11.4+ kde 3.5

Hi. I’ve been using trinity kde 3.5 for a while and really enjoy it. It’s much faster and smoother on my system than kde 4.xx. So i looked about for an opensuse version that supported kde 3.5. I know that the last official release was 11.1 and the repos are not now officially supported, but i (think) i found what i was looking for at -

OpenSUSE 11.4 KDE3 – SUSE Gallery

For the life of me i cannot download it. I have an account already setup, but when i click on the download link i get sent to the build it yourself page. That’s all well and good, but there is no option to make an 11.4 version with kde 3.5.

Does anyone know where i could get a download link for an 11.4 version with kde 3.5 already installed, also with repo’s already setup.

Regards

The link you posted is for a pre-built openSUSE 11.4 KDE 3.5 iso, but you have to be logged in when you click the download link.

There still is a KDE3 repo for openSUSE 11.4: Index of /repositories/KDE:/KDE3/openSUSE_11.4. Add it and you should be able to install KDE3 on your openSUSE 11.4

I finally got it but kept getting errors when i tried to burn the iso to disk. Eventually i used win 7 to burn the iso and was successful the first time! It’s not as smooth or feature rich as Trinity, but still quicker than kde 4.xx

It feels creamy to use - a strange description but the only way i can describe 3.5 from 4.xx (lol).

Thanks for the replies.

Please tell me which features Trinity has and KDE3 in openSUSE does not?
