Who's your bleeding edge?

Alrighty, so it's been three whole days since KDE 4.11 was released. We got it in Kubuntu, fscking-a. Arch? Nope. openSUSE Tumbleweed? Nope. Slackers

[HalationEffect]

Slackers

Well, don't leave us in suspense... does Slackware have KDE 4.11 yet, or not?

[vinnywright]

slackware "current" comes with KDE-4.10.5 ,,,,,,,,,,,you will be compiling 4.11 if you want it or wating for someone to add it to slackbuilds maby .

slackware-14 "stable" comes with KDE-4.8.5

Vinny -

You're running 12.04 and 12.10 (your signature). How did you get the higher kernel?

[vinnywright]

Index of /~kernel-ppa/mainline



DL to a DIR & from in the DIR dpkg -i *.deb

[kubicle]

And if you don't wish to use ppas for kernels, you can get backported kernels for lts releases like 12.04 from the main repos (they are optional of course).

example: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source...27.40~precise3

Kubuntu had it first. I think Arch was the next day.

You must have the Testing repository listed, because their package list page still shows 4.11 hasn't moved into Extra yet. And just last night I did a pacman -Syu and got only the newest 3.10.7 kernel, which has a bug: its EFI boot stub is broken, the damn thing won't boot. Sigh. Need to report that.

[ronw]

Yes, testing and community-testing, which IIRC, I needed to enable to enable kde-unstable. You said 'bleeding edge'.

[SteveRiley]

You said 'bleeding edge'.

Ah...you got me there, yup.
