I had to fiddle around with the contents of the file a bit not to change the normal look of my desktop. Here is what I put into my .xprofile (for the record). export TDE_FULL_SESSION=false export TDEHOME=$HOME/.trinity export TDEROOTHOME=/root/.trinity export TDE_SESSION_UID=$UID export TDE_MULTIHEAD=false export TDEDIR=/opt/trinity export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/xdg/xdg-mate:/etc/xdg:/opt/trinity/etc/xdg export XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/share/mate:/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/:\\ /usr/share/mdm/:/opt/trinity/share tdeinit_shutdown tdeinit I'm very thankful that you pointed that out Nikolaus and to all the others who helped.
