- hirolau, on 01/27/2009, -5/+76I say this: YES!
- Dongvid, on 01/27/2009, -4/+66Finally! This already makes 4.1 look stale in comparison.
- KhaaL, on 01/27/2009, -4/+61Welcome back to my desktop, beloved KDE ♥

- ruphy, on 01/27/2009, -1/+42Yay! =) This release really rocks out loud!
Congrats to everyone involved! =))) - Heilige, on 01/27/2009, -2/+39Awesome stuff! I really think KDE is where it's at! I also think this will encourage the adoption of Linux.
- Peterix, on 01/27/2009, -2/+37KDE 4.2 - It's hardKore! :D
My current desktop:

- nunopinheiro, on 01/27/2009, -3/+26Its an amazing piece of desktop from an amazing set of people.
- kd420, on 01/27/2009, -2/+25Hey, my name is pretty much in the title lol, maybe this is a sign that I will switch from Gnome. Regardless, I'll definitely be testing this when I get home! I had a bad experience with KDE4, but apparently 4.2 is miles ahead.
- Garciat, on 01/27/2009, -3/+25I despise (K)Ubuntu's default font.
- ill0gical, on 01/27/2009, -3/+21moOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaar!
- arbulus, on 01/27/2009, -0/+17Arch = bloat?
What exactly is your definition of bloat?
Are you one of those cats who has a 2 Ghz dual core machine with a 256 MB graphic card, a 500 GB HDD and 4 GB of RAM and runs Openbox on Gentoo so they can have a "fast" and "lean" system? - cards, on 01/27/2009, -0/+17121662282418.jpg
- skoons, on 01/28/2009, -0/+17KDE 4.0 - for developers to develop widgets and themes. KDE was actually a little angry that Kubuntu was released with KDE 4.0
KDE 4.1 - for casual users. This was the release for people in love with KDE4's ideas and could not wait for it but lacked the feature set. Also started to introduce custom downloadable themes and enough usability that developers could use it full time and come up with ideas.
KDE 4.2 - For the standard end user. The feature set is suppose to be on par with 3.5. - puelocesar, on 01/27/2009, -0/+16Lol, you are evil :P
But KDE 4.2 indeed rocks! - MrViklund, on 01/27/2009, -5/+21KDE 4.x - The future of Linux Desktop!
- RobotBuddha, on 01/27/2009, -0/+15Excellent! I've been using development builds of kde 4.2 for a while now, and they've been easily good enough to wash away the memory of 4.0. There's really only two things I'd like to see still. The k3b port finished, and a port of firefox to the kde framework. The former will get there eventually, and the qt port of the latter should hopefully be enough for me.
- nunopinheiro, on 01/27/2009, -0/+14were do you see that sir?
I'm very tired of this types of remarks, ether we copy mac or we copy vista, but then vista copied mac right, but now windows 7 is coping us and mac copied xerox and next, get over that and try to judge what we ofter instead of looking as a screen shot and shouting "copy" - RobotBuddha, on 01/27/2009, -3/+17Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think suse currently has the most active support for kde.
- harisund, on 01/27/2009, -0/+13The poster never said the title in his name, he said his name is in the title.
- mrsteveman1, on 01/27/2009, -0/+12Neither of you are even IN my book
- jman82s, on 01/27/2009, -1/+13Then change it : )
- Hermmunster, on 01/28/2009, -1/+13KDE 4.x was under design (and you could see demos of the way it looked and would look) before Vista was released and before any beta/alpha was made available to the public.
- MWeather, on 01/27/2009, -0/+12Because the 4.2 RC was released on the 13th.
- inactive, on 01/28/2009, -0/+11KDE 4.2 is a big improvement over 4.1.3. Well done to the developers.
- bluechild, on 01/27/2009, -2/+13I've been waiting for this :D
- RobotBuddha, on 01/27/2009, -0/+11That's the beauty of kde, it should be able to be configured to rip off pretty much anything you want. Plasma is 'really' versatile.
- dualscreenman, on 01/27/2009, -0/+11He could be using Lancelot, which does allow for a custom icon.
- bratterscain, on 01/27/2009, -0/+11You accidentally the whole linux?
- Hobo97, on 01/28/2009, -0/+11What parts specifically do you find to be dated?
- dawndaemon, on 01/27/2009, -1/+111. It does, just not by default. If you want the /desktop with icons/, you can have it.
RMB -> Desktop Settings -> Type -> Folder View
2. Lagging is due to the recording software. - lowtolerance, on 01/27/2009, -2/+12now i've got to reinstall linux...i might wait until the Mint 6.0 KDE community edition comes out next month, though.
- picpak, on 01/27/2009, -0/+10Lemme guess, you're a Linux From Scratch user?
- jadrian, on 01/27/2009, -0/+10I still have a bit of hope that the port of Google Chrome for linux will use Qt.
- feyded, on 01/28/2009, -0/+10For all you Arch users, KDEmod has released their updated binaries as well: http://kdemod.ath.cx/
- RobotBuddha, on 01/27/2009, -0/+9It might be your video drivers. I'm on 4.2 and not seeing any lag with desktop effects enabled.
- diatonic1, on 01/27/2009, -1/+10I came here to say that... I know it can be changed, but for the love of God, KDE team, please replace that hideous font.
- MWeather, on 01/28/2009, -0/+9It's adjustable.
- gcnaddict, on 01/27/2009, -0/+9They were both submitted at the same time and neither user is a power user, so whatever. Luck of the draw.
- jenshik, on 01/27/2009, -1/+10At least it' s not comic sans!
- kragil, on 01/27/2009, -3/+12Great release filled with awesomeness!
I do hope they implement some of Win7 UI enhancements in 4.3 .. I like the window dragging to the sides and the big icon task bar with jump lists.
But those are only minor things .. all in all KDE has so many great new technologies Windows 7 cannot compete on the feature front. - lostpunisher, on 01/27/2009, -5/+13Meh, gnome is still my favorite, but I still get excited every time kde releases their next version. Someday I might switch, I'm just waiting for the time on the tool bar not to look weird. =P
- jadrian, on 01/27/2009, -2/+10Yes openSUSE.
It is amazing in terms of KDE support. They are the distribution with more paid KDE developers. I've also heard good things about Mandriva but haven't tried it in ages. - PinkyTheWinky, on 01/28/2009, -1/+9One of the goals of 4.2 was feature parity with 3.5.
- Kingoftherings, on 01/28/2009, -0/+8Arch has a wonderful repository called KDEmod, it got 4.2 a couple days early, and I just got it last nigh. (Late to the KDEmod party, I know)
Arch has KDE in it's own repos, but KDEmod is supposed to be better. - Anobyl, on 01/27/2009, -2/+10Yeah, OpenSuse is known to have excellent KDE implementation.
- DBeta, on 01/27/2009, -1/+9Compiz has had screen snapping for a long time. I know not everyone can enable it, but if you can, snapping is on by default(in Ubuntu).
- adamroach, on 01/27/2009, -2/+9release early, release often
- Peterix, on 01/27/2009, -0/+7Indeed, it's lancelot. I've been using it for quite a while (compiled from sources).
