Kopete from KDE4 makes crash the KDE3 nspluginscan. Synaptiks from the latest versions of KDE4 cannot be used with KDE3, so that I use some very old version. I am not sure about compatibility with KDE4 knetworkmanager. (Nm-applet surely conflicts. So, I only installed the KDE3 version of knetworkmanager.) There were some conflicts in printing packages, but I do not remember, which particularly. But in fact I do not use KDE4 (though it is installed on my computer), so I cannot say, how KDE3 affects it.

Guys,
Once a year or so, I like to load kde4 and see how it is progressing if I can do it without it killing my kde3 install. So I want to know if anybody runs both kde3 and kde4 on the same box and whether they can live together side-by-side without squabbling among each other like school children. If you do have both installed, where is the best repo to get the kde4 install for 11.4 from. (development packages are fine as long as they don't screwup my K3 install. What says the experts. My year is up, so it is time for me to load that mother and see how many more rocks I get to throw at it in bugzilla.freedesktop.org.
What say the experts - worth loading and from where -- or -- don't bother, the training wheels haven't even been taken off yet :)
