4.3.3 brings a lot of bug fixes... update your system if you havent already... :D


KDE 4.3.3 Out Now: Clockwork
Like the ticking of a Swiss watch, every month the KDE team brings you a new release. November's edition of KDE is a bugfix and translation update to KDE 4.3. With the KDE 4 series picking up in popularity, we're happy to encourage even more people to give KDE 4 another spin -- or just upgrade your existing KDE to KDE 4.3.3. As the release only contains bugfixes and translation updates, it will be a safe and pleasant update for everyone. Users around the world will appreciate that KDE 4.3.3 is more completely translated. KDE 4 is already translated into more than 50 languages, with more to come.

Yeh KDE 4.3 is really shaping up.
4.3.0 was really unstable but 4.3.1 was a good step in the right direction.

I've got KDE 4.3.2
How do I upgrade?
Is there another way aside from .tar files...? apt line or something...? I haven't had the time yet to attempt to do it with the .tar file. In fact, I haven't done anything like that yet.

to upgrade to 4.3.4 turn on the backports repository (instructions) (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu), and do
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

I still think KDE is sluggish. Why do the KDE people insist on having the akonadi service as a default.
I will stick with Gnome, less clutter.

In all fairness you can turn it off or uninstall it.

Thank you so much - I've got 4.3.4 now!
It means so much when someone comes to the rescue...
