Re: [opensuse] kde 4
See: http://en.opensuse.org/KDE4 If you also want to do some developer testing: You can also install 11.0 Alpha0 but then you need to do a factory update or the foctory install of KDE4 as mentioned on the link above. As KDE4 of alpha doesn't work yet. http://software.opensuse.org/developer William Biggs wrote: > I would like to know how it install kde 4 > > -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

That is at best a back-formation. The directory name "/usr" is historical and goes back at least to version 7 Unix from Bell Labs and is simply a classic Unix three-letter abbreviation for "user." At the time, it was where user's home directories conventionally resided. > ... > HTH, Curtis Randall Schulz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Previously to KDE4, KDE on SuSE was installed in the /opt directory, which stands for "optional" as a desktop/window manager in Linux (or nix back in the day) didn't need a gui and therefore it was (and by a few still is) considered "optional". RedHat always defaulted to Gnome and it was installed in the /usr dir, and the same for the other desktops/windows managers - in RH they default to the /usr directory - Only SuSE used the /opt directory for the desktop root directory.

Another point were SUSE does not dare to be different from RH? RH already puts everything in /usr and strictly speaking, I hate that.

[opensuse] KDE 4 (Paralllel to KDE 3 on OpenSUSE 10.2) installation issues
Hi All, Trying to install factory build of the KDE 4 on my exisitng openSUSE 10.2 (KDE 3.5.7 upgraded) . Following the instructions from (http://en.opensuse.org/KDE4). 1. Using YaST, added the factory repository to installation source. 2. Not knowing what are the packages I need to install to get a KDE 4 desktop with basic apps, I tried installing (i) kde4-meta-base (ii) kde4-meta-default & (iii) kdebase4-session.But Faced with yast conflict list (attached with the email). 3. In the openSUSE wiki it is said that "The kde4-meta-base package depends on the packages for a basic KDE4 desktop while ..." which doesn't made any sense to me. If it is dependent then what is that dependency list? finally all I am looking for is to install a basic kde4 desktop installation. Please advise?

All the files it installs reside in a subdirectory of the /usr directory. In KDE version 3.x, all the files were in a subdirectory of /opt.

Hi All, Writing to the list as the instruction provided in opensuse wiki ( http://en.opensuse.org/KDE4 ) was not clear enough for me. 1. Can I install KDE 4 parallel to my KDE 3.5.7 (latest release) on 10.2? 2. If yes, should I expect a option to choose KDE 3 / KDE 4 at my login? 3. I am assuming that I will have to get the KDE packages for specific to 4. which is OK with me. But how likely it is to break my existing my total system?
