From: Grant on 24 Oct 2009 07:49 I see slack-current is updating to kde-4.3.2 on my local miiror, wonder if there will be a fairly early 13.1 release? After all, so many were disappointed with slack-13's Kde-4.2 brokeness. Grant. -- http://bugsplatter.id.au

I'm gonna look at it again around KDE4.5, in the meantime too happy with Xfce and a number of smaller wm. May actually never go back to KDE now. YMMV. barnabyh

KDE 4.3.1 had some stupid bug...that seems it all dissapeared at this new current KDE version... KDE 4.3.2 seems very stable here...

Stable maybe, as I've only been using it for a few hours. However, I noticed right away that I can't change the panel theme from "air" to anything else, and Kmix just doesn't work because it can't find library libknotificationitem-1.so.1. It's not in any installed package. Sound works, but I have to use a "knob" to adjust the volume. OH! the humanity! Also, where is the "different wallpaper for each desktop I heard this version was going to reinvent? Andy

Try alsamixer from the command line. nb |
