I will now crawl back into my igloo and warm up next to my Athlon. It gets really hot from all this compiling." Or you could just call out those 3 little letters that make ya feel so good ... a-p-t. I'm installing now. Hope you guys fixed all the bugs I reported!

    If I wanted windows, I'd use Windows.

    WindowMaker is the best

    Well, if you want NeXTSTEP, you should use NeXTSTEP.

    Maybe somebody actually chooses his/her OS for another reason than it's GUI.

    /me mutters something *very nasty* about Bero

    If its like KDE 2.2.0, Bero built them for 7.2. If you're silly enough to be running the stable release, you should rebuild every SRPM by hand, and then install a bunch of nonstable non-KDE apps

    That's REALLY REALLY DUMB and is wasting vast quantities of everyone's time on the various KDE mailing lists.

    Go here to get properly built, working 2.2 packages for 7.1. With any luck our mate ben should make 2.2.1 ones real soon.

    Otherwise, ask the Freshrpms guy. Need a working package for anything for a Red Hat system? This guy is nice enough to take requests too.
