Hello, I followed this conversation too, and added the apt-line to my sources.list. I had troubles too, but i was using debian for testing to see if I like it (and I doo) so I didn't care about a new installation of debian.
So I formatted my computer, did a new install. By tasksel I only selected X-window system and NOT selected desktop environment. ^^^ Then I added deb http://devel-home.kde.org/~nolden/kde stable main to sources.list. Then I runned apt-get update. After that I did apt-get install kdm and apt installs all necessary packages for KDE 3.1 an it works fine. If you use kword, kspread and so on do apt-get install koffice, you have to install all packages manually, I have bad experiences with dselect, this wants to install kdelibs3, wich conflicts with KDE 3.1 I know it's a strange way to install KDE 3.1 but I tried several times to install KDE 3.1 by the normal way but this didn't succeed. Hope this helps, HTH Willem-Jan Meijer Netherlands Op zaterdag 1 februari 2003 18:29, schreef [EMAIL PROTECTED]: > After doing what you have kindly said, I got the following: > > debian:~# apt-get upgrade -s > Reading Package Lists...
