"On Wednesday, KDE developer Marijn Kruisselbrink released
packages of KDE 4.2 and KOffice 2.0 beta 6 for Maemo, the
Linux-based software platform that powers Nokia's Internet Tablet
devices.
"A number of Linux desktop environments and custom software
stacks have been packaged for Nokia's Internet Tablet devices by
members of the Maemo community. We have previously looked at nifty
unofficial ports of XFCE and KDE 3.5.
"Kruisselbrink's KDE 4.2 packages allow the user to run the
Plasma desktop shell and full KDE applications within the
conventional Maemo environment. The KOffice packages are relatively
complete but lack the suite's spreadsheet application, which he was
unable to compile."
