To do so, execute {{cmd|drakrpm-editmedia --expert}} and put check marks in the "Updates" column before the Trinity repositories.  +   +All trinity packages start with "trinity-" so in drakrpm (MCC > Software management > Install & Remove Software) filter on that to see what of is installed and what is available. (Both dropdown selectors set to "All".) For main localisation search "trinity-tde-i18n", and for per application translations search "-i18n-" and sort alphabetically to see all of them beginning with "trinity".  +   +Note that integration in Mageia lack some details, examples: You need to launch MCC as root. Some non-TDE programs missing in menu - so use menu item "Run command..." or right click to edit the menu.     == Logging in to other desktop environments == == Logging in to other desktop environments == Morgano
