Hi,

is there any advice on how to upgrade a SuSE 9.1 installation to KDE 3.3? I remember the last time I tried (3.1 to 3.2) I couldn't get it to work (and never pursued it as SuSE Pro 9.1. came out ;-).

AFAIK the process is something like

1) download the SuSE KDE 3.3 RPMs 2) switch to init 3 (down X Windows, KDM et al) 3) run 'rpm -Uvh *' for the binaries 4) init 5 to watch.

Observations?

That will work, although I'd prefer Fvh instead of Uvh But you might want to look at either red carpet or apt-get. They will make your life so much easier, as they handle dependencies for you
