Add ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports to the repositories.

Rather an odd piece of advice to give to a Mandriva user! :P

KDE 4.4 is simply the best DE ever, and 4.4.1 cured many outstanding bugs. Personally, I only had one issue with KDM (logout/reboot/halt not working properly after upgrade), but the cure was really simple: dleteing kdmrc, and reinstalling KDM. Now, it's working perfectly (using both plain Archlinux/KDE 4.4.1 on my laptop, and Kdemod 4.4.1 on my desktop).

 For those of you Mandriva users interested in trying 4.4.0 as root do:

 

urpmi.addmedia KDE-4.4.0 ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/4.4.0/Mandriva/2010.0/i586 with media_info/hdlist.cz

 

For 64bit users replace i586 with x86_64.  Then do:

urpmi.update -a && urpmi --auto-select --auto

 

If you break your system, don't holla at me :D

If you do

 urpmi --auto --auto-select --test

then you will see if you need to do anything else prior to installation. ;)
