Take a look at http://en.opensuse.org/KDE4

If you have 'kdebase4-session' installed then it should appear as one
of the sessions in KDM/GDM as Mike has said.

For 10.3 it looks like 3.5 is going to be the default, but it will
ship with some KDE4 apps which are sufficiently stable (i.e.
kdegames). The KDE4 session will be available, however.

Kind thoughts,

I haven't tried this in the last couple of alphas, but it should still
work this way: in the graphical login screen, click Session (lower left
corner) before you type your password. You should see KDE4 as an option.

Right now, the two versions of KDE can sit side by side. I'm not sure if
the KDE4 apps are sufficiently stable to replace KDE3 just yet, but I
suspect it's getting pretty close.

I recently downloaded a bunch of kde4 rpms via yast2.  It took awhile 
and when finished I thought I would try it.  Question is "how"!  I have 
not found anything like startkde4.  I already was aware of the new kde4 
location other than /opt.  What is the trick?


Also is it reasonable to assume it could replace kde3 binaries and menus

I must say, that it is realy anoying for laptop-users that have no
extended keyboard, but use fn-keys for activating numlock.
The way to have numlock on by default, means that you must allways
notice this. fe: A password made with numlock on is different when
numlock is off.
Sometimes, this is very confusing.
You *allways* have to remember/be aware of the fact, that numlock is on
by default ;-), and shut it off, if you use a password in the
fn-number zone, or use a password without fn-numpad...

So if it was up to me, i would be glad, if it were not on by default
 ;-)

Yes, this is doable, and in fact already done. See
http://en.opensuse.org/Standards/One_Click_Install for the updated
schema.
