the opensuse packages are really out of date... the panel isn't working correctly, the systray also not, on my system it has no background (yes i've cleared my .kde4 folder) ... i would recommend to try the KDE4 vm image to get a good overview of the progress KDE4 is making. You'll be suprised!

I'm using the KDE 4 repo for openSUSE (and get updates nearly every day), and all of these issues are fixed. I sometimes switch my session from KDE 3 to 4 by pkilling Kdesktop, replacing KWin3 with KWin4, and starting Plasma. I'm not pkilling Kicker, this causes issues with the tray icons of KDE 3 apps, but beyond that KDE 4 is working quite well.

Someone asked me for the repo URL. It is

http://software.opensuse.org/KDE:/KDE4/openSUSE_10.3/

The current version is 3.96.2-8.2 (compared to the old-as-the-hills 3.93.0.svn712059-6 in the default repo)

I think this is the right time to give a big virtual hug to the packagers at openSUSE. You deliver me a great Linux experience!

The service is very good but some of the packages don't work properly.
