I cannot say the same thing because i had some porblem with kde menus, but i came from 8.2 before and something of kde 2.2 survived.

I had to use grub instead of linux when installation finished because of errors i don't understood. (see my mail of upgrade: no answers) I couldn't use kde because of riva tnt2 card. I had to rebuild the driver, but no kernel source was present, so i had to download the one on the update site. To do so i had to use old kernel -of course it worked perfectly! Now my hd works with pio mode 16 bit and all seems to be slower. I patched the installation to allow installing security updates during installation, but now all my pakages have check signature fail! The key printed is the same of mine, but lower case! I upgraded k3b (rel. 10), and i cannot use it because of k3bsetup disappeared (i didn't found on kde control centre and no where else) I upgraded to 9.2 last sunday today it's the third day! what can i find more? .... > > So the big question is how do you upgrade?
