for those using Debian/ubuntu, whatever, and want to use KDE, but don't like 
the upgrade to KDE4, you now have a choice..
trinity.
If you want to use the repository, just add these lines to your
sources.list file:
deb
http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-builddeps/ubuntu 
lenny main 
deb-src
http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-builddeps/ubuntu 
lenny main 
deb http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/ubuntu
lenny main 
deb-src
http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity/ubuntu lenny
main
 
It does honor any KDEDIRS and XDG_DATA_DIRS settings for users operating
in Kiosk mode like we are.

Another note from Tim:
If you install KDE3 and Trinity side-by-side, remember to select Trinity
from the Sessions menu in KDM before logging in, otherwise you will get
a stock KDE3 session.

Install kdesktop-trinity  kdebase-trinity kdepim-trinity kicker-trinity 
desktop-base-trinity
