On Tuesday evening i updated to 4.2 on my Opensuse 11.1. I will just note a
few experiences.

1. Dependency Issues when updating. Some KDE 4.1.3 packages just will refuse
to be replaced and complain but if you look closely you can find a n easy
solution to the dependency issues

2. Performance - Holy Cow - after the reboot after updating (logout - login
was not enough) - i just couldn't believe my eyes. The System was flying. It
is highly reactive and just showed me how slow KDE 4.1 and 3.5 were in
comparison. I never really missed the performance before because i never had
it but i dont want to go back. Great Job.

3. The visual Impression is pleasing - although i would suggest before
update go back to the default theme - because my theme/color combination
looked horrible right after the update - because it just did not fit anymore.

4. So far no problems with programms running and the startup Time of
programms is greatly reduced on my system.


My heartfelt Congratulations to all the KDE Devs - keep up the good work and
KDE 4.3 will be close to World Domination.


Deeply Impressed

Stefan


Ahem, Stefan, your report would carry more weight - in my lowly and
humble opinion - if your address was not <skunze@xxxxxxxxxx> :-) :-) .

Nevertheless I accept your comments because I take it that you are not
one of the developers from Novell working on KDE :-) . Right?


Ciao.
