|

<para>The easiest way to get &tde; is to install a &Linux; distribution or another UNIX-like OS that ships with &tde;.
|
||||
You can find an up-to-date list of distributions that ship
|
||||
with &tde; <ulink url="http://www.kde.org/download/distributions.php">here</ulink>. For alternative methods of
|
||||
trying &tde; that do not require you to be running &Linux;, please see
|
||||
<ulink url="http://kde.org/try_kde">Try &tde;</ulink></para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>The main distribution site for &tde; is
|
||||
<ulink url="ftp://ftp.kde.org/">ftp.kde.org</ulink>. However, this site is
|
||||
often under heavy load, so you might prefer to use
|
||||
<ulink url="http://download.kde.org/">download.kde.org</ulink> which automatically
|
||||
redirects you to the mirror nearest to you.
|
||||
You can also have a look at the list of <ulink url="http://www.kde.org/ftpmirrors.html"> &tde; mirror sites</ulink>.</para>

<question>

<para>Binary packages are not available for my distro. What do I do?</para>
|
||||
</question>
|
||||
<answer>
|
||||
<para>That is always a challenging situation. Are there skilled packagers who
|
||||
might help? If you are skilled in compiling software from sources, source
|
||||
tarballs are available for each TDE release (http://www.trinitydesktop.org/releases.php).
|
||||
The development version can also be built from our GIT source tree. Use the forums
|
||||
or mailing lists to contact packagers to obtain copies of their build scripts
|
||||
that can be massaged to fit your distro.</para>

<question id="where-to-get-qt">
|

<para>Where do I get &Qt;?</para>
|

</question>
|
||||
<answer>
|
||||
<para>&Qt; is a product of the Norwegian company Trolltech. The version
|
||||
upon which TDE is based no longer is actively maintained by Trolltech.
|
||||
Maintenance is handled by the TDE developers. Get the latest &Qt; version
|
||||
from the TDE GIT repository at
|
||||
<ulink url="http://git.trinitydesktop.org/">http://git.trinitydesktop.org/</ulink>.</para>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
With most &Linux; distributions, this version of &Qt; no longer is
|
||||
included or maintained and must be obtained from the TDE repositories. Because
|
||||
this version of &Qt; is now maintained exclusively to support TDE, the version supported
|
||||
by TDE developers is not backwards compatible with the original version from Trolltech.</para>
