Therein lies the problem Quanta from "kdewebdev3" dont play nice on kde4.2.x it needs a whole rack of kde 3.5.x stuff which sort of absolutly and totally defeats the whole idea of KDE4.2.x does it not it is taking bfar too long to get apps ported accross to KDE 4.2.x there is too much way way way too much time being invested in EYE CANDY which may please the windBloWs brigade but most of us want the apps and to hell with the EYE CANDY till the APPS are good
Pete, you, and everyone else (including me), want smooth transition. What do you think how that is going to happen? Wait until all applications are ported. That will happen when Mr. Godot comes. Ranting against eye candy? Please, read this: http://en.opensuse.org/KDE/KDE4 " Performance Issues KDE 4 is the first Free desktop environment to make use of advanced features such as compositing, alpha blending and scalable graphics at the core of the desktop, as opposed to only using a compositing window manager ..." It is not eye candy, it is just the way to use computer efficiently, not as i386 and xyVGA graphic, with higher clock rate. If you are about efficiency and better use of gear that you paid for then you will greet that, instead of repeating eye candy, eye candy until repeat key breaks. You say that you need Quanta for web development. This days one can't go by without using eye candy of some sort, static, or dynamic, so why would web developer put endles rants against it? One should appreciate to have platform that can display his work without delays.
