Ok, I got Debian working (finally) and I want KDE on here and I happen to like it fully load (KDE games are nice!) but I don't really feel like downloading it all than installing it by hand. Is there any way to make apt-get install everything it can get its grubby little hands on? (I have a source JUST for kde... http://kde.debian.net so I won't be downloading anything that I have no idea what it is)

KDE 2.x is now a part of woody but since woody is considered unstable most people out there who have a need for KDE will be using potato. For *many* reasons KDE is not a part of potato and will never be.
they say KDE will be in the next Debian release? thats awesome! :cool:

There's some useful info at the KDE website.
Look for "Download and Install from Source."
Get the deb equivalents of what is shown on this page. Order is important when compiling the packages.
1) qt-x11-2.xx
2) kdesupport
3) kdelibs
After that any order will do. You can do the first three parts first, and then do the rest later.
