KDE 4 was on par with KDE 3 since about the 4.4 or 4.5 release, a few years ago. I too was a KDE 3, then Trinity, holdout.

KDE 5, last I tried, was still missing some features and had troubles with panel positioning on multi-monitor setups. It is also missing all the little touches that made KDE 3/4 so pleasant to work with, such as Ctrl-U to clear a field (lifted right from Emacs). I stick with KDE 4 on CentOS.



Ctrl-U works, just tried it.


Thanks, I haven't tried KDE 5 in over a year. I might give it another look.
