I had no disk drives show in /media, but they were there after adding them in fstab, as béem suggested. I also installed hal (downloaded it from the link provided in one of the earlier posts), rebooted and my disk drives are all now in media, but can not be mounted or unmounted in konqueror, only with pmount. When I try click on the unmounted device i get message "Permission denied", and when i try to unmount mounted device it also doesn't work, here is the screen-shot.

When i plug in USB memory stick, it doesn't show up neither on desktop nor in /media, but can be mounted with pmount.

Trinity fans, rejoice!

I'm currently trying to get Trinity to build on Puppy, natively. I think it would be nice to have a Trinity SFS built on Puppy, with all its dependencies. The reason I'm doing this is Trinity's big number of dependencies (well, after all it's an entire desktop environment) and the huge size of the official DEB packages - I'm sure we can get Trinity smaller.

At the moment I'm building the beloved Qt3. If I get this one to build, I'll continue to arts, tqtinterface, kdelibs and kdebase, which means, a minimal Trinity desktop with Kicker, Konsole, Konqueror and all the basics.

The rest should be pretty easy to add once Trinity's core is ready.

If I succeed, I want to build a Trinity puplet based on Guy Dog - sounds fun Very Happy

Progress report: Qt3, tqtinterface and arts were built successfully.

Now I'm working on kdelibs - it seems to build just fine now (WOW, it took so much time and pain to get it to work), but fails to install.

I'm working on a solution for this problem and I won't let this package harm my Trinity enthusiasm. kdebase should follow kdelibs and that's the fun part already, since this package has KWin, Konsole and the base desktop.

Here's what I have so far:

Ok, this is a bit out of my league, but I have an idea to explore. One of my favorite puplets was this one:

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?search_id=1107530603&t=64510

Now i am not techie enough to fully understand how pri got it all to working, but would it be possible to build a KDE Trinity puplet like this by using the Trinity package from Porteus Linux? Porteus is a continuation of Slax. The Trinity packages from Porteus can be found here:

http://porteus.org/distro-download/download-latest-32-bit.html

Once you get to the page above, click on the modules in the tree and then from there click on the kde3 link.
