Hey,
Just wondering if anyone's installed 3.1 alpha yet on a SuSE setup, with there being no RPMs and all.
If so, any problems getting the tarballs installed? Using both 3.1a and 3.0.x on the same computer, or just 3.1a?
I've been running kde from cvs for a while now, parallell to the SuSE rpms. It's pretty easy to set it up Before you configure, do "export KDEDIR=/somedirectory", where somedirectory is where the new kde will be installed. I use /opt/kde3-test. Then compile and install libarts_lgpl (separate download), arts, kdelibs and kdebase in that order. Then do whatever wlse you want to run in any order, and finish up with kdeaddons and kdeartwork. Then, when you run it, do export PATH=/somedirectory/bin:$PATH and export WINDOWMANAGER=/somedirectory/bin/startkde, then do startx and you're set //Anders
