large, impending update. Maybe there's something screwy within my system and/or my apt configuration files.... I'll hold off on the update until I hear back from someone.

PcLinuxOS TDE non-official remaster release ready to download!
by Alexandre Couture 19 Dec '12

19 Dec '12

Hello everyone! My PCLinuxOS TDE non-official remaster is ready to download! I call it non-official because it doesn't come from the PCLOS team and since it contains software coming from outside of their repos, it is also not supported by them. It can be seen as a whole as the much-loved PCLOS 2007, but fully updated and upgraded. It is a complete system that can be used as a LiveDVD or it can be installed (from the LiveDVD). Major apps pre-installed (in no special order): -PCLinuxOS 2012 base system with KDE 4.8 stripped out and replaced by TDE 3.5.13.1 -Amarok -K3b -Firefox -Dolphin -Konqueror -LibreOffice -Quanta plus -VirtualBox -SuperKaramba -Synaptic -VLC media player -Kaffeine -BleachBit -GParted -QtCurve theme -Baghira theme -The GIMP -QCad -Kontact -Skype -KMyMoney -P7Zip -All PCLinuxOS regular configuration apps -Localisation Manager, to translate your system -LibreOffice Manager System requirement: A x86 computer with at least 256mb of RAM. It is a 32bit system, but it can be installed on a 64bit system too. It is available in a 4-parts zip archive. (Please note that Ark doesn't support muti-part archives, so use another decompression app.) http://www.filefactory.com/file/6ofocsyy5fmh/Readme_First.pdf http://www.filefactory.com/file/4888f7njxdsp/Md5_sum.txt http://www.filefactory.com/file/6bpff7km3nrh/tde_pclos_nonofficial_25nov201… http://www.filefactory.com/file/1kwsx39htb53/tde_pclos_nonofficial_25nov201… http://www.filefactory.com/file/6bpmoz5mhup9/tde_pclos_nonofficial_25nov201… http://www.filefactory.com/file/c15yohy7k6v/tde_pclos_nonofficial_25nov2012… It would be very appreciated if someone can host the .iso file in a mirror! If you like what you see, you can consider giving some money to the Trinity Desktop Environment project! Give me your comments! -Alexandre
