tested 4.1.96 earlier, plasma...is sort of improved i think. the colouring doesn't display properly, it also refuses to set a desktop picture, other than that generally seems to be much better. for people looking to use it as a shell at the moment though, i'd suggest 4.1.3, and possibly running litestep over that with the lsplasma theme for the taskbar ( because for some reason, my taskbar in 4.1.3 plasma dissapears all the damn time. and also doesn't allow minimising any non kde apps to it...and the app finder oesn't add non kde apps.)
overall though, it's looking rather nice, thanks guys.

> It's crashing at times, but when I first installed 4.1.3, I couldn't even get it to run to any degree - it would start, and then complain about Desktop:/ and eat the CPU. Now it runs, but when I do certain things - like try to add a widget - it may crash. At least I can show it to co-workers now. Hopefully the 4.2 final release will work out these issues.
