一些 KDE 趣闻和历史
======
> 当我们回顾过去,发现了一些有点“酷”的 KDE 趣闻。如下。
![](https://img.linux.net.cn/data/attachment/album/202202/23/193047v98lqj2mja9asvmj.jpg)
KDE 有很长的历史。它是如何被构思、发展并成为所有用户群的 “首选” 桌面的赢家的呢?在这篇文章中,我们将介绍一些你可能不知道的 KDE 的趣闻。了解一下也很有趣。
### KDE 趣闻和历史
#### 缘起
KDE 是由 [Matthias Ettrich][1] 在 20 多年前创建的。其主要动机是创建一个易于使用的桌面,来替代 <ruby>[通用桌面环境][2]<rt>Common Desktop Environment</rt></ruby>CDE。其背后的想法是一个简单的桌面使用起来很有趣易于配置且功能强大。于是KDE<ruby>酷桌面环境<rt>Kool Desktop Environment</rt></ruby>)就诞生了。你会注意到这是对 CDE 的双关!名字中的 “Kool” 后来被去掉了,最终变成了 “K 桌面环境”,即 KDE。
#### 第一次出现
Matthias 的 KDE 项目正式公告今天 [仍然存在][3] 在 Google 群组的 de.comp.os.linux.miscUsenet上。如下
![KDE 的首个公告][4]
今天,当读到上面的想法,以及他对 KDE 是那么有远见真有点超现实。就这样KDE Plasma 今天已经渗透到了所有的设备中:笔记本电脑、台式机、游戏机、手机。这的确很了不起。
#### 第一行代码
第一行代码是由 Matthias 为窗口管理器 kwm 和面板 kpanel 写的。KDE 的 KConfig 类成为这个神奇的桌面的第一个库。
#### Qt 许可证的麻烦
在此期间,在 Usenet 论坛上,许多人反对用来开发 KDE 的 Qt 的许可证。因此Matthias 和团队在 1997 年 2 月飞往奥斯陆,在 KDE 和 Trolltech当时 Qt 基金会的所有者)之间签署了一份基金会协议。这保证了 [Qt 的永久免费使用][5]。
在最初的日子里,不管你信不信,都非常需要钱来维持开发工作的进行。团队从 O'Reilly、SUSE、Trolltech 收到了慷慨的捐赠。
#### KDE 1.0 - 第一个版本
被称为 [KDE One][6] 的第一次开发者会议,组织于 1997 年的八、九月间,它讨论了 KDE 第一个版本的愿景、未来和路线图。而这最终在 1998 年 7 月 12 日带来了 KDE 1.0 首次发布。
KDE 1.0 是建立在 Qt 1.0 之上的,主要是用 C++ 编写的。在我看来,它今天看起来仍然令人惊叹。你可以想象一下,在用户界面、用户交互、以及最重要的 —— 为大众提供一个完美的 Linux 桌面方面,这个愿景是多么先进。
![K 桌面环境 1.0][7]
#### KDE 2.0
2000 年 10 月 23 日 KDE 2.0 发布。它首次引入了一套新的应用程序,包括 Konqueror 网页浏览器、KOffice、主题支持、KParts 等。
#### 最初获得的奖项
2001 年 8 月 29 日KDE 在 <ruby>Linux 世界博览会<rt>LinuxWorldExpo</rt></ruby> 被评为“最佳开源项目”,并获得“开源产品卓越奖”。
2009 年 7 月 20 日,其开发仓库 SVN 中的源代码抵达了 [第一百万次提交][9]。这的确是一个开源项目的里程碑,它为充满希望的未来铺平了道路。
![KDE 源代码中的第 100 万次提交片段][10]
#### 快进到 Plasma 5.0
<ruby>KDE 软件合集<rt>KDE Software Compilation</rt></ruby>一直使用到 KDE 4.0。在下一个 Plasma 5.0 版本中,它被分割成三个独立的项目:<ruby>KDE 框架<rt>KDE Framework</rt></ruby>、KDE Plasma 和 <ruby>KDE 应用<rt>KDE Applications</rt></ruby>。这有助于 KDE Plasma 桌面本身独立于与 KDE 框架、KDE 应用的发布节奏。这种模块化的方法帮助团队分别保持整个生态系统的质量和进度。
#### <ruby>KDE 女性<rt>KDE Woman</rt></ruby>
KDE 社区的女性小组 [KDE 女性][11] 创建于 2001 年 3 月,目标是增加自由软件社区的女性人数,特别是在 KDE这包括开发、文档和测试等领域。
#### KDE 吉祥物
KDE 的官方吉祥物是 <ruby>[康奇][12]<rt>Konqi</rt></ruby>,它是一条可爱的小龙,它的意思是 “<ruby>征服者康奇<rt>Konqi the Konqueror</rt></ruby>”(也是其浏览器 Konqueror 的昵称。Katie 是 Konqi 的女朋友,也是 KDE 项目的官方吉祥物。
> Konqi 是<ruby>科迪山谷<rt>KDEValley</rt></ruby>的在任大使。它善于建造就像它善于破坏一样,而当事情变得越加复杂时,它的爬行动物大脑就混乱了。它在<ruby>弗洛斯兰<rt>Flossland</rt></ruby>(自由及开源软件大陆)各地旅行,在各个龙族殖民地之间建立联系。它还会从<ruby>泼泛申瑙海<rt>Professional Ocean</rt></ruby>(专业之海)传信到对面的<ruby>尤思兰德<rt>Userland</rt></ruby>(用户大陆)。它有时也会做这样的梦,梦见自己成为一只强壮的大龙。这是它过去的生活吗?
>
> —— 关于 Konqi 的官方描述
![Konqi - 官方 KDE 吉祥物][13]
#### KDE 走向更多设备和充满希望的未来的旅程
多年来KDE Plasma 成为各种硬件的首选桌面。2016 年KDE 与一家西班牙笔记本电脑公司合作,推出了 [KDE Slimbook][14],它是一款安装了 KDE Neon 发行版的超极本,带有 KDE Plasma预装了 KDE 应用程序。可以从他们的网站上购买。
Linux 移动设备先锋 Pine64 在 2020 年推出了 [PinePhone KDE 版][15],它带有 KDE Plasma 移动版。
Valve 公司宣布他们的手持游戏机 Steam Deck 采用了 [KDE Plasma][16],运行于 [Arch Linux][17] 之上。
![Slimbook 1][18]
### 结语
那么,就写到这里吧。这是一些你可能不知道的 KDE 的趣闻。从 KDE 1.0 的那一天起,到今天,它出现在一个简单而强大的由 KDE 驱动的手持游戏设备里这确实是一个漫长而多彩的旅程。我相信在未来的日子里KDE 生态系统一定会发生更多这样令人激动的事件。
你还知道没有在这里列出的 KDE 趣闻吗?请在下面的评论栏里告诉我。

Interesting KDE Facts and Trivia that You Should Know About
======
WE LOOKED BACK IN TIME AND FOUND OUT SOME “KOOL” KDE FACTS AND TRIVIA.
HERE IT IS.
The KDE has a long history. How it was conceptualized, progressed and became a winner as a “go-to” desktop for all user base. In this post, we give you some interesting facts and trivia of KDE that you may be not aware of. And its good to know.
### KDE Facts and Trivia
#### The Beginning
KDE was created by [Matthias Ettrich][1] 20+ years ago. The main driving force was to create an easy to use desktop alternative to the [Common Desktop Environment (CDE)][2]. The idea was a simple desktop, fun to use, easy to configure and powerful. And KDE aka Kool Desktop Environment is born. You can notice the pun intended to CDE!. The “Kool” in the name is dropped, and eventually it became the “K Desktop Environment” aka KDE.
#### First Appearance
The official announcement of KDE Project by Matthias [still live][3] in Google Groups today at de.comp.os.linux.misc (Usenet). See below.
![KDE Facts and Trivia The First Announcement][4]
Today, it is surreal to read the above idea and how much vision he had about KDE. And with that, where KDE Plasma is today, penetrating all the devices Laptops, desktops, Game consoles, mobile phones. It is remarkable, indeed.
#### First Code
The first code was written by Matthias for the window manager “kwm” and panel “kpanel”. The KConfig class of KDE becomes the first library written of this amazing desktop.
#### Trouble with Qt License
During that time, in Usenet boards, many opposed the Qt license on which KDE is being developed. Hence, Matthias and team fly to Oslo in February 1997 and a foundation agreement is signed between KDE and Trolltech (then owner of Qt foundation). This guarantees the [eternal free availability of Qt][5].
During the initial days, believe it or not, the money was very much needed to keep the development effort on going. The generous donations received by the team from OReilly, SUSE, Trolltech.
#### KDE 1.0 The First Release
The first developer conference called [“KDE One”][6] organized in August/September 1997 to discuss the vision, future and roadmap of the first KDE release. And that resulted in the first ever release of KDE 1.0 on 12th July 1998.
The KDE 1.0 is built on Qt 1.0 and written mostly in C++. In my opinion, it still looks stunning today. You can imagine, how advanced the vision was in terms of UI, user interaction and most importantly a perfect Linux desktop for the masses.
![K Desktop Environment 1.0][7]
#### KDE 2.0
On October 23, 2000 KDE 2.0 is released. It introduced a set of new applications for the first time that included Konqueror web browser, KOffice, Theme support, KParts, etc.
#### Initial Awards
On August 29, 2001 KDE Awarded as “Best Open Source Project” at LinuxWorldExpo and receives the “Open Source Product Excellence” award.
[][8]
SEE ALSO:   KaOS - Lean KDE Distribution Brings Latest Release
The [one millionth commit][9] has been made on the source code in the SVN On July 20, 2009. It was indeed a milestone for an open source project, paving the way for a promising future.
![Snippet of the Millionth Commit in KDE Source Code][10]
#### Fast Forward to Plasma 5.0
The KDE Software Compilation was used until KDE 4.0. It is split into three independent projects KDE Framework, KDE Plasma and KDE Applications in the next Plasma 5.0 release. This helps the KDE Plasma desktop itself independent of the release standpoint with KDE Framework and KDE Applications. This modular approach helped the team to maintain the quality and progress of the entire ecosystem separately.
#### KDE Woman
The KDE Communitys Woman group [“KDE Women”][11] was created in March 2001 with a goal to increase women headcounts in free software communities, specially in KDE across development, documentation and testing.
#### KDE Mascots
KDEs official mascot is [Konqi][12] which is a nice little friendly dragon. It means Konqi the Konqueror. Katie is Konqis girlfriend and official mascot for KDE Project.
> Konqi is the current ambassador of KDEValley. He is good at building things as well as breaking things, and his reptilian brain cannot keep things tracked when they get really complicated. He travels around Flossland to establish connections between dragon colonies. He also brings messages to Userland across the Professional Ocean. He sometimes has these dreams of being a powerful big dragon, too. Was it his past life?
>
> Official description about Konqi
![Konqi The Official KDE Mascot][13]
#### KDEs journey to more devices and a promising future
Over the years, KDE Plasma became the choice of preferred desktop for a wide range of hardware. In 2016 KDE partnered with a Spanish laptop company and launched KDE Slimbook. [KDE Slimbook][14] is an Ultrabook with KDE Neon Edition featuring KDE Plasma, KDE Application pre-installed. It can be purchased from their website.
Linux mobile pioneer Pine64 launched [PinePhone KDE Edition][15] on 2020 which features KDE Plasma Mobile edition.
Valve corporation announced their handheld gaming console Steam Deck with [KDE Plasma][16] running on [Arch Linux][17].
![Slimbook 1][18]
### Wrapping Up
So, thats about it. Some interesting facts and trivia of KDE which you may be not aware of. From the day of KDE 1.0 to today in a simple yet powerful handheld gaming device that is powered by KDE. A long and eventful journey, indeed. Im sure, many more such exiting events are bound to happen in coming days with KDE ecosystem.
Do you know any interesting KDE facts that are not listed here? Let me know in the comment box below.
