“First off, I want to give a huge thanks and a
shout-out to Linux Today reader Candid for suggesting that I take a
look at Trinity. Your suggestion piqued my curiosity enough to make
me want to do a full review and write-up. This one is for you.
Thanks!“Reviewing this Linux distribution has reminded me of automotive
news site Edmunds Inside Line’s final review of the 2010 Mercury
Grand Marquis in honor of Mercury’s impending demise. It was a
great nostalgic piece, as the car itself had turned into a weird
mishmash of throwback controls and modern safety technology. For
example, antilock brakes are present (as is traction control), yet
the frame itself is a ladder-frame (like a truck, rather than a
car’s unibody frame) and the turn signals are operated by actual
switches (as opposed to computerized systems). This is how I felt
when testing Kubuntu 10.04 Trinity. It’s a weird mishmash of
old-school and new-school KDE.“So what is Trinity? For one, it’s not the codename of this
distribution — this version of Kubuntu 10.04 is still called
“Lucid Lynx”. Trinity is actually the name of a project that aims
to revive, maintain, and further develop KDE 3.5 as a fork from the
main KDE project.”
