[opensuse-kde3] 12.0 & KDE3
Hello fellow KDE3 users, Hopefully some of our dedicated KDE3 loyalists are planning to port KDE3 to openSUSE 12.0. If so, also hopefully someone will make a detailed how-to for installation. An iso would even be better, Wish I had the talent to do that stuff. Presently running 11.3 with KDE3. Works great. I also have `11.4 with KDE4 and I hate it. Does a lot of stuff and is really "cool" and glitzy that is wasted on me,but there is a lot of functionality missing that KDE3 has. My Kmail address book is the major show stopper.

In my experience, odd numbered openSUSE releases followed and preceded by even numbered releases are usually inferior at least in part to those that came before and after. 11.3 had immature KMS. 12.x will have systemd. Why don't you just add KDE3 to to your 11.4? Save your worry about unreleased versions until after release. Maybe by next's release Trinity will be ready for it. I just made another KDE3 on 11.4 last night, except there was no KDE4 first, just a minimal X install. So far I see no differences from KDE3 on 11.2 apparent. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg.

Ilya, Do you mean the next releas for SuSE will be 12.1, or do you mean a KDE3 release for 12.1 only.. Bob S -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+help@opensuse.org
There is a "cookbook" of sorts for 3.5 on 11.4, if you wish to put on a new installation: http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/how-faq-forums/un... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+help@opensuse.org
