standard woody is 2.2.2, nothing wrong.

point your repository to kde.org, they have the latest. However, be prepared to see depedency hell as Xebian is a skewed woody. It may or may not work.

Another issue is, is 64M RAM enough for KDE ?

I'm guessing you'd have to change your /etc/apt/sources.list file (or something like that).  I'm not sure which repository to be using with Xebian, but I'm assuming you could use the official US debian repositories.  Also make sure to run apt-get update.

my question is why the hell did this guy base xebain on debian stable, its completely ass. its not ok to be running an ugly ass v2.2.2 of kde when 3.3 is out. I tried changing my sources, that dont work, pointed to all the Unstable servers and followed a tut, that didnt work neither. debian is a peice of shit. If gentoox could mount my drive, i wouldnt be going through so much trouble. i dont mean to complain. No one hear cares ne way. No one helps when you ask a question here. why is that?
