I just tried to get starting with kdevelop. Somehow I cannot get the development files installed:
# apt-get install libqt3-mt-dev libqt3-mt Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done libqt3-mt is already the newest version. libqt3-mt set to manually installed. Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies: libqt3-mt-dev : Depends: libqt3-mt (= 3:3.3.8d-1ubuntu0+ax1~squeeze) but 3:3.3.8-d-0ubuntu0+sr73+pr181~squeeze is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Any idea how to correct that?

Since installing the latest backport kernel in Squeeze, kdm-trinity login screen shows this:
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to begin
This process helps keep your password secure
It prevents unauthorized users from emulating the login screen
I seem unable to find any info on this behaviour, least of all how to disable it. Aside from a general annoyance I can't run a TDM virtualbox because that key combo will bring up the host's logout screen.
I prefer Squeeze generally but need a kernel => than 2.6.38 to support xz decompression
Any pointers to a solution?

VirtualBox must have a way to send Ctrl + Alt + Delete to the virtual machine. However, to disable this enable in /etc/trinity/kdm/kdmrc UseSAK=false.

Thanks, you two! I have only logged in once since I upgraded my kernel from backports. That message annoyed me. If I had had to live with it for any length of time, it would have driven me crazy.
Thank you both for saving what remains of my sanity!

Thank you Slávek, that has sorted the problem here too (although I don't yet understand what actually is "UseSAK=false")
You must have heard the thundering curses, all the way from England, before you read my post!

Is Ctrl-Alt-Del a Trinity choice or a Debian kernel choice? I never liked Ctrl-Alt-Del (in Windows) because I have been used to type that for reboot. And it has a Windows taste.
I read here from Andrew Morton http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/SAK.txt : "What key sequence should you use? Well, CTRL-ALT-DEL is used to reboot the machine. CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE is magical to the X server. We'll choose CTRL-ALT-PAUSE."
Seems to me to make sense (although I personaly don't use the login screen on my private machines.

Ctrl + Alt + Del Trinity is a choice - independent of the kernel and distributions. Perhaps this was the intention of choice precisely because it was for the users typical sequence.
Note: On some notebooks can be key Pause less accessible than Delete.

Virtualbox has a way to to do this. In the VB menu for your guest, with the mouse select 'machine>insert Ctrl-Alt-Del' It also suggests the keybinding 'Host+Del'will do this. I use the mouse , have not tried the keybinding.
I am used to this behavior since I still have a NT4 vm that requires this.
