Hmm, that is interesting. I was waiting for the 9.10 release because KDE 4.2
wasn't there yet. KDE3 was working pretty well for me and I didn't feel KDE4
was ready for prime time until 4.3.

Once 9.10 was out the upgrader took me straight to that version with no notice
or option to go to 9.04

I guess I didn't think about the LTS releases, I was looking at the KDE
releases...

something to think about....

I know now as men accept the time clock of the wilderness, their lives become
entirely different. It is one of the great compensations of primitive
experience, and when one finally reaches the point where days are governed by
daylight and dark, rather than by schedules, where one eats if hungry and
sleeps when tired, and becomes completely immersed in the ancient rhythms,
then one begins to live. -- Sigurd Olson
