KDE 3.4 has been installed without much of a hitch (yay Gentoo Linux).

I want to thank the KDE team for the awesome

trash can on the kicker. I’ve been waiting for this for three years as part of my quest to make KDE operate similarly to OS X.

Contrary to what a lot of people do, which is to dress up KDE like OS X, I just want things in the same places so that I take a minimal productivity hit moving from one to the other. Having the trash can on the righthand corner of the kicker (like having the close/minimize/maximize buttons in the upper left) helps with that immensely.
