regeyaI don't think konstruct is gentoo-only, but let's have a looksee05:55
linux_galorebob2: his answer was use Gentoo.....but the correct answer is use "konstruct" the kde channel isnt a gentoo evangelizing channel05:55
HrdwrBoBChrisC_: -4 is a later version of the same thing05:55
HrdwrBoBChrisC_: maybe a few updates, bugfixes etc05:56
bob2linux_galore: there are idiot gentoo users everywhere, you just need to tune them out05:56
agwibowodaniels: have you received my e-mail?05:56
ChrisC_so the -3 and -4 releases are Ubuntu packages?05:56
HrdwrBoByes05:56
ChrisC_why would they still offer the -3 package?05:56
AndHeSaysHrdwrBoB: are the packages included in a releases relatively new (not the lastest-just-of-beta version, but decently new, as redhat was always lagging behind)?05:56
regeyakde does work beautifully under gentoo, but I don't think I'd give that as a first option05:56
sensebendbob2, they are far outnumbered by helpful Gentoo users though05:57

Guardiannthe problems that seems like so many are trying to fix10:12
pdklmy grandmother installed lindows on her computer last month10:13
tritiumGuardiann, it's just that people installed the new kernel since it was available, without realizing that the modules are not yet available.  NOt really a problem.10:13
