Project Trident

We're migrating to version 1.1 of the TrueOS build framework. project-trident.org/post/2019-03-1…

@bcadej Here is the ZFS cache size option (/boot/loader.conf) # Tune ZFS Arc Size - Change to adjust memory used for disk cache vfs.zfs.arc_max="512M

@TridentProject I’d be grateful if you can point me to some resources how to reduce memory print to a minimum. Also ZFS memory usage. Everything. To a 1GB? 🙈 Thank you.

18.12-U7 package release now available: project-trident.org/post/2019-03-1…

Project Trident 18.12-U6 Package update available: project-trident.org/post/2019-02-2…

Package update 18.12-U5 is now available: project-trident.org/post/2019-02-2…

Package update 4 for 18.12-Release is now available: project-trident.org/post/2019-02-1…

@NeoMoevius What type of laptop do you have? We can ask around to see if anyone knows any tricks about getting the mousepad to work.

I finally tested @TridentProject on my FreeBSD laptop, even my mousepad was not detected (i have to use a mouse) I would like to congratulate to the developers for this project and I could have installed the OS in 18 minutes. Keep working guys you are doing a great job !.

@bcadej I dont think so, it 'might' but it wouldn't run well. Ive never tried on anything less than 2gb, and due to ZFS we dont recommend anything less than 4gb.

@TridentProject Can it be installed on 1GB RAM or even less?

The Project Trident team is happy to announce the 18.12 Release. A bit later than we wanted, but we wanted to squeeze in a few final bug fixes. Announcement here: project-trident.org/post/2019-01-1…

A new @bsdnow is OUT! fireside.fm/s/FYhhasNR+Q3F… @TridentProject 18.12 released, @Spotify on NetBSD, @opnsense 18.7.10 is available, Ultra EPYC AMD Powered Sun Ultra 24 Workstation, OpenRsync, LLD porting to @netbsd, and more.

Thanks for having us on the @asknoahshow !! If anyone wants to reach out and talk to us, you can find us in our telegram channel: t.me/ProjectTrident as well as in the Lumina Desktop Telegram Channel: t.me/luminadesktop

@MacLemon @MischaSprecher HTTPS is up and running now.

@SylveonBxy @AmeBP @LONGSLEEVES Wecome to the neighborhood! 👍

@AndiDog87 Could you file a ticket over on github for us? That way we have something we can track. github.com/project-triden…

@TridentProject This is how Trident-18.12-RELEASE-x64-20190115.iso starts up in VMware Fusion 8.5.10. Buttons outside visible area. Res seems to be 1280x720. Can I fix this somehow?

We appreciate the feedback @ChrisLAS gave us on @LinuxActionNews Though we wish he'd have noticed is that we have ZFS snapshot integration built into the file manager. You'll get a slide bar that lets you scroll back through the ZFS snapshot history of the directory you're in.

@vermaden @q5sys @se7entime @freebsd_bot Like we said before, PR's welcome. We're happy to have people help us improve the look. Though lets stay away from copying MacOS' look and feel to much, that's a bit long in the tooth.

@q5sys @TridentProject @se7entime @freebsd_bot Do not get me wrong, I really like the idea of BSD oriented DE. Its good to hear that Limuna/Trident will have its own and fully controlled by developers WM. ... its just that 'look' you know :)

@MacLemon @MischaSprecher Between work and family, we haven't had much time. The website wasn't a main focus, just a quick HUGO instance to get something up and running. One of our high priority plans it to migrate it, when we do we'll have HTTPS. Until then: pkg.project-trident.org/iso/release/

@MacLemon @MischaSprecher Our entire project is four people. 2 Developers, 1 Documentation guy, and 1 Community guy, all prior TrueOS Desktop guys. Our focus has been on a release so the TrueOS Desktop users weren't left with nothing. We have been focusing on our existing userbase.

@gab_data @vermaden @se7entime @freebsd_bot We know Lumina has some rough edges and bugs. Lumina was a one man project for several years before others came on board. We know we have a lot of work to do, but we've got a great community around us who help us find and fix bugs so we can focus on adding new features.

@gab_data @vermaden @se7entime @freebsd_bot Lumina was created by Ken Moore as a BSD licensed desktop focused on the BSD family of OSes. Lumina shipped with the TrueOS Desktop which Trident is the continuation of. We're sticking with Lumina so we can dogfood our own desktop. Dont like Lumina? sudo pkg install ${desktop}
