Depends. If you mean putting the CD's in and doing a normal upgrade, then no problems, as you will just get upgraded to the default KDE3.2 version. If you then want to upgrade to KDE 3.3 after the initial system upgrade, then there can be issues. The OE version of the RPMs are better than the CE version, but better yet are the 3.3.1 ones from Club testing or Thac: ftp://ftp.proxad.fr/mirrors1/ftp.mandrake-linux.com/Mandrakelinux/devel/testing/Mandrakeclub/10.1/i586 ftp://ftp.proxad.fr/mirrors1/ftp.mandrake-linux.com/Mandrakelinux/devel/testing/Mandrakeclub/10.1/noarch http://rpm.nyvalls.se/index10.1.html These work well, but can be a little temperamental installing :-) Basically, uninstall all the Quanta, Util, Addon and KMPlayer RPMs first before trying. There may be a couple more as well, but I leave those to you to work around. John.
