Great Release but I am not able to run it
by Swaroop on Wednesday 31/Oct/2007, @20:35

The release was very fast from beta 3. Great work KDE team.
I am sorry to say I was not yet able to get a glimpse of KDE 4. I installed KDE 4 (beta 4) through opensuse YAST but whenever I start KDE 4 I get the error "startkde: Call to lnusertemp failed (temporary directories full?). Check your installation." Whenever I run any KDE 4 application via KDE 3 then I get another error. This is the error I got for Dolphin "dolphin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libdolphinprivate.so.1: undefined symbol: _ZN9KDirModel10insertRowsEiiRK11QModelIndex". This is what I get for KReversi "kreversi: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libkio.so.5: undefined symbol: _ZN11KConfigBase8rollbackEb" . Any idea whats happening?

Try by uninstalling what you have installed (all KDE4 packages) and then install the kde4-meta-default package from he openSuse site using their one-click install. It will work after that and you will get updates in the future.

Same result for me:

I need to uninstall beta3, delete .kde4 directory in /home and re-install kde4.

I have the same problem with clean fresh install from the OpenSuse 1-point click in Opensuse 10.3. I have the same problem as root or regular user, unable to try KDE4 as a result. So far Google showen several suggested solutions (including deleting ~/.kde4 and reinstalling fresh) but none seem to work.

If anyone found a solition please share,

Thanks Milan

Make sure that none of the Suse DVD packages are installed before installing the new packages.
I used the search function in YaSt to find and delete all old KDE4 packages before installing the new ones using the openSuse one-click install and it worked fine. I used the default installation without adding extra packages at first.The only problem that I have is that the background picture is missing and I don't know how to add one. Some of the widgets from the previous version are also missing (in my installation) even though I installed the plasma extra gears.
