Gene, Just done this to check in a virtual machine. I concur with Felix. Expert install of Debian 11.5 - standard - text only. Deselect everything other than standard using tasksel at that stage. Add the https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Debian_Trinity_Repository_Installation_Instructions /etc/apt/sources.list lines. Add the GPG key using wget then apt-get update ; apt-get install aptitude aptitude install tde-trinity and it just works. No drama and everything installed from Trinity. 568M / 700 and change packages? > apt/apt-get/aptitude are used for software installations here. > Thanks Felix for the instructions to try. All the very best, as ever, Andy Cater
