nplatis Posted March 2, 2005 Report Share Posted March 2, 2005 Hi, I just upgraded my KDE to 3.3.2 using thac's latest RPMs and I am very satisfied with the result. The process was painless, in general, and many things seem to work better and faster than before. The only problem I encountered concerns the widget styles. More specifically, in the KDE Control Center -> LookNFeel -> Style, only the following widget styles are listed after the upgrade: CDE, Compact, MS Windows 9x, Motif, Motif Plus, Platinum, SGI, Thememdk. So there is not Plastik or Keramik, which I think are included with KDE. Is this normal? I have removed and re-installed kdeartwork-....-.RPM, but nothing has changed. Anyone has encountered somehting similar? Does anyone know which file(s) control the Style section of the Control Center, so that I could check them? Many thanks in advance.

aspguru Posted March 31, 2005 Report Share Posted March 31, 2005 Hi, Nidos I am running KDE 3.2. Can you give a reference how to update the KDE? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nplatis Posted April 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 There are 3.3.2 and 3.4 RPMS provided by thac, at http://rpm.nyvalls.se However, you should be aware that this is not an easy task, you need to upgrade a lot of packages, and there are some chances that the end result is not good. You can find a log discussion in this forum for the upgrade to KDE 3.4: http://mandrakeusers.org/index.php?showtopic=23817 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
