# dnf install trinity-tdebase

Entire TDE

# dnf install trinity-desktop

Entire TDE + all applications

(Optional) Install your locale translation package

e.g, for French translation:

TDE translations

# dnf install trinity-tde-i18n-French

Koffice translations

# dnf install trinity-koffice-i18n-French

K3B translations

# dnf install trinity-k3b-i18n-French

Gwenview translations (all languages)

# dnf install trinity-gwenview-i18n

Note: you can obtain a list of available TDE packages with the following command:

(Optional) Set TDM as the default display manager

You must disable your current DM (e.g. KDM, GDM, XDM ...) service and then enable the TDM service.

# systemctl disable gdm.service
# systemctl disable kdm.service
# systemctl disable xdm.service
# systemctl disable lightdm.service
# systemctl disable lxdm.service
# systemctl enable tdm.service

Then reboot your computer.
