KDE 4.4 on Windows
March 2, 2010 in News by Alastair Otter
The KDE Project has announced the release of KDE 4.4 packages for Windows, reports OStatic. The packages allow Windows users to install KDE applications such as digiKam, Amarok and Konversation natively on Windows. The developers of KDE say that introducing Windows users to KDE applications is a lot easier than getting them to switch to a Linux distro entirely. Obviously the long term objective is to get users used to open source alternatives before making the switch to an all-Linux desktop.
I tried KDE for windows, I mainly wanted to see the new build of Amarok because for some reason I can’t get any ppas to work with my Kubuntu and I was rather dissapointed. It is either very slow or does not play music (this is for amarok) and installing amarok was kinda weird. I was expecting something like winedoors or kpackageit for windows the installation I found weird. I will leave it at that.
Thankfully Lucid beta is out.
I will probably try that in virtualbox soon.
