KDE 4.2.4 Released

Posted by timothy on from the smoothing-a-smoothie dept.

An anonymous reader writes "KDE 4.2.4 has been released. See the release announcement for details." Barring a "security issue or another grave bug," this is the end of the KDE 4.2 line, which means for distros based on long-term support, it might be the thing to get used to for a while.

  1. Ouch my butt! by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I just got out of the shower a few minutes ago and my anus hurts after Hans Reiser fucked me in the butt after I dropped the soap!

      I have mod points but...

      Really?

      You let a guy who killed his mail-order, Russian bride, ass rape you?

      I can only say this:

      Can I come to the wedding? And will you be wearing white? (thought not :-( )

      Never been to a Troll wedding.

  2. I just tried KDE 4.1 by caluml · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    This is quite interesting, as I just 2 days ago install kubuntu-desktop from my 8.10 Ubuntu laptop (Acer 5720).

    It looks fine, after you've removed the stupid Postit notes on the screen, and Konqueror as the browser, etc, etc. But it runs like a dog. I can't even play a vid in mplayer without the sound and video skipping, whereas it's fine in Gnome. xorg process runs at 40-60% in KDE 4.1. Apparently, other people have problems with the Intel graphics card that I've got and KDE.

    Verdict: Looks nice, but runs too slowly. Shame cos I have always liked KDE < 4. Aah well, I'll try it again in a year.

    I tried KDE4.1 and it gave me AIDS. Luckily I bought this wolf t-shirt, which cured me, and KDE4.2 doesn't contain any sexually transmitted diseases. Which is nice.
