Substituting KDE version 3 for KDE in CentOS 6.2.


I would like to use the latest release of CentOS which is 6.2 and I know that the install can contain both the Gnome and KDE desktops.

The current KDE release in CentOS version 6.2 is version 4.

My current CentOS system is 5.3 and I’m using KDE version 3 and really like it. Gnome is not my choice.

So, my questions is how can I install the 6.2 CentOS version and get KDE version 3?

Any specifics will be appreciated.

Thanks

A lot of us would like to see KDE 3.5.10 brought back from the grave, but not likely, very unfortunately.
This group is giving it a try and have had some success,

The Trinity Project. You might take a look.
