Hello to everyone, i´m new here so if i posted on the wrong place, please excuse
I want to ask you if there would be any troubles if i install OpenSuse 12.1 with KDE 3.5 !! Do i get ¨full support¨ from all the apps ? Like …Mozilla Firefox, Amarok, Skype, etc
Should i install KDE 3.5.X or should i not ? Please give me some advices. I just dont like KDE 4.x.x
Thanks in advance.
Welcome to the opensuse forums.
KDE 3 can we installed very easily with opensuse 12.1. I personally prefer KDE 4 but always install kde 3.5 as I sometimes like to use that for a change. You can use all the kde 4 applications with kde 3 and kde 3 applications with kde 4.
To add kde 3 to your install just do the following:
click on the kickoff (start) button / computer icon (on the botttom) / yast / type in the root password / software repos / add / community repos / put a tick in the kde3 one and then OK / software management / view / repos
then select the kde3 repo and add what you would like to install. would suggest that you install the main base packages. if you then log out of kde4 - there is an option button to selecr session and you will see kde3 shown
In thinking about doing that not really a fan of 4
How long will 3 be supported?
Can i use 3 and another user use 4?
Thx
