    Be Free With KDE 4.0!


    The KDE Community is thrilled to announce the immediate availability of KDE 4.0. This significant release marks both the end of the long and intensive development cycle leading up to KDE 4.0 and the beginning of the KDE 4 era.

    This is truly the start of something amazing!

    Get your KDE 4.0 hot off the grill! Instructions are at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-4.0.php

    Re: Be Free With KDE 4.0!

    Hi,

    I tried it this afternoon. It looks great, but IMO, I think it's not ready for Kubuntu 7.10.
    With composite enabled, it is reacting slowly. I don't think it is my PC( Pentium Dualcore 3 ghz and 2 gigs RAM + Nvidia Ge-force 7600 GT), because with compiz-fusion it is running great. Next week I will give it a try with Suse 10.3 and see if it is any better.

      works fast as *%$£ on mine (dual core 2.2ghz 4gb ram)

      nice stuff, only used it for the last 10mins but am suitable impressed! having issues finding things that i want to change (ie right click apps menu, panel options) but thats just mainly fluff things, everything thing else works like a treat, and looks slick!

        Yes I couldn't agree more! I have faffed around with my set up and have found some widgets (Garfield comic, my pics etc, and I am very impressed. Yes it is a bit slow but no big deal for me anyways.

          where did you find them? also how do you add them in?

          also i found that running 'sudo' commands in konsole and using my normal root password works as normal, however opening package manager asks for the root password but doesn't accept it - any ideas?

            Re: Be Free With KDE 4.0!

            Now I've been waiting so long for the release of KDE4, but somehow I can't install kde4-core. If I click on "Request Install", in the column "Requested" (don't know the correct english label ) "DEFECT" is displayed.

            Has someone the same problem?

              have you tried running it from the terminal?

              sudo apt-get install kde4-core

              that's how i got mine running

                I tried it, but it's not working.
                I can't quote it in English because my shell speaks German, but the last error message is like: "E: Broken Package"

                don't know how to fix this

                  if you have synaptic package manager -open that it has a custom filter for broken packages, you can find it using that.

                      You get the extra widgets by installing:
                      extragear-plasma

                      as for the password have a look here:

                        Aw man...am I the first with problems?

                        Code:
                        $ Xephyr :1
Extended Input Devices not yet supported. Impelement it at line 625 in ../../../../hw/kdrive/src/kinput.c
Could not init font path element /usr/share/fonts/X11/cyrillic, removing from list!
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
                        I'm continuing on:
                        then and run /usr/lib/kde4/bin/startkde in the Xerphyr xterm.
                        and will be back with results after rebooting and all.

                            Looks awesome!!! I haven't had much of a chance to play around with KDE 4 yet, due to several other projects I'm currently working on, but everything really looks like it's coming together great
