Trinity Desktop upgraded to 14.0.9

[wove]

Trinity Desktop was upgraded to 14.0.9 on 11/1/20. I was playing with TTOS and it updated yesterday. Today I am waiting for it to finish updating on my Raspberry Pi. Change logs are on the Trinity Desktop web site <www.trinitydesktop.org>

I gave up with Trinity as I had too many issues but may take a look to see if things have improved. In my case Ive had more issues with Trinity versus KDE which has been a great experience.

It depends on the issues I guess. They've fixed a number of long standing bugs such as the huge lag in setting up keyboard shortcuts, brightness keys now work - apparently but I don't have any. Qt Curve has finally been updated, various other stuff done. If you're referring to Q4OS then they are still stuck in 14.06 - now 2 releases behind. Vanilla install on top of Sparkylinux CLI is good so far in VM

Yes referring to Q4OS which has been a disappointment but have been trying the PCLinuxOS Trinity version recently. Im sure PCLOS will be updated to newer version and Ill give it a try.

Going to give SparkyLinux a try with Trinity.

The installer for the CLI version is sparky-installer as I recall. For any CLI version I always install Midnight Commander (mc) to make life easier when editing apt files etc - or finding installers

I installed tde-base from the Trinity Repos. Afterwards I had to install apulse and kmix for sound. One thing I did find was that after installing kmix I had to run sudo ldconfig to get kmix to run - but that's in a VM. Minor issue but it may help.

Other than that I would mention that the Sparky repos do provide a lot of apps that you don't normally find maintained in local repos elsewhere. Odd things like latest versions of Seamonkey, Freeoffice and a number that they have developed themselves.

Going to get it setup tonite after work. Will post back.

I managed to get 14.0.9 installed on the PCLinuxOS version and its pretty nice but still doesnt suit me as well as KDE.

The upgrade on my Pi was not as smooth as it could/should have been. Everything is working alright, but the menu was completely trashed and I have had to spend time putting it back together.

That's curious, is that the Q4OS Trinity version?
