THAT'S AWESOME! I have Leopard and x11 but no clue how to get kde on x11. Please help me

To make it easy, download macports. After installing create a file in your home directory called ".profile". add these lines to it:

"export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local­/sbin:$PATH" and

"export MANPATH=/opt/local/share/man:$­MANPATH"

in the terminal type:

"sudo port install kde"

this might take awhile...

Add a file called ".xinitrc" to your home directory and in this file add these lines:

"/opt/local/bin/startkde"

then Launch X11.app and it should automatically start KDE.

i tried using fink and it said dev-tools need to be installed. Also installedTHE x11 app from apple. I am running mac os x 10.4.10 intel mac book pro 17 inch.

I've got KDE running on my Mac, mainly for Amarok.

Just wait until KDE 4 is released! KDE can be compiled against the native QT 4.0 libaries and not require X11. Someone has already compiled the Alpha version to be a native Mac app.

How did you do that and can it also work with Gnome apps and the Gnome desktop?
