I'm trying to install from the tde-14.0.9-ubuntu-20.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso onto a Dell Latitude E5410 laptop, but the installer fails to start. /var/log/installer/debug contains:

So, something weird about Gtk; and what are NM and NMA?

The live CDs are very out of date. Do a network or server install and install TDE afterwards. I personally do a fresh debian and install the TDE base, pulseaudio, flatpak, network-manager, network-manager-tde, pavucontrol (I switch audio outputs between speakers and USB dac often) , tdesudo, and libreoffice and this gets me a good setup. The only thing I do after is change the trackpad config as per debians website to enable tap to click.

That's what I tried first, but I've never used Debian based distros before, and got all tangled up with repository setup etc., so decided to install from live, when presumably all of that would be in place (and it is), so I'm able to upgrade everything, but can't get the system installed onto a drive.

I don't use Ubuntu, but with "real" Debian simply following the instructions on the TDE Website normaly "simply work":
- copy the indicated lines in /etc/apt/sources.list - install the keyring - apt-get update - maybe install aptitude - install TDE

Honestly if you can use Ubuntu, you can use Debian. The install instructions are easy on the TDE wiki are all you need, plus you have us here to ask questions. Just remember to install network-manager and pulseaudio (or pipewire i suppose) as I dont think they're included by default

I guess; but I've never used either before. I'm an OpenSuSE man. :-)
