| ==== Using Project Neon ====
| |
|
| |
| Project neon will install the latest version of KDE *alongside* your current installation.
| |
| This has the advantage that your main system is not upgraded, but does require a significant more amount of disk space.
| |
|
| |
| Note that project neon runs with a different KDE config directory so your settings will not be transferred, this means original settings will not be affected.
| |
|
| |
| =====Installation=====
| |
| First add the project neon repository:
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| sudo add-apt-repository ppa:neon/ppa
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
|
| |
| Then upgrade apts list of packages
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| sudo apt-get update
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
|
| |
| Finally install project neon:
| |
| <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
| |
| sudo apt-get install project-neon-all
| |
| </syntaxhighlight>
| |
|
| |
| =====Running=====
| |
|
| |
| When at your login screen, click the blue arrow to select your Session, here select "Project Neon".
| |
| To revert back to your original stable KDE setup, select "KDE Plasma Workspace" at the login screen.
| |
|
| |
| == Compiling the sources ==
| |
|
| |
| ===Compiling a single application against your KDE 4.8 installation===
| |
|
| |
| You need the Qt (>= 4.7) and kdelibs (4.8) development packages. Then follow:<br /> http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Building_An_Existing_Application
