Well it depends on whether you are running stable, testing or unstable. I don't use KDE so I don't know the specifics, but in general if you run stable and want a newer version of something it is best to look for a backport. Go to www.apt-get.org and do a search for KDE. Then put the relevant source in your /etc/apt/sources.list. If you can't find a backport get the relevant source packages from unstable and backport them yourself (have a look at the apt-howo). Ah... you asked for a way to edit; um, perhaps a text editor!? eg emacs, jed, zile, nano, vim, joe, vigor... the list is endless. > Suppose I could just install Knoppix but that would be to easy.

I seriously doubt that installing Knoppix is a solution.
