I've got this in my sources.list :

# See sources.list(5) for more information, especialy
# Remember that you can only use http, ftp or file URIs
# CDROMs are managed through the apt-cdrom tool.
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US testing/non-US main contrib 
non-free
deb http://security.debian.org stable/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US unstable/non-US main contrib 
non-free
deb http://www.logidee.com/tools/ packages/
deb-src http://www.logidee.com/tools/ packages/

and this in a file /etc/apt/preferences :

Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 777

Package: *
Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 333

I made a "apt-get -t unstable <package-kde2.2> for all the packages I wanted 
to install. The file "preferences"  prevent to upgrade all my system to 
unstable since apt first go in testing to fetch the package. Everything is 
working fine.
