Hi there,
I'm completely new to KDE and i'm also not an experienced linux user. I know the basic commands, i know my way in vi and i know a little shell and python, but commands for installing thing from the terminal, that i don't know.
So, i'm trying to install KDE and i got stuck. My doubt is perhaps very basic but here it goes: i downloaded all the KDE packages from this page http://mac.kde.org/?id=download in order, and i made the simple installation with the mac os installer (it actually opened the packages automatically with the installer). Now i'm supposed to have KDE installed, but the only thing i have is a bunch of documents in /opt/local/shared/applications/kde4 with .desktop termination, like kate.desktop or amarok.desktop. What are these and how am i supposed to open them?

Hi,

The installation packages are very old. You basically have to install them from the command line. You need to go to the website of Fink (http://www.finkproject.org/download/ind ... phpLang=en) or Macports, and follow their instructions for installing.

Then, you need to follow the instructions on this page:
