dumb lil n00b Q about RH/Fedora


i thought i saw it somewhere, but i cant find it.. I want to install kde 3.2.1 on fedora core 1 and have had MINIMAL success with compiling source in general. So, can I use the package under redhat on fedora? i am pretty sure u can, but i have an uncanny knack for botching my system :-) also, does the answer to this question apply to all (or most) programs. thanks.
