Re: [SuSE Linux] enough already! 5.3 is going, going...

Does anyone know when this may be released? I use staroffice myself and would like to switch to mainly KDE apps.

KOffice is out there now, but I haven't successfully used it yet. My installation skills are still of the newbie variety. I was trying to set it up without gcc installed. I'm so lame. :) Now I am going at it with TOOLS in hand. It's like learning after several compiles that you then have to PLACE the kernel somewhere. This roller coaster of learning is cool. Is anyone else like me....do it first, then read the book? *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 9/5/98, at 12:15 PM, RICK CHANDLER wrote:

KDE is enough like OS/2 that I don't mind the looks. 1.0 is configureable enough you can make it look pretty good! It's speed is EXCELLENT, and most apps are good. Most of our users in my dept. at Cornell don't need all the features of SO, which is what I use, so both of these apps will do fine for them. I checked out the KDE site today, and there's still no word as to when they'll release the apps in question, and are still marked as "unstable."
