Support for Ubuntu Resolute (26.04) has been added to #TDE Preliminary Stable Builds (PSB) and Preliminary Testing Builds (PTB) and will be available for the R14.1.6 release.
At the same time, support for Ubuntu Bionic (18.04) has been discontinued, so only packages up to R14.1.5 are provided.
Packages are already available on the #Trinity mirrors. Find out how to install them at these pages:

- PTB: https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Preliminary_Testing_Builds
OK I have struggled with GNOME like elements in file chooser dialogues in XFCE for some time now and am considering a non-GTK desktop.
In XFCE, MATE and LXDE I can configure the title bar buttons in windows such that the close button is on the left and the minimise/maximise are on the right. See the attached image.
This is similar to the RISC OS layout and stops me accidentally closing windows.
Is this layout possible with the KDE/LXQt/Trinity desktops?
#TDE R14.1.5 introduced a new Flying Konqi wallpaper. Various users have reported imperfections and probably some AI-based sloppiness about it, things that had unfortunately not been spotted during the initial development review.
We have taken note of the feedback given and asked the original author to rework the wallpaper to enhance its quality to an acceptable level. Should this not happen, we will have no choice but to remove the wallpaper for the release of #Trinity R14.1.6.
New feature added to #TDE ksnapshot. It is now possible to drag-n-drop pictures from ksnapshot directly into other receiving containers, such as browsers, file managers, image programs and anything accepting "text/uri-list" types.
Updated PSB/PTB packages are already available on the #Trinity mirrors.
Perun
In Slavic mythology, Perun is the highest god of the pantheon & the god of the sky, thunder, lightning, storms, rain, law, war, fertility, & oak trees. His other attributes were fire, mountains, wind, iris (the flower), eagle, firmament, horses & carts, & weapons (hammer, axe (Axe of Perun), & arrow).
The supreme god in the Kievan Rus’ during the 9th-10th centuries, Perun was first associated with weapons made of stone & later with those of metal. The Kievan Ris’ (a.k.a. Kyivan Rus’) was the 1st East Slavic state & later an amalgam of principalities in Eastern Europe from the late 9th to the mid-13th century. It encompasses a variety of peoples, including East Slavic, Norse, & Finnic.
The Primary Chronicle relates that in the year 6415 (907 AD) Prince Oleg (Old Norse: Helgi) made a peace treaty with the Byzantine Empire & by taking his men to the shrines & swearing by their weapons & by their God Perun, & by Volos, the God of cattle, they confirmed the treaty.
In 980, when Prince Vladimir the Great came to the throne of Kiev, he erected statues of 5 pagan gods in front of his palace which he soon thereafter discarded after his Christianization in 988.
Perun was chief among them, represented with a silver head & a gold moustache. Vladimir’s uncle, Dobrynya, also had a shrine of Perun established in his city of Novgorod. After the Christianization of Kievan Rus’ this place became a monastery, which continued to bear the name of Perun.
Perun was worshipped by the Varangian (Scandinavian) warriors hired by Oleg & Igor during the campaigns against Byzantium. In the treaty of 971, the Varangians reenforce with the Slavic deity, Veles.
When the arrival of Christianity, the old gods fared poorly amongst the Slavs. Grand prince Vladimir the Great, who had once been a very vocal & lavish patron of Perun, converted to Christianity.
In 988, the prince & his family & people of the Kievan Rus’ were collectively baptized. He ordered that the statues of Perun which he himself had erected formerly, be dethroned, torn down with great dishonor & dragged through the streets as they were beaten with sticks. The idols were then cast into rivers & not permitted to land on the shore. 3 of Vladimir’s sons are also recognized as saints.
In neopaganism interpretation, the struggle of St. George with the serpent is understood as the struggle of Perun with Veles, who stole cows from him.
According to the book Dezionization by Valery Yemelyanov, 1 of the founders of the Russian neopaganism, in the ideas of the “Veneti” (“Aryans”), there was a “trinity of three triune trinites”: Prav-Yav-Nav, Svarog-Perun-Svetovid, Soul-Flesh-Power.
In some currents, Perun may be the supreme patron god. Since 1992, the 1st neopagan Kupchinsky Temple of Perun has been in St. Petersburg.

The regression about tiling of maximized windows has been fixed.
An updated version of tdebase #TDE R14.1.5 that includes the patch has been prepared for deb-based distros, Arch and FreeBSD and will soon be prepared for rpm-based distros too. The new packages are already available on the #Trinity mirrors.
For more info about the issue, see https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tdebase/issues/675 and https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tdebase/pulls/678
One of the two regressions introduced by #TDE kdesktop R14.1.5 has been fixed. It was actually a pre existing bug that the new version of kdesktop simply brought to light.
An updated version of tdelibs R14.1.5 that includes the patch has been prepared for deb-based distros, Arch and FreeBSD and will soon be prepared for rpm-based distros too. The new packages are already available on the #Trinity mirrors.
For more info about the issue, see https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/tde/tdelibs/issues/379 and https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/tde/tdelibs/pulls/380

Info for #Trinity developers, packagers and builders.
krusader can now be built with cmake. Until the release of R14.1.6, both cmake and automake builds will be supported, afterward automake support will be removed and only cmake will be available. Make sure to update your building scripts as needed.
This is part of the continuous effort to migrate all #TDE code base to cmake builds. Check the current status at https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tde/issues/9
Not a #TDE program, but since we collaborate closely with the project, we are glad to promote the release of Uncrustify 0.82.0!
Uncrustify is a source code beautifier for C, C++, C#, Objective-C, D, Java, Pawn and Vala, with tons of configurable options (857 atm) that allows for many different formatting styles.
Get the release at https://github.com/uncrustify/uncrustify/releases or at https://sourceforge.net/projects/uncrustify/files/uncrustify-0.82.0.
You can use #Trinity's UniversalIndentGUI-TQt if you want a graphical front end for it 🙂
Gooooodigucci Mooorgening 🥳 my beautysinhos 🤗🤗🤗
And don't forget that beauty comes not for free. It is the #Trinity of hygiene, self-care and ☕ relax.
And today iiiiis ..... waxing time. 🥰
Some #TDE users have reported two different issues with kdesktop when upgrading to R14.1.5. See details at https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tdelibs/issues/379 and at https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tdebase/issues/662.
The problems seem to affect only some #Trinity users, not everyone. We are investigating and we will work on a solution for both regressions.
@rl_dane When #KDE went to version 4.0, I switched to #gnome. When GNOME went to version 3.0, I switched to #xfce and haven't left.
Occasionally I will use #MATE but mostly for nostalgia. #Trinity even less so. I appreciated KDE's vast customization abilities but things felt disorganized and all over the place.
The UI designs of both KDE 4.0+ and GNOME 3.0+ were, quite frankly, terrible. Amd by terrible, I mean their cognitive ergonomics worsened significantly to the point of driving people away.
Note for users of #TDE Preliminary Stable Builds (PSB).
As it is customary with every new #Trinity release, there is a short period of time when PSB packages will be held in a frozen state, matching the release ones. This facilitates switching back to stable package for those users who moved to PSB only for temporary reasons (for example for urgent fixes).
Building of rolling PSB packages will resume on Nov 23, 2025.
