anyone know how to upgrade the KDE?
what's must i do?

I upgraded from Alioth about two weeks ago by adding to /etc/apt/sources.list:


# KDE 3.5 (not in sarge)
deb http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/kde-3.5.0/ ./
# deb-src http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/kde-3.5.0/ ./


If you type e.g. 'kdebase' in http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages, you see that KDE 3.5.0-2 is already in Debian experimental. There it comes to unstable some day and them upgrading is very easy.

You can try upgrading from experimental:

apt-get install -t experimental kdebase
..but look carefully which packages are to be removed. Upgrading can sometimes be very tricky.

If you are not experienced with upgrading from some special source, so it's better to wait some time and upgrade to new KDE after it comes to unstable Apt repository.
