i have kde 4.1 working very well with all the apps i'm using (from firefox |
| 11 |
to old 3.5 apps to gtk+ apps). the configurability is much more improved |
| 12 |
than previous versions and the overall system is good. it is slotted and so |
| 13 |
it can be installed and used with 3.5 not uninstalled. |
| 14 |
the problem it has is with nvidia boards (8xx and 9xx series) due to bugs in |
| 15 |
the nvidia driver (but there is some workaround on the kde.org site |
| 16 |
somewhere) and the kwin effects aren't like compiz ones. compiz, though, |
| 17 |
works very well with kde4 and kwindecorator4 if you use the 0.7 version from |
| 18 |
the desktop-effects overlay and compile it with kde4 use flag. if it fails |
| 19 |
just add /usr/kde/svn/bin to the PATH with export PATH=/usr/kde/svn/bin and |
| 20 |
it should build. if that works just add a PATH=$PATH:/usr/kde/svn/bin line |
| 21 |
in the .bashrc file in the home directories of your users (/root/.bashrc and |
| 22 |
/home/<your user name here>/.bashrc) this will make your kde 4.1 bin |
| 23 |
directory available to command line without passing by full path. |
| 24 |
one thig you might experience is that old 3.5 apps could have a blank icon |
| 25 |
when started in kde4. |
