I have installed the un-released kde3.2 packages as recommended on http://wiki.debian.net/?DebianKDE
for Sid users who are impatient. These packages are very good indeed and thanks to those who have made them available. Here is a couple of problems I have had: 1) kdm does not work. The symptoms appear to be Xauthority related. There is a temporary Xauthority file getting created in /var/run/xauth/. After logging into kde using the kdm front end, the system just does nothing. Nothing appears to be running inside of X. I can get out with a cntrl-alt-backspace. 2) individual logins at the console and an "exec startkde" via the .xinitrc file and xinit works fine as usual and expected. 3) There is not kcontrol icon in the Kmenu. I had to add this by hand. YOu just about have to have kcontrol ! 4) My xmms-arts package had to be removed, so I have problems running xmms under kde3.2 using the arts sound server. -- James D.
