As nice as that sounds.... pretty much all app developers not to mention
the KDE team has abandoned all support, updates, etc for KDE 3.5. Which
means even if you DID manage to get KDE 3.5, not only would that be
unsupported, but pretty much all of your KDE apps as well.
Not recommended. KDE 3.5 is dead.
Is KDE 4 ready? Well.... it's evolving. Takes a bit of getting used
to. It's different.
IMHO, it's best to look at KDE 3.5 as a FOSS project that died and KDE 4
is what many of the former KDE 3.5 users are switching to. Of course,
many switched to Gnome... and sadly in the case of openSUSE in
particular, many went running to Ubuntu (some ran and came back though).
