From: Paul Cartwright on 13 Aug 2010 12:10 I installed the trinity apps, per the email, tried to log in, and got hung. So I renamed .kde3 .trinity, and lkderc files and tried to log in again. It said it completed the initialization, then I got a empty blue screen. am I missing the desktop manager? menus? this is basically what I did, and I refreshed the install ( aptitude update) after adding these: > Install desktop-base-trinity, kdebase-trinity, and kdepim-trinity. > > I use a preferences file such as: > > Package: * > Pin: release a=stable > Pin: release o=LP-PPA-trinity-trinity-builddeps > Pin-Priority: 902 > > Package: * > Pin: release a=stable > Pin: release o=LP-PPA-trinity-trinity > Pin-Priority: 901 > > Package: * > Pin: release a=stable > Pin-Priority: 900 > > Package: * > Pin: release a=lenny-backports > Pin-Priority: 800 > > Package: * > Pin: release a=testing > Pin-Priority: 700 > > Package: rdesktop > Pin: version 1.6.0-3.1 > Pin-Priority: 1001 -- Paul Cartwright http://usdebtclock.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Just so you don't feel along, I have the same thing going on, I'm going to let it set for a day or two and see if the upgrades slow down and/or we get a fix. -- Jimmy Johnson Ubuntu Lucid and Trinity KDE 3.5.11 - EXT4 at sda10 Registered Linux User #380263 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Our installation was very specific as we do not use KDM and run inside a VServer. In our case, we set up the preferences and then installed kde-trinity I believe. We did not install desktop-base-trinity because we did not want to pull in all the hardwre interacting portions in the VServer. We copied ~/.kde to ~/.trinity so that we had a backout path, renamed /usr/bin/startkde and then created a symbolic link named /usr/bin/startkde to the trinity startkde script. We then restarted the vserver. That worked pretty cleanly for us although I believe I needed to do an apt-get -f to bring in all the support libraries. You might want to post on the Trinity mailing list or support site to see what the Trinity team has to say. Good luck and let us know how you fare - John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

When he finally resurfaced yesterday, I asked if he had received my emails and he replied that the company he paid to store them while he was down mystically lost them before he had restored his email server :-( I'll pass this along to him as we're still working pretty closely on the Kontact improvements.
