I'll check this toroughly as soon as those folks from the admin team in our dormitory enables my internet access again. I wish for a ride, and I think I'll get hell of one. KDE is the best desktop ever. Go KDE, go.
(ehhrm, btw, what about 3D anyone? You wouldn't mind trying that on akademy, would you (*hint, hint*)?)

A lot of people can download, burn and test a live cd. A lot less scary than installing some rpm's, let alone compiling from source.

If only it wasn't released on the freeze date for kde-3.3-RC1 :(

Too bad, this could be such a valuable tool.

Is amarok included in this release?

Why not find out?

Simply questions require equally simple answers :P

By uniplex at Fri, 2004/08/06 - 5:00am

Sounds quite arrogant for an answer where a simple yes or no would do.

I think the big warning in the background image stating the purpose of this CD ("test version, software may be unstable, if you prefer a stable version then get it from the website") is a very responsible measure.

Enrico, your optimizations make konqueror so much more fun to use, well
I don't have the words to describe... :-)

(For those who don't know what I'm speaking about:

Enrico, you rock and I hope you will make your way through kde cvs and look
for more things to optimize!

Such "small" optimizations are so important!!
They make KDE look very professionnal.

Apart of that, support for css::border-collapse:collapse; is a nice and
important addition aswell!

Big thanks to all the KDE developers from a happy user!

Thanks for pointing this out, it is indeed AWESOME stuff. Keep going, Mr. Ros!

Can't wait for 3.3 to see all this stuff in action!
