Hello,
I have come to the place where there is a lot I like about the Gnome desktop so I have switched to Gnome. However I had been a long time KDE user until they came out with KDE v4. because I had used KDE for years there are quit a few applications that I like in KDE more than what Gnome has. I do not want to start a flame war so don't start OK that being said I personally cannot stand the new KDE v4 which is the reason I have switched to Gnome. Is there any way to use the older KDE 3.5.10 applications on the newer Ubuntu 8.10? Can I just add some repositories to my Synaptic list of repositories?

Any assistance that you could give would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Robert
