Trinity R14.1.4 desktop environment release has been published, continuing the development of the KDE 3.5.x and Qt 3 codebase. Binary packages will soon be prepared for Ubuntu, Debian, RHEL/CentOS, Fedora, openSUSE, and other distributions.
Trinity eripärad hõlmavad oma vahendeid ekraani parameetrite haldamiseks, udev-põhine kiht seadmete toetamiseks, uus seadmete seadistamise liides, üleminek komposiitide haldurile Compton-TDE (Compton’i fork TDE laiendustega), täiendatud võrgu konfigureerija ja kasutajate autentimise mehhanismid. Trinity keskkonda saab installida ja kasutada samaaegselt uuemate KDE väljaannete puhul, sealhulgas on võimalik kasutada Trinitys juba installitud KDE rakendusi. Samuti on olemas vahendid GTK-programmide liidese korrektseks kuvamiseks, ilma et see rikuks ühtset kujundusstiili.
