But it's nearly a year now since KDE 4.0 was released? ;-) Also, I was under the impression that KDE 4.2 was released yesterday, that the kde-redhat rpms are built using that code base and that KDE 4.2 is a 'stable' release? (Although quite what constitutes a stable upstream KDE release is lost on me these days.) Unless the 'bugs' are caused by the way the release is being packaged for Fedora, I'm not really sure I understand your, "making it work takes time", comment. > We're indeed working on the Bluetooth issue which is a 4.2 regression. The work is appreciated. Keep at it. Hopefully by a 4.3 release the desktop will be feature complete and "just working". > For the other stuff, was that already broken in 4.1?

I'll try again when KDE 4.2 is in Fedora stable and bz any remaining problems. Regards Clive -- Clive Messer <clive at vacuumtube.org.uk>
