KDE is not in their product updates yet. You need to go to
ftp://ftp.yellowdoglinux.com/pub/Linux/distributions/yellowdog/software/kde-2.2.1

and download all of the *.rpms. I tried to do the rpm -Uvh *.rpm and
it worked, but konqueuror would not start up for me. What I ended up doing
was rpm -e all of the rpms I just installed (note do not use the full name,
i.e. use rpm -e kdenetwork-ppp and NOT rpm -e kdenetwork-ppp-2.2.1-1a.ppc.rpm)
The second time I did the rpm -Uvh *.rpm konqueror worked for me. I haven't
had any problems, and find that things are more stable than kde-2.1.
