According to KDE’s bug-tracking system, 7293 bugs have been fixed and 1433 new feature requests were implemented. The KDE community would like to thank everybody who has helped to make this release possible.

 

 

How to install  The  KDE 4.4 in Opensuse 10.2

su -c ‘zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Factory:/Desktop/openSUSE_11.2/ openSUSE 11.2 KDE4 Factory Desktop’

You can set this repository to auto refresh (this is optional).
su -c ‘zypper mr -r openSUSE 11.2 KDE4 Factory Desktop’

Now upgrade to everything in this repository
su -c ‘zypper dup -r openSUSE 11.2 KDE4 Factory Desktop’

This is highly suggested to get all the upgraded community based packages.
Now add the Community Repository:

su -c ‘zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4:/Community/openSUSE_11.2_KDE4_Factory_Desktop/ openSUSE 11.2 KDE4 Factory Community’

Again this option step of making it automatically refresh:
su -c ‘zypper mr -r openSUSE 11.2 KDE4 Factory Community’

Upgrade to everything in this repository
su -c ‘zypper dup -r openSUSE 11.2 KDE4 Factory Community’

For openSUSE 11.0 and 11.1, just replace the 11.2 in all the above commands and you’ll be set.

The above steps could be done in the GUI using YaST and its Repositories Module and Software Installation Modules.

For Kubuntu:
Add the required Kubuntu Beta Repository:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/beta

Update the repository:
sudo apt-get update

Upgrade to the packages in the repository:
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Larry Page is not being completely honest! The manner in which the PRISM program/project works does not need access from company administrators or owners, so called “direct access”; the access to the information is already there. These tech company CEOs take for granted the actual intelligence of most end users of their products. All it takes is a little digging and reading to go from ignorant to informed on these things especially on exactly how the internet works/functions in the U.S.A. I find Larry Page’s remarks just as laughable as Al Gore’s claim to “inventing” the internet/world wide web!

If you, as an end user, are reading this post; I challenge you to research these matters yourself. It really is quite simple with all the “information sites” that exist on the web today ie Wikipedia, & other online encyclopedias that actually list source material, as well as highly respected tech sites and blogs that also list their source material. Be warned: this is only the tip of the iceberg and these tech CEOs know and understand this; they are scrambling in attempt to perform DAMAGE CONTROL to save the company and what little trust thay have left from their products end users/consumers.

Am I a skeptic? I believe someone has to be or needs to be at this point in time! If your not just a little skeptical of the government, tech companies, and the people that are in charge of these agencies and companies; you need to be, even if just a little skeptic. For your own personal protection and security! I know I was a part of this community for over 14 years!
