In other words, as we said for MONTHS, KDE 4 is incomplete and NOT READY,
Did you listen??
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Hi Aaron,
Not ready for what? 10.3 included a KDE4 alpha, but nobody complained about that.
It's not as if KDE4 is the only choice available, KDE 3.5.9 is there, and the help text on the window manager selection screen clearly says it's less mature

Then why are we seeing this rash of KDE4 problems?
Is it perhaps because the warning was no where near explicit enough, suckering all kinds of first time users into installing KDE4?
Way to make a good impression!
People were begging for more explicit warnings, demanding the word Beta or even Alpha be included. Suse people on this list wer the only ones vociferously opposing this.

I have been saying this for ages the menu for install needs to state very clearly KDE 3.5.x Stable good to go KDE 4.x.x VERY ALPHA/BETA install at your own risk lots missing and faulty Gnome Please yourself but all i ever get i shot down from on high within opensuse the same happened on LWN as well with the same people accusing me of bieng all sorts of idiot for saying KDE 4 IS NOT READY and should NOT BE INCLUDED IN A Distro it probably needs another 9 to 12 months of work before inclusion in a distro it has to be at LEAST as good as the present release of KDE 3.5.x and i mean all the tools ALL the CONFIG options ALL the APPS . I have just got to say I TOLD YOU SO people at suse your reviews will be CRAP and you only have yourselfs to blame there are so many bugs that should have delayed the release for a few weeks it is untrue , You have made your bed you lie in it .
