    4.4 Beta Packages

    Does "Comming soon" have any time estimates on it?

    And could someone correct the spelling mistake it really grates to see that on the front page

        If you aren't afraid of breakage, you can enable the staging repository. Obviously this is as unsupported as it gets. If you upgrade while packages are being uploaded, you may end up without a kpanel or other brokenness.

        deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/staging/ubuntu/ karmic main

        Edit: If you find yourself without a kpanel, you can use Alt-F2 to get a run dialogue and launch konsole, dolphin, etc.

        Edit 2: Just upgraded my laptop. Now is one of those times where you get no kpanel, so you may want to hold off...

          For those of you that share my wreckless disregard for system stability, installing kubuntu-desktop seems to have returned the kpanel.

          For a bit I had a duplicate panel, so I shutdown kde from a console:

          sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop

          Removed my kde config:

          rm -rf ~/.kde

          Restarted kde:

          sudo /etc/init.d/kdm start

          And it seems to be mostly good.

                DO NOT USE THE STAGING REPO!!!!!
                Read the ppa description. It is NOT for use to install any packages, it is for staging in order to set up for when the packages are completer and ready for use in Karmic. There are or will be missing packages, broken dependencies and general mayhem will be present. It will also probably eat your cats and scare your pooches as well

                The developers are working on it very hard, but there are some teething problems to be remedied in Lucid, and these fixes will make it down to the karmic packages.

                Patience, grasshoppers

                If you are really eager to get 4.4, I would actually suggest testing out Lucid Alpha. If you find anything broken fixes will be made there first.

                But for the love of Pete, please don't use the Staging repo!!!!!!

                      but that was the whole point

                      just upgraded and boy does it feel good.
