IMHO, even KDE2-1.94 was stable enough.
(just remember: Mandrake's kdebase-1.94-7mdk is around 6-7 days newer then
"generic" kdebase-1.94 "Beta" or "RC1", because Chris Molnar is updating it
every day or even several times per day; so was kdebase(libs,support)-1.99.
I am wondering which exact version (-1mdk? -5mdk>) is in LM Walmart Edition,
but, believe me, it has Mandrake patches/fixes against latest CVS to that
date)
KDE2-1.91, 1.92 - these were unstable...
