I get way to excited about new ROM releases      .   That being said...  WOOHOO!  Firefox KDE supertux...

Has anyone else had problems like rip's ?  I've got the ROM on a CF card ready to go...

Update: I couldn't wait.  I tried it on my C1000...  Works great.  Now all I need is a KDE install tutorial.

[MONVMENTVM]

I'm looking forward to see the release notes.

NICE WORK!

I've just install the whole KDE !!
This is incredible... everything (almost) is there...
It is posible to configure the desktop in the same way as with the laptop.
Now, really, our zauruses are real small, usable, wonderful handtops!!
Thanks a lot. !!

So may I ask how much space does KDE 3.5 take?  Is it possible to install it to the main memory?  
Also would it be ok if installed in SD as it's slower than CF?
Thanks!

Thanks for the new release.  I've put it on my 860.

Is the Tasks Applet new?  It helps switch between active tasks, but only shows the tasks on the current desktop, and is only available on the first desktop, because the task bar still doesn't work on subesquent desktops (even though maximised windows leave a space for it).

The Package Manager has the default feed "cacko-unstable http://mirror1.pdaxrom.org/rc8/feed" which doesn't work.

I presume mounting the internal flash partitions with noatime is new.  Why does mount report /dev/mtdblock/3 as being mounted at /home and /mnt/user?  Is the advice in the "documentation" to partition at 50MB correct?

no

Why does mount report /dev/mtdblock/3 as being mounted at /home and /mnt/user?

so that the gui package manager see /mnt/user as a partition.

Root partition size does not matter that much, just take care not to install everything in /.

[gromituk]

Thanks very much for that, pgas.  I think I understand the Z's memory config for the first time.  I too am interested in knowing the answer to the KDE question!

KDE (never tried myself):
I suppose you need to install kde-base at least

https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=12702

post#10:
just "startx" - to start the default window manager
Then in an "aterm" : "startkde"

post#4:
for start on default (that will init kde right) from clean console:

ln -sf /usr/lib/kde/bin/startkde ~/.xinitrc
startx

maybe have a look at post #15 also

I failed to install KDE in a 128M SD card - not enough space!

Sorry for the delay in answering.
I have installed the packages for kdebase, kdepim and the libaries. So the whole KDE. I installed at the same time "octave" and "vim" and some other minors. I looked at space in SD before and after and it was around 250-300 Mb.
It runs very well althought some applications (konqueror, kate...), takes its time. In fact, konqueror no more than mozilla; around 45 sc. on the 6000 at 400 Mh. Once on the screen, it seems to me a little bit quicker.  
My opinion is that it should be installed on SD. It takes a little while to install but afterwards everything is o.k.
Pgas, I don't recommend to launch the X's in the usual way and the run "startkde". I have tried as a variant but there is a mixture of windows from openbox or icewm and the K's.
I suggest for those using KDE and also Matchbox or Rox or any other to write a few short scripts to launch one or the   other. Someting like:

rm .xinitrc
ln -s /usr/bin/mbsession .xinitrc
startx
 
and call it "mbstart". Then: "chmod +x mbstart" and  "ln -s mbstart /usr/bin/mbstart"  You see the idea....
The same for "kdestart" and any other wanted.
I used "ksnapshot" to obtain the simple jpg attached.
