ok, so you can just follow the instructions on 
http://www.trinitydesktop.org/installation.php#ubuntu
- section natty.
after having adapted your sources.list file, just do:

aptitude update
aptitude install quanta-trinity

(which will of course pull in the necessary dependencies, see other post).
then you have quanta in /opt/trinity/bin (you might want to add this to your 
$PATH).
settings for quanta etc. go to ~/.trinity and won't interfere with kde4 
settings (or any other DE).
