LinuxGazette: Upgrading SUSE Linux to KDE 3.3
=============================================

   There's an old joke about how a burgler makes a cake. The recipe
begins "To bake a cake, first steal two eggs". Of course, if you really
don't want to do any baking in the first place, and all you really
wanted was a simple pre-packaged cupcake, all this recipe stuff (not to
mention hunting down the different ingredients needed) may be more
trouble than it's worth. Occasionally, that's been my experience
migrating from Windows to Linux. One such occasion has been my recent
attempt to upgrade KDE from version 3.1 to 3.3. Only in this case, the
instructions were: "To install KDE, first find one recipe". Read more in
 this month's issue [http://linuxgazette.net/106/brown.html] of
