We would like to upgrade our linux desktops from Opensuse 10.2 to Opensuse 11.2. Currently we are using KDE 3.5 and setting KDEHOME to $HOME/.kde_3.5 and modifying kdeglobals [PATHS] to point to a<br>different desktop and trash folder<br>
<br>kdeglobals entry<br><br>[Paths]<br>Desktop=$HOME/.kde_3.5/Desktop_3.5<br>Trash=$HOME/.kde_3.5/Trash<br><br>Since it appears that KDE 4 is using $HOME/.kde4, I figured that none of the configuration files would overwrite each other and each desktop could run independently -<br>
what I mean is that I could login to a box running Opensuse 11.2 and Kde 4.3 and everything would work and then login to the new box with Opensuse 10.2 and Kde 3.5<br>and none of the configuration files would clash.<br><br>
After using the Opensuse 11.2 box with KDE 4, I went to login to my old box and it would not log in and apparently the Kde 4 configuration files had overwritten <br>some of the Kde 3.5 files and I couldn't get into the old desktop. Please note that when running Opensuse 11.2, I make sure the KDEHOME variable is NOT set (I don't know if Kde 4 uses that value anyways).<br>
<br>Any help with this configuration issue would be appreciated.<br><br>Bernie <br>
