Please keep your replies on list only, i.e. don't include me in the To field.

When you install two versions into separate slots they are simply installed in 
different places on the hard drive. Assuming you are speaking of KDE 3.4 and 
3.5, 3.4 is installed to /usr/kde/3.4 and 3.5 is installed to /usr/kde/3.5. 
If you are using kdm to log in to KDE you can simply choose either KDE 3.4 or 
3.5 each time you log in. It's as simple as that. If that doesn't answer your 
question then please have a look at [1]. And if you are still confused then 
please rephrase your question.
