Hi, I know some of guys here using kde4.1 beta 2. How's you experience ? Should I install kde4.1 beta 2 or not?
My experience with kde4.1 beta 2 on a Dell Inspiron 1150 laptop was not good. I first installed the crippled version from the dvd, then deleted that and went for the 4.1. Installation was ok but as some have said, some apps were not available. No big deal as it's a beta. For a while it worked ok but following an update, it went South. On boot my desktop was a blank with no panel, just a white screen. Using alt-f2 for a command line I could start apps, but no panel, no desktop Alt-tab would sho the running apps. Tried the usual startkde and lots of other finger magic, but no magic. I could get a good desktop if I logged in as root. A few days later I deleted the whole thing after a reinstall did nothing new. Went back to Kde3 which worked fine during all this. Will try again in a month or two but not going to spend more time experimenting. No I did not submit a bugzilla. It got so screwed up I dont think I could have made a decent report.
