Hello,well i am reluctant to upgrade to Hardy, simply because i have spend ages tweaking my Gutsy installation to get it perfect.
So, can i install the new version of KDE? jsut to give it a try and see what all the fuss is about.

Cheers!

The steps here might work, but I'm not sure if the packages are still being maintained.

That's really strange. This URL is supposed to have the KDE 4.1 packages in it:
http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu

I had this line in my sources.list for gutsy:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu gutsy main

And then changed it for hardy:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu hardy main

Sorry I couldn't be of more help. :(
