I did install yesterday sid 4.4 .... it's a headache ... so I'll wait until it works at least half the way. I'll try squeeze (kde4.3) but I think it was told that it's not pretty food yet. So to me it looks like we can safely use kde3 the next 2-3 years. regards -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Now if you switch from english to rushian/bulgarian or whatever ALT+K gives a completely different keycode ... So I had to always change this. Now in kde4 it's even better. You have to click ... and no reasonable language switching combination is working.

Please file a bug! > I'll look to get a complete list. We'll have to discuss also the stuff we don't need too. this was my first impression. the conclusion is that it will stay unusable for quite a long time yet. your commitment is motivating me to do some testing ... may be it's time to have some closer look at upcoming testing debian. I'm still not that motivated as I would love to be, as I'm primary focused on debian stable. regards -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
