Kde 4.3 released

[zevans]

No, wait - how was it working in 4.2 then?! Or did kjots not pull it in under 4.2?

4.3 is beautiful. The past 4.x releases have not run well on my notebook, but 4.3 is fast, stable, and I'm not seeing x-org eating up my CPU. I've been using gnome for the past couple releases, but I'm back to KDE now, and it feels good. Great job guys!

Aha, thanks. There were a load of these kinds of problems eating sqllite earlier in the year, which should up for me in Amarok, but all those seem to have been fixed now. That page implies that Akonadi is ready to go but sqllite isn't, which in turn implies it's all there in the code, just not compiled that way by default.

So, I think I'll compile Akonadi from source, tell it to use sqllite, and as I trigger problems in sqllite I'll report them in launchpad. Thanks for info.

If you're using Amarok, you already have Mysql anyway...If.

Something which I myself I have experienced interesting when comparing different versions of KDE have been how much the applications have grown in size over the years.

One other thing is, speed, of course. It looks like I won't be going for new hardware this year, so a slow and sluggish desktop enviroment don't feel very attractive for myself. At the same time it would be interesting to know how the desktop enviroment can use better hardware efficiently.

So according to kde.org you can have different plasmoids on different desktops, but I haven't figured out how to do that. Anyone know how?

Google is your friend.

Oh come on, that was the first result.

Looks like it's not exactly possible yet.

Yes, and 11 months out of date

I think this might be what RiceMonster is asking for:
