KDE 3.3 released Posted Aug 19, 2004 21:07 UTC (Thu) by alspnost (guest, #2763) [Link] Great news - I've been extremely happy with 3.2 for several months. I think KDE is maturing nicely now, but version 4.0 will no doubt blow us away a little more.
I'm looking forward most to the KDEpim/Kontact improvements, since I'm now using KMail as my primary mailer. Hopefully the 3.3 release will bring it up to par against Evolution, and address the remaining gaps. Running Gentoo, I guess I'll get to find out in a few days ;-)
KDE 3.3 released Posted Aug 19, 2004 23:15 UTC (Thu) by einstein (subscriber, #2052) [Link] Running suse 9.1 with apt, just upgraded to kde 3.3 - some conflicts with kdepim, but otherwise smooth. some subtle changes in the widgets, and some of the screensavers don't work, but for the most part it seems fine.
KDE 3.3 released Posted Aug 20, 2004 5:52 UTC (Fri) by eru (subscriber, #2753) [Link] How does the performance and memory consumption feel like: slower, faster, same?
KDE 3.3 released Posted Aug 20, 2004 10:30 UTC (Fri) by juanjux (guest, #11652) [Link] Some quick things I've noticed:Konqueror in filemanager mode is a lot faster, at least to render the icons (and they don't flick). Also kopete seems to be more responsive while connecting to the accounts. KMail and KNode also seem more responsive while performing network operations.
apt problems Posted Aug 21, 2004 10:59 UTC (Sat) by jmayer (subscriber, #595) [Link] AFAIK apt4rpm can't handle some of the rpm metainfos as far as rpmcontents are concerned, which causes the conflict. As an alternative, you can use yast to update kde. Add ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/ftp.suse.com/suse/i386/s... as an installation source and do a "system update"
