Simon,
How much different/better is KDE2.1.1 then KDE2.1beta2? That's what I've
got running on my system at the moment and without any troubles I might
add. I'm wondering if maybe they might've stopped here and not gone on
to release a final version of KDE2.1. Are there any improvements with
2.1.1? I'm thinking/hoping maybe that it's a bit easier on system
resources. I know...so shoot me, but I fella can hope, can't he? :)
