There is one issue with the tdm greeter that needs patching due to the loss of consolekit between the last build and now to prevent tdm from reappearing after a login attempt: sed -i 's/ck-launch-session\ //' /opt/trinity/share/config/tdm/Xsession (updated tdebase packages are in work) There were only 2 other immediate issues: (1) conflicting x-mplayer2.desktop between kaffeine and tdelibs (fixed) (2) tdenetworkmanager crash on start (in work) Other than that, simply install TDE as listed above, then systemctl enable tdm Shutdown your current desktop and 'systemctl start tdm' -- or just reboot :) It is running fine. I'm sure there are more issues to be found, but given the full set of packages had not been updated in a year, it seems to be running great! All further status updates will be posted to the wiki. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

You shouldn't tell people to ever do just '-Sy'. This can lead to partial updates and potential breakage. -- Curtis Shimamoto

Well, that was in the context of just having added: [trinity] SigLevel = Never Server = http://trinity.ceux.org/r14/x86_64 Without the 'y' there would be nothing to see?? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

It is just never safe to do just a 'pacman -Sy' without the --upgrade, as that has the potential to lead to partial upgrades.[0] [0] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman#Partial_upgrades_are_unsupported -- Curtis Shimamoto

OK, I see the issue. So the only way to install and use a new repository is to do it in conjunction with a full system upgrade. The process would correct be: (1) Add trinity repository (2) Perform a system upgrade (pacman -Syu) (3) Then view/install trinity packages - -- David C.
