But i also understand the eagerness to get KDE4 somwhere, to be able to go on. Much work is allready done, and if it is not on the map, it will not be tested. I think it is rather dapper, to throw this virgin before the lions... The team can be so demoralized by masses moving away from deflating quality and workability, the project will die, and never relive again. For me, i want to give the team a fair chance to show what they are capable off. But as i installed KDE A2 x86_64 CD again yesterday, for the third time, i had to throw away .kde again, because the replacement for kicker, i do not know its name, vanished again, not to come back... The install-source factory could be saved, and i zypped dup. KDE3 was pulled in. No deps probs this time, download and install went very smooth. Sax2 is more broken than ever, and spammed xorg.conf with an endless list of non-existing resolutions like: "1440x9001440x900", took me ages to delete all that crap. Hope it works now, but previous times i did this it did not so hope is the only thing i've got. I installed thunderbird, but was not able to set up an account, because of hundreds of error messages: error you have to set up a real e-mail adress, that would not go away, forced me to shut down and go to sleep. As useualy, the grub entrances to my other system, 10.3 were gone, but this time i saved the menulst, and now i can enter them both again. KDE4 is at alpha2 state. Which could mean there's hope also for that... (the only thing that realy works is: working their buts off to kill the bugs, and not wait a minute to start killing them.. ;) - -- Have a nice day, M9.
