KDE 4.1 across Linux distributions
,----[ Quote ]
| There are three major Linux families: Debian, Red Hat/Fedora, and
| SuSE/OpenSuSE. There’s a great family tree here. Red Hat (by Red Hat) and
| SuSE (by Novell) are non-free distributions aimed at enterprises. Fedora and
| OpenSuSE are their free, open source offerings. Debian is a free open source
| distribution. Most other Linux offerings are derivatives of these three
| families at some level. There are exceptions, of course, like Gentoo, but I’m
| not building a catalog here. My point is simply that if you stay within a
| major family, you’ll find more similarities than differences. Wander outside
| a family, the learning curve grows significantly.

| In the end, I think that KDE 4.1 is simply too imature to allow distribution
| creators to do much with it. It still lacks the basic configurability and
| flexibility of KDE 3.5.10 and even Gnome 2.24. Perhaps as KDE 4.x matures,
| distributions will be able to better differentiate their KDE implementations.
| In the meantime, I translate statements about the superiority of particular
| KDE 4.1 implementations as really being declarations of personal preferences
| for the underlying distribution family. Fair enough.

| The aforementioned Plasma feature now works without a hitch, and ‘Plasmoids’
| (Plasma applets) can be added, removed, scaled and rotated at will. The
| taskbar has had many improvements too, and its width and position can now be
| adjusted.
