<answer>
|
|
<!-- This needs a rewrite including informations about the latest version (link to the info page?)-->
|
|
<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>

|
maintain the latest snapshot at all times. Please refer to <ulink
|
|
