Just compile/install the port, it works fine. You might want to compile qt2.2 
as well (before kde). I wouldn't use snapshots from the kde website. Get 
lesstif before compiling if you want Netscape plugins to work with Konqueror. 
If you want to be able to run java applets as well, you can install a jdk 
before or afterwards (the 1.2.2beta works well although it takes long to 
download and compile all pieces).

Boris: I really have no idea why anyone would have gnome prevail over kde 
because of stability issues, I *really* don't. Don't like the look, don't 
like the apps, fine... but don't tell me its so very unstable, thats nonsense.

I think most of the debugging code has been taken out now, I don't find it 
slow at all. Also, I expect a kde2.01 port pretty soon (kde2.01 has mainly 
bugfixes).

Best regards,

Danny
