Hi All, >From the posts, it seems to be that *everybody* had and still having problems with KDE2 final on Mandrake. If there is anyone who installed KDE2 final on a MDK7.1 system without any problems, please let me know how... I know, that normally only the problems get posted, but I think this time we need someone who post a working solution... I cannot beleive that there is no way to install KDE2 without loosing sound, screwing up systems, and already working programs.. I have a wonderfully working Mandrake 7.1 distribution with a lot of hand-editing for config files, customizing things etc. I also have KDE 1.2 installed in a usual Mandrake/Redhat places. I would like to install KDE 2.0 final into /opt/kde2 to try it, and use konqueror, kmail etc. My questions are: How can I put KDE2 final onto /opt/kde2 ? Do I need to uninstall KDE1.2 (which is all over /usr/bin) first? I do not mind to compile qt and KDE, or make it using RPMs, but I want to be sure, that If something gets screwed up I do not have to reinstall my MDK7.1. (I suspect that if I compile the aborted compilation does not screw up KDE 1.2?! Anyone have a comment?) Mandrake rpms are available, I know, but i) they are for 7.2 - I do not want to upgrade my system. ii) they will go to /usr/bin and I want it to be /opt/KDE2... Can anyone give me and advice what would be the safest way to go?!
