I had this thinking KDE became more advanced than Gnome, then again looking at simpler Gnome desktop makes it feels like a mac. While I couldnt decide KDE or Gnome, fluxbox, blackbox, rox, Xpde, Xfce are there to give me more “freedom” what you can use.

    Hi! I want to upgrade my current installation of KDE to the most current version (3.5.5), but the computer it’s going on only has dialup access, and obviously it would take an EXTREMELY long time to get all of the necessary components.

    I have decided to attempt to install the program manually, downloading the pieces I need onto my laptop, then transferring them over to my XP machine and copying them to the Suse 10.0 installation, which can read NTFS partitions. yes, it sounds kinda Rube Goldberg-ish, but the laptop has wireless access, but no CD/DVD burner.

    Anyways, what components are required to do just a bare-bones install? Thank you)
