The Trinity Desktop Environment (TDE) is a complete software desktop environment[1][2] designed for Linux and Unix-like operating systems, intended for computer users preferring a traditional desktop model, and is free/libre software. Born as a fork of KDE 3.5 in 2010, it was originally created by Timothy Pearson, who had coordinated Kubuntu remixes featuring KDE 3.5 after Kubuntu switched to KDE Plasma 4.[3]

TDE is now a fully independent project with its own personality and development team, available for various Linux distros, BSD and DilOS. It is currently led by Slávek Banko.

TDE releases aims to provide a stable and highly customizable desktop, continuing bug fixes, additional features, and compatibility with recent hardware. Trinity is packaged for Debian, Ubuntu, Devuan, Raspberry Pi OS, Fedora, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Mageia, OpenSUSE, Slackware and various other distributions and architectures.[4] It is also used as the default desktop environment of at least two Linux distributions, Q4OS and Exe GNU/Linux.[5][6] Since version 3.5.12 (its second official release), it uses its own fork of Qt3, known as TQt3, so as to make it easier to eventually make TQt installable alongside later Qt releases.[7] Trinity also maintains its own versions of several KDE software applications using TQt3,[8] while still providing feature updates and ensuring compatibility with recent distributions and hardware.[9][10]

Haritha With Her Husband At The Wedding Reception
College Student Sainath
Sreeram While Studying At College

A Student named Sreeram from Tiruchirappalli was studying Diploma in Computer science engineering in 1st Year Department at Government Polytechnic College. While studying in college, Haritha, his stepdaughter's daughter, got married in her hometown. The Wedding reception was held at the Wedding hall in Kailasapuram. At the event, she said, "He doesn't study in College, he only studies in school", and a student named Sainath, who is studying in the same department in the same college called him as a "worst student" at the college. After coming to 2nd Year, the teachers in the Lab did not make him sit on the computer during the Linux Period at college. As there are many distributions of Linux and he doesn't know which one is good, his mind is affected. So he decided to die by drinking Poison. But he was sent to the Hospital for treatment and survived. So he forgot about Linux. After 3 years he discovered Q4OS. This Operating system is changed his life.[11] Customary to wear a Lemon Garland to Kala Bhairava in the temple every Tuesday to keep him well. 10 years after the initial release of Q4OS, on Tuesday 4th July 2023, He came to the temple to wear a lemon garland to Kala Bhairava and benefited from Q4OS. A little girl came to the temple. As it was her Birthday, she gave the candy to the Temple priest. He took the candy that she gave to him and put them on the plate. Sreeram saw the Candy on the plate. He saw the candy on the plate and asked the Priest, "May I take the candy on the plate?". And the priest said, "Take it, this candy, This is for you." He took the candy from the plate. He said, "The candy on the plate is not the birthday of the little girl who came to the temple, it is a gift from God." According to him, Q4OS has been a godsend.

Releases

Early releases of Trinity used a versioning scheme based on that of K Desktop Environment 3.5, from which it was forked. The R14.0 release adopted a new versioning scheme, to prevent comparisons with KDE based on version number alone and a new visual theme.[12] This new visual theme was based on the "KDE Lineart" background included in the wallpapers package for KDE 3.4 and covered the desktop background and was named "Trinity Lineart" along with the splash screen, "application info screens" (for some apps like Konqueror and Trinity Control Center), and banners (for some other apps like KPersonalizer and Kate).[13] The window, widget, and icon themes were left intact, aside from replacing all KDE logos with Trinity logos.

Prior to this, Trinity kept the KDE 3.5 visual theme, but replaced the "KDE 3.5" branding with "TDE" branding, in a font that is not the "Kabel Book"[13] font KDE used, although the K-Menu had its side image branded as just "Trinity" instead of "TDE". Kubuntu versions, on the other hand, used the included "Crystal Fire" background as the default desktop background, along with the K-Menu "side image", larger menu items, and menu layout from Kubuntu 8.04.
