I cannot talk for the Trinity team, but removing the hal dependency and moving to use udisks is essential. As you know the next openSUSE release will not include hal which is needed for normal operation of KDE3 (i.e. detecting and automounting removable media).
Wouldn't problems like this be easier solved by investing some or most of the KDE3 time you spend now in building Trinity packages for openSUSE instead?
And how this can help? :-) Does Trinity have a udisks backend about which we do not know? :-) Even if it had why we cannot add it to our packages as a patch?
I'm not a developer, just a KDE user. However, from what I can tell, KDE3 is merely being sustained, while resources are committed to evolving Trinity to whatever extent is required to keep up with support system evolution, e.g. hal being replaced by udisks.
is that the same as udev? (that should let you know how little i care to know about under the hood shtuff:)) at any rate, don't Ilya's posts seem to indicate that there is an effort to resolve that for kde3, no?
I installed Kubuntu 10.04 on a system a few days ago with Trinity, and I can't see any reason not to upgrade to Trinity, quite unlike switching from openSUSE to *buntu.
i tried trinity kubuntu in the 10.10 version. it had akonadi, keyrings, kwallets, nepomuk (or whatever way that stoopid thing is spelled) and so on, in short it was loaded with too many of the things i despise in kde4! after the third time i was interrupted by the message that i had to install some lib in order to make nepomuk functional, i decided it was enough and installed 11.4 with xfce, then raised it to kde3:). d. <clip....> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+help@opensuse.org
