Either should work. PyKDE only works with sip/PyQt 3.5 at the 
moment. If you don't have a specific requirement for PyKDE, I'd 
recommend going with 3.6 and waiting for a compatible PyKDE 
release.

Phil and/or Detlev will have to answer these for you.

Assuming you have Qt>= 3.0 installed (which would be the case for 
Mandrake 9.1 by default), any version of KDE up to and including 
3.1.1 should work. 

Support for sip/PyQt 3.6 and KDE 3.1.2 are in the works, but it 
isn't possible to estimate a release date at the moment.
