798104 2009-08-05 10:01:00 Only if the Ubuntu team does a credible job of integrating it properly - their track record with KDE is nothing short of shocking.
I would agree with that. I have heard KDE 4.3 is a real step in the right direction and if I had a better PC would compile it myself as it will probably be a little while before it is in the PCLinuxOS repositories.

798105 2009-08-05 10:15:00 Know of any distro that doesnt require compiling from source that has kde-4.3 in its repo's yet? I wanna whack it on the Eee900 :D Tonight even if I can ...
Debian? Slackware? Fedora?
A quick Google turns up very little (SWMBO is summoning me)

I compiled KDE from scratch before under Gentoo on a Pentium 3 (933 MHz) and it only took a day. :p Jen (38)
798108 2009-08-05 10:56:00 I once compiled KDE from a bunch of bits, but making it outa scratches would be a novel build ;)
It was a very early and small KDE, I was a lot more patient and enthusiastic in those days.

I have tried Kubuntu occasionally, but it tried me more than I am willing to endure. And any gnomes will get just as short a shrift on the desktop as they get in the garden (Bargnomes excluded).

Well I have an AMD Duron 1300 so it should only take 23 hours.

798112 2009-08-05 11:49:00 OK, KDE 4.3 is out - Is it out by much, and will it be in again soon?

p.s., The clock's not out yet. ;) The time is though. ;)
