+<para>Don't worry! Although the use of some Beta software can cause considerable grief, it is unlikely that the installation of KDE will trash your hard disk. In fact, this chapter is designed to guide you through the installation process, so that you can take a look at your new desktop as quickly (and with as little grief) as possible. As with all new Window Manager installs, it is recommended that you back up all your X11-specific configuration files before you begin the install. If you do not know the exact location of them, try all the hidden (<filename>.*</filename>) files in your home folder and the folder <filename>/usr/X11/lib/X11/xdm</filename>. </para>

+
+<para>Using RPMs is the easiest method to get KDE up and running. Just visit your favourite KDE mirror and visit the folder <filename>/pub/kde/stable/distribution/rpm</filename>. There, you can see folders for different operating systems. Currently, the i386, alpha and sparc architectures are supported. The RPM packages can also be found on the Red Hat contrib sites like sunsite.unc.edu or ftp.redhat.com. </para>
+
+<para>The basic system consists of the files <filename>kde-<replaceable>component</replaceable>.<replaceable>architecture</replaceable>.rpm</filename> You need at least tdesupport, tdelibs and tdebase. After getting the base distribution, feel free to download any other RPMs that you think may come in handy. </para>

+<title>Linux: Installing <acronym>DEB</acronym>s for debian</title>
+
+<para>The installation for a Debian system is also rather straightforward. You will only find KDE 2.0 packages for Debian 2.2 (Potato) and 3.0 (Woody). We describe here how to install packages for Debian 2.2, the stable version, since Debian 3.0 is still in development. However, the installation for both versions, is almost identical. The main difference is that KDE is officially included in Debian 3.0 and you do not need to specify any special location to find the deb packages for KDE.</para>
+
+<para>The first step is to tell your system where it can find the deb packages for KDE. A list of locations for the Debian packages is kept on your hard disk in <filename>/etc/apt/sources.list</filename>. You should add to that file the following line: <userinput>http://kde.tdyc.com/ stable kde2</userinput></para>
+
+ 
+<para>Then you have to update your local package database so that your system knows that there are new packages available. Type the following command:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput><command>apt-get</command> <option>update</option></userinput>
+</screen>
+ 
+<para>Finally you should install the KDE base components. This is accomplished by typing:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput><command>apt-get</command> <option>install tdebase</option></userinput>
+</screen>
+ 
+<para>If you want to install other components you should try some, or all of these options:</para>

+
+<para>If you are upgrading from a previous version of KDE you should perform the following steps. First, update file <filename>/etc/apt/sources.list</filename> by changing the line with the location of KDE packages with line: <userinput>http://kde.tdyc.com/ stable kde2</userinput>. Second update your package database:</para>

+
+<para>In order to compile and install KDE properly, you need to have the following items installed on your hard disk: </para>
+
+<itemizedlist>
+<listitem><para>An ANSI-C compiler, <abbrev>e.g.</abbrev> the <abbrev>GNU</abbrev> C compiler. </para></listitem>

+<para>In all cases above, <replaceable>version</replaceable> stands for the current version number. Once you have downloaded all you need, extract these files to <filename>/usr/src</filename>. This process should yield the following folder structure:</para>

+<para>Several options are not required and are only useful as workarounds for known problems (&eg; <option>--disable-FEATURE</option>). Since some are important options, for instance <emphasis>--with-shadow</emphasis>, you should always check the available options.</para>
+
+<para>An important option is <option>--prefix</option>. This option specifies the path where configure should install (for tdesupport and tdelibs) or where to look for libraries (for the other packages). By default, configure will look in <filename>/usr/local/kde</filename> . If you want to install &kde; into <filename>/opt/kde</filename>, you have to use <command>configure <option>--prefix /opt/kde</option></command>.</para>
+
+<para>If you have installed the &Qt; libraries in an uncommon place, for instance in <filename>$HOME/src/qt</filename>, you must use <command>configure <option>--with-qt-dir=$HOME/src/qt</option></command>. By default configure looks in the most common places for &Qt; before it gives up.</para>
+
+<para>If you have problems that you are not able to solve, send a copy of the <filename>config.log</filename> file to the address given in the offending package's <filename>README</filename> file.</para>
+
+<para>You must install KDE in the following order: arts, tdelibs, then the application packages (for example tdebase). All the application packages should only depend on tdelibs, so you can compile them at the same time (if you have a powerful machine).</para>
