[Sheflug] KDE2 and Qt 2.2

[Richard <nospam [at] sheflug.co.uk>]

Dear All

Didn't have much to do tonight so I decided to find out why KDE 1.94
wouldn't work too well on my desktop.

Turns out that I needed Qt 2.2 to make it work properly.  So, I
downloaded it from www.kde.org and started to compile it.  Three hours
later it had finished.  That's on a 450Mhz PC with 128Mb of RAM.  Not
the slowest machine that you can find.  

After starting KDE 1.94 I found that the whole thing is very stable. 
Nothing like the horror stories that I've been getting from all over
the place.  Unfortunately it wouldn't let me use KDE 1 so that meant I
had to put Qt 2.0 back in again from the qt.old directory that I'd
'mv'd' it to.

Look forward to being able to use the finished thing :)  Looks good
with Windowmaker running at the same time.

Thanks
