Because KDE 4 is quite broken right now as we are trying to port the variou=
s=20
libraries and applications to use Qt 4 (and use it correctly).  This isn't =
as=20
simple as just changing method names sometimes, and besides, there is a bit=
=20
of rearchitecting to do as we try to fix things that have shown their age=20
through the KDE 3 lifetime but couldn't be fixed.

Or in other words, expect this kind of brokenness for awhile.  I hear that =
if=20
you run kwin from konsole you'll be able to get your window borders back. =
=20
Not sure about the desktop wallpaper bug.

If you want to run a more stable development version of KDE there's the=20
upcoming KDE 3.5 which could use testing before we release it onto the publ=
ic=20
at large...
