1. replace "stable" for "testing" on /etc/apt/sources.list (*optional, many people would recommend against this for a newbie). 2. apt-get update (Proceed to 2.1 if you DID change stable for testing else go to 3.) 2.1 apt-get dist-upgrade 2.2 apt-get install linux-image-2.6.16-1-386 (686 if it applies and 2.3 apt-get install remove --purge hotplug ( 2.4 apt-get install udev 2.5 reboot and proceed to 3. 3. apt-get install kde x-window-system-core This should get you going, the hardest thing will be X configuration. Don't know any good docs about configuring X maybe someone else can provide help with this and there's always google...
