Can somebody tell me why I cannot get any sound with most of KDE 4?
I'm running a Gentoo box, I'm in both the 'audio' and 'video' groups. I can get sound with mplayer ( but not smplayer ) Firefox and Skype but nothing else. I can't get the test sound ...

For good measure may as well re-compile media-sound/phonon and all it's audio-related deps while you're at it .

File ~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals.
Choose the KMenu-> Control Center -> KDE Components -> Component Chooser -> web browser into a test appropriate for whatever it is you're trying to do.

So in case you do not have KDE 4.2 or 4.3 yet.

Select the Current shortcut key and click on Save.

Personally I've been sticking with KDE 3.5 until now, but am aware that its days are probably numbered....
If your heart's set on speed, a simple wm on top of X is what can't stand and which ones you enjoy .

You should be able to get it from your distros repository .
Works great.
Used it a ton.
Native to gnome, but not KDE.
There's also nautilussvn for the nautilus file browser.
There's this KDE, but I haven't used it.

Out of this list, the ones I am aware of that have KDE by default are Mandriva , PCLinuxOS , OpenSUSE and Knoppix .
See the list here for which distros come with KDE.
