(MoC) Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 What we really need is for KDE to be implemented as an explorer replacement. I have done that (run KDE apps) even when guides were not around. It is fairly simple to get KDE apps running on another OS. Let me see the whole KDE running on a mac or PC as a browser replacement. But overall, Kudos to them, at least now you don't have to spend night and day on getting them to work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alessandro17 Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 I haven't posted this for a reason: because the Windows installer is of alpha quality (basically it didn't work at all for me) and the download can take a day even with a very fast connection.

Ayanami Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 I was gonna say...you mean Mr. Linux himself missed something big like this? To be honest, I can't see a reason to run Linux apps like that on a PC or a Mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konami® Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 To be honest, I can't see a reason to run Linux apps like that on a PC or a Mac. I agree on the mac version, we don't need a desktop environment like that in OS X or at least in Leopard, if we are talking older versions like OS X 10.1 or 10.2 it may work, but Tiger and Leopard are excellent and state-of-art desktop environment.

industrie13 Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 I agree on the mac version, we don't need a desktop environment like that in OS X or at least in Leopard, if we are talking older versions like OS X 10.1 or 10.2 it may work, but Tiger and Leopard are excellent and state-of-art desktop environment. KDE/Mac isn't meant to replace the existing desktop, instead of it will enable you to run KDE apps on Mac natively ... and there are a lot good ones out there.

SDRacer48 Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 If only this was available for Gnome? Not particularly found of KDE myself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 I did this with KDE 3.5 and Cygwin on Windows a while back. Wasn't that difficult, just took a while.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
