KDE 3.2/3.3 and SUSE 9.0

I've not done it with Suse, but I updated from 3.2.4 to 3.3 under FC2 
using the KDE-Redhat packages. Works OK. Some loss of system stability 
occured, though. I'd recommend waiting a week or two for KDE 3.3.1 to 
get released. It was supposed to have been tagged for release this past 
weekend.

Regards,
Tim
