kde3 in debian

[eccentric]

Although there is no offical kde3 packages in the debian distribution, there are plenty of unoffical sources. And debs right from the kde.org site aswell (which I'm using now with no troubles at all)

Here is a handy site for kde3 unoffical apt sources

http://www.cupis.co.uk/debian/kde3.html


Just add the source line of
deb http://download.us.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/latest/Debian/sid ./
for instance to your /etc/apt/sources.list

do an apt-get update and then go nuts installing kde3 packages

mabe a section on the site off all the unoffical apt sources we can find and think of is in order?

[eccentric]

actually, it's already been done

http://www.apt-get.org/

shaggy had a really nice screen shot of his install. he got the task bar nice and compact mabe we could talk him into posting a little guide on doing that.

yeah. i do have the bar compacted up in the right-hand corner of my screen.
though there's really nothing to doing it. just a matter of playing around with the Configure Panel app.
mine is set to 16% length, icons large, and the taskbars disabled. cause i never used them anyway.
