Here are the steps for you (run them as root user): 1) Install a base system without packages, configure it to your liking 2) Execute "portsnap fetch extract" 3) Execute "cd /usr/ports/x11/xorg" and "make install clean" 4) Execute "cd /usr/ports/kde3" and "make install clean" The last two steps will be long (as in: at least several hours), so=20 wait, look at the pretty scrolling text, answer some questions (if any), = and at the end you'll have absolutely *everything* needed to run KDE=20 under X11. Some configuration might be required after the packages are=20 there (e.g. making a file ~/.xinitrc with the line "startkde"). If you're in a hurry, here are the alternate steps: 1) Install a base system without packages, configure it to your liking 2) Execute "pkg_add -r xorg" 3) Execute "pkg_add -r kde3" Don't mix and match the two approaches if you don't know what you're=20 doing, but the end result should be approximately the same. You'll need a (fast) Internet connection for both approaches, so make=20 sure you configure your network in step "1". --------------enig3A7141BCD7CE71360FAD55BA Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFG4SJgldnAQVacBcgRA9+sAKDhUlVxFe42zwzBDbig9DGEpXaO2gCdF4Uw b7mbsZfa5c0D07OnJtWIz7U= =b+Pt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig3A7141BCD7CE71360FAD55BA--
