    Thanks for the link. I want to set local repository for yum first (I have Fedora 8 DVD + update) since my net connection not fast enough and behind proxy. yum can work with proxy though:
    Code:
    export http_proxy=http://proxyaddress:port
    export https_proxy=http://proxyaddress:port
    export ftp_proxy=http://proxyaddress:port
    yum install kde

    [attachment=0:2h4l5y1x]KDE Desktop.jpg[/attachment:2h4l5y1x]

    Minimal KDE desktop:
    Code:
    $ sudo rpm -ivh kdebase-3.5.8-5.fc8.i386.rpm kdebase-libs-3.5.8-5.fc8.i386.rpm kde-settings-3.5-34.fc8.noarch.rpm kde-settings-kdm-3.5-34.fc8.noarch.rpm kde-filesystem-3.92-9.fc8.noarch.rpm htdig-3.2.0b6-12.fc8.i386.rpm lm_sensors-2.10.4-2.fc8.i386.rpm man-1.6e-3.fc7.i386.rpm redhat-menus-8.9.11-1.fc8.noarch.rpm xdg-user-dirs-0.9-1.fc8.i386.rpm fedorainfinity-kdm-theme-1.0.1-1.fc8.noarch.rpm groff-1.18.1.4-10.fc8.i386.rpm
    
    and then open /etc/rc.d/rc.S, comment out '/usr/bin/xinit ...' and add '/usr/sbin/gdm' line:
    Code:
    $ sudo mousepad /etc/rc.d/rc.S
    ...
    #   /usr/bin/xinit -- -br>/dev/null 2>&1 &
       /usr/sbin/gdm
    ...
    
    But KDE Control Center crash! Still investigate the problems.

    Even Control Center crash, we can access style/theme setting using Konqueror. Here my latest KDE desktop using Domino style + NuvoX icon :D
