Life today is a struggle to be without systemd. Like other people I have been playing with removing systemd for a long time, but only the last month did I get serous about leaving systemd completely, as a linux tester it was a hard choice to make and now I see there is a real war going on to keep systemd out of your OS.

Personally I like clean base installs and then add the desktop and Trinity is a KDE Desktop based on the award winning KDE3 desktop that was abandoned by KDE about 9-10 yrs ago, adapted and updated by Timothy Pearson, who used to develop Kubuntu, since KDE3 was abandoned. https://blog.spiralofhope.com/tag/linux-distributions-which-do-not-use-systemd It might still be available for one of them, but I suspect that when I looked, it wasn't the main desktop environment for any of them. Unless there's a packager behind the scenes working on it (fingers crossed for you), Devuan itself doesn't have it packaged, so it's unsurprising that (at a glance) no distribution based on Devuan features Trinity. I was still curious.. I tried to find the developers' reasoning in building it, as philosophies are a fascinating read for me. I had no luck. It appears to be a continuation that matured into its own desktop environment. May I ask your reasoning for wanting Trinity? [ I wonder if you can be convinced of another environment (or none at all) enough to migrate and use Devuan. ] Simple, I'm a point and click user and KDE in my opinion is the best.

I have no problem with KDE4 on Jessie, the only problem I have with Jessie is that it's not spectre variant 1&2 patched, only meltdown patched.

Re: [DNG] Ubuntu w/out systemd?
If you like that sort of thing.. http://exegnulinux.net/ Is a Devuan based distro using Trinity DE out of the box. So I think that would be your go to easy option for that. Looks updated as of December just gone. Other than that you can use KDE or MATE on Devuan ascii beta, if you're looking for something bigger. Depends on your requirements.

Not quite true. There is a Devuan derivative that uses TDE. It was one of the first! https://sourceforge.net/projects/exegnulinux/ And yes, TDE won't get into the Devuan repos unless someone steps up to package AND maintain it from release to release. That being said, there are several Devuan users who have TDE installed from other sources. golinux ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
Re: [DNG] Ubuntu w/out systemd?
jaromil . . . I'm pretty sure that Timothy Pearson is the one doing TDE. Some threads here: http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0:201712::d:t There was discussion last year about adding TDE but it never went anywhere.

Re: [DNG] Ubuntu w/out systemd?
I had never heard of Trinity until now, and I've done a bit of searching through distributions without systemd: https://blog.spiralofhope.com/tag/linux-distributions-which-do-not-use-systemd It might still be available for one of them, but I suspect that when I looked, it wasn't the main desktop environment for any of them. Unless there's a packager behind the scenes working on it (fingers crossed for you), Devuan itself doesn't have it packaged, so it's unsurprising that (at a glance) no distribution based on Devuan features Trinity. I was still curious.. I tried to find the developers' reasoning in building it, as philosophies are a fascinating read for me. I had no luck. It appears to be a continuation that matured into its own desktop environment. May I ask your reasoning for wanting Trinity? [ I wonder if you can be convinced of another environment (or none at all) enough to migrate and use Devuan. ] On Mon, 9 Apr 2018 22:24:23 -0700 Jimmy Johnson wrote: > I'm looking for a distro that features TDE-Trinity ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
