gcc 3.4.1 is fully stable on /some/ platforms. In fact, on ~amd64, using |
| 23 |
gcc 3.4.1, and a currently keyword masked (but previously ~amd64) |
| 24 |
binutils-2.15.91.0.1-r1 that's proven /very/ stable for me here, my system |
| 25 |
is more stable now than it's been since I got it, on EITHER Mandrake for |
| 26 |
AMD64 or Gentoo for AMD64. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
That includes KDE 3.3.0-b2, which is as stable as the previous 3.2.2 and |
| 29 |
3.2.3, here. It was running 3.2.3 kdegraphics stable with 3.3.0-b1 |
| 30 |
everything else as well, b4 the ebuild for it came out. |
| 31 |

I don't run the kroupware stuff like korganizer, neither do I run plugins |
| 33 |
in konqueror as I've simply not had a need for them and flash probably |
| 34 |
wouldn't work anyway because AFAIK it isn't available in 64-bit and |
| 35 |
naturally, attempting to load a 32-bit .so plugin in a 64-bit konqueror |
| 36 |
would cause issues <g>, so none of the reported issues there have hit me. |
| 37 |
Neither have the reported issues in kmail and the like, tho I DO use them. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
As far as I'm concerned, it could be KDE 3.3.0 release, and amd64 stable. |
