Re: [trinity-users] Last Kubuntu Version That Came With KDE3?

1. I was considering switching to Mint, is there a 
version that has TDE already installed? 

2. Is there a public list of the files in the Mint repo? 
I'm not overly concerned with the distro, I am more 
concerned with the versions of the apps. The older 
ones worked better.

Mint 15 is Ubuntu 13.04/Raring based and can use all the Raring repos
including the ones for Trinity. Trinity installed and runs fine on Mint 15.

I just checked in synaptic that all the packages on your list are available,
including wine 1.4.1. I got best results from starting with the Mate DE
version of Mint 15 and leaving most of Mate/Gnome installed. The result
is fully up to date on media and sound support with Firefox 20.0.

Another good option might be Ubuntu Studio 12.04 with Trinity
installed. I haven't tried this yet, but it'll be the next thing I do. Trinity works fine on standard 12.04 but I'm missing something needed to make the sound work. 12.04 uses wine 1.4, and so far that's been as good as wine 1.4.1.
