Magikx21 Posted October 19, 2005 Report Share Posted October 19, 2005 I'm currently running Mandriva 2005 LE with KDE 3.3 buy my other PC is running Slackware 10.2 with KDE 3.4 and I decided I wanted KDE 3.4 on my drake box. The question I have is can I upgrade my drake box to KDE 3.4? and how should I go about doin this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniewicz Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Search this forum for thac's rpms. Thac has created rpms to enable the 3.4 upgrade, but it is my understanding that the process of upgrading from 3.3 to 3.4 is not perfect. I am a coward and my 2005 LE box remains on 3.3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aioshin Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 i have 10.1 with 3.2 and thac's 3.4 and 2005 with kde 3.3 and thac's 3.4, tho if you search this forum you can find lots of info how to fix the problems you'll encounter, but I have this one problem that had never been fixed...(dunno if this happens to others or just me) in 3.2 or 3.3, (default mandrake/mandriva package) when you install a new package, after installing, automatically the new package will be seen on the mandrake applications menu or where ever it belongs, but with thac's kde 3.4 on 10.1 and 2005, you have to do a "update-menus" command before the newly installed software be seen in in the menu where it belongs.. though it can be invoke already via command line... if you want to have the default mandriva 3.4 package, better upgrade to 2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 I've seen that before too when I had upgraded to KDE 3.4. I did have some problems I could never fix though, so I'll be waiting for it to be released in an Official version :P Which if it's in 2006, I'll have it very soon.....
