Hi, I would like to know if there is a set of packages available for the Raspberry Pi model B with 512mb of RAM mini computer. I use Raspbian (based on Debian 7).
I bought it last week and with the turbo (well...) overclock at 1000mhz, it has almost adequate processing power for running TDE, probably similar to the power of PCs used in the first part of the KDE3 era.
Thank you very much! -Alexandre
Hi Alex, as far as I now there is a RaspBian Wheezy build available in the nightly repositories. https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity-nightly-bu...
I remember Tim posting a screenshot of TDE running on a Raspberry, perhaps about 1 year ago.
Cheers Michele

Hi Michele,
Great! I'll look at installing it this week.
Should it be installed like that:
/etc/apt/sources.list
# Trinity nightly builds deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-nightly-build-dep... raspbian-wheezy main deb-src http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-nightly-build-dep... raspbian-wheezy main
deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-nightly-builds/de... raspbian-wheezy main deb-src http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-nightly-builds/de... raspbian-wheezy main With the following key: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net --recv-keys 2B8638D0
And apt-get: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install desktop-base-trinity kde-trinity Thank you very much! -Alexandre

Yes there is, provided that you are comfortable running R14 prerelease: https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity-nightly-bu...

Hi Tim,
Great! I'll try it this week! By the way, R14 is getting better and better.

Yes there is, provided that you are comfortable running R14 prerelease:
I just installed it out of curiosity on my rpi, and it seems to work quite nicely - not overly snappy, of course, but clearly usable. thanks for providing this.

Hi all!
I tested it yesterday! (To those who says I haven't tested Debian in a while, here it is!) It works as it should, but the Raspberry Pi has too limited performance for using it on a regular basis. Even with the ''turbo'' 1000mhz overclock, the ARM CPU is much slower than my first-gen Asus EEE 2G surf, with a small 571mhz Celeron CPU. The 2 computers has 512mb of ram. Still, it is great to see of Linux in general is portable across different platforms.
Thank you! -Alexandre

Erm... If the cap fits, wear it? ;-) I might once have said something approaching that.
I'll have to install PCLOS somewhere just to level the playing field. Is there still a Minime or something? Just to keep that playing field truly level. ;-)

The vast majority of the performance problems on the Pi stem from its very poorly supported graphics device. If you watch top on a remote console or similar you will see Xorg sucking down CPU like crazy whenever the screen changes--not something you want to see on a single-core system. ;-)
