No major problems now, but this is after going through the process I 
described. Before that, I ran into similar problems not only on the 'buntus, 
but on several other distros as well. 

However, another user (Brian Durant) made what seems a useful suggestion: to 
install "a base, mini, server (or whatever it is called) version. After that, 
you just add the Trinity repos to the list that your distribution uses." 

I think the problem is one of too much other stuff from other distros, not 
enough Trinity. 

Anyway, I do not geek for geek's sake, and am not trying to one-up anybody. 
Building my own system is the only way I can afford to keep a working 
computer, and actually get work done; it is a matter of survival for me.
