If you're dead set on Woody, I'm afraid I can't help you, but if you're
looking to get a current KDE presumably you're interested in a desktop,
so why woody? You might be better off with sarge, or one of the Debian
derivatives, such as Ubuntu (or ITS derivative, kubuntu, which is KDE
focussed - ubuntu uses gnome by default)
