KDE 3.0.4 works well on Debian and is in my opinion more stable than KDE 2.2. I think you should upgrade if you use your computer mainly as a Desktop. If you use it as a server and use KDE only to fire some xterms. Maybe, you can wait.

Remember that you must first remove completely KDE 2 before installing KDE 3. These faqs have not been updated for the new apt line for KDE 3.0.4. which is for sid : deb http://download.uk.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/3.0.4/Debian/sid ./ (you can change uk for another code country and sid to woody) Charles -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.kde-france.org
