Anyone tried KDE 4.2 Beta?
Anyone tried KDE 4.2 Beta? I'm thinking of testing out KDE 4.2 if it is better than the current KDE(Mod)4 in the repos.
For every problem, there is a solution that is:
Clean
Simple and most of all...wrong!

I didn't experience crashes when messing with my panels (and i have 3 of them). I assume plasma is crashing? Can you reproduce those crashes? Did you file a bug report (probably upstream)?

Okay. I didn't get any crashes...so yeah. I'm thinking of switching to 4.2 on the day it releases.

Works very well. Only crashed it once with about 30 hours of use. But that could have been an app not KDE4.

Re: Anyone tried KDE 4.2 Beta?
I'm using 4.1.96-1 and am still waiting for my mirror to sync - or is that the latest version?
Anyway, kppp keeps on crashing. Apart from that everything is hunky dory.

Re: Anyone tried KDE 4.2 Beta?
Yep, so it says in your original link 
I have no gripes whatsoever about 4.1.96-1 apart from aforesaid kppp. Anyway, only three days to go until 4.2 proper comes out. I'll be counting the days 'til it hits the repos!
