Re: kubuntu gutsy packages available!

Ugh, kubuntu packaging of kde4 has been sub par. It makes KDE4 look buggier than it really is. I suggest people use opensuse if they want to test drive kde4.

I am using openSuse but I haven't been able to test rc1 properly. I updated from the latest beta to rc1 yesterday and realized that a few things were missing so I uninstalled everything and did a reinstall but I can't start kde4 anymore. I don't know if there is anyone here with similar problem.

Have you tried deleting the ~/.kde4 directory (or, move it somewhere if you've done more than just look at older versions of KDE4 and wanna keep your settings)?

I found the problem. I installed the default system but forgot to install the basis system. Now it's running but I haven't had any background picture since the last beta and some plasmiods that were in beta 3 are missing even though plasma extra-gears is installed.
I also deleted the .kde4 directory more than once but there is still no background picture and the plasmiods are still missing.

Compile KDE-svn if you really want to test kde4. It's a snap with the kdesvn-build script (yes, also in *buntu). I´m typing this comment from KDE-svn now.

It is really workable and it's friggin BEAUTIFUL.
