I knew this all along, but I still have a question.
Is there any hope of getting the digital clock in KDE 4.X
that looked and worked beautifully in KDE 3.5.X?
The new KDE clock does not impress me :(
I even wanted to look for KDE-Look to get the digital clock
in Gnome, but I cannot find any places where to find the
code. I can compile it, I do not care if an rpm exists or
not :)
I would like to rally KDE fans across to ask for the
Digital clock. The new clock works but is not what many
users used to KDE 3.5.X like.
Otherwise, to run KDE 3.5.X and still run Fedora will be
Fedora 8/7 or LiveCD that does not get any updates.
Regards,
Antonio
