Ximian is supported on Woody yet so you're no doubt coming up with the
various conflicts that arise from upgrading whilst keeping the Potato
optimized version of Ximian. I just upgraded to Woody to days ago myself
being quite aware that Ximian wouldn't work quite right. Mostly it worked,
but there were applications that wouldn't launch, etc.

Sorry, but no. When I saw that the full KDE package was supported in the UWA
ftp tree, I thought to myself,"I wonder where KDE is up to?" Without wanting
to offend any of the GNOME faithful, I have to say that KDE 2.2.x is
AMAZING!!! Easy install, exceptionally flexible, simple and intelligent
configuration options, excellent documentation. Without a doubt in my mind,
the best desktop GUI available is free and its called KDE.

Sol
