Kubuntu = Ubuntu + KDE
Ubuntu is a Linux distro based on Debian and uses Gnome as Desktop Manager (GDM), and there is a branch of Ubuntu that uses KDE (KDM) instead called Kubuntu. So today I tried to install KDesktop on Ubuntu, but unfortunately I was not satisfied with it. I think it is too heavy and crashes all the time. May be I was supposed to install Kubuntu in the first place, and may be it's new KDE versions that suck.

What flavour of Linux are you comfortable with? And what desktop environment do you like most, Gnome or KDE?
ReplyDeleteI managed to successfully install Ubuntu on two machines (mine and another at college). I liked Gnome's look and feel and the installation process was a breeze. Just wish I could enable Ubuntu to identify the GigaRAID IT8212 controller that's built-in my motherboard. Otherwise, I'll have to stop using my CD-ROM drive and do with the writer instead. Damn, why didn't I just get a SATA HDD when I had the chance. :$
My favorites are Ubunut (and Gnome), I used RedHat, Mandrake, and Slackware but Ubuntu rulez
ReplyDeleteI use ubuntu too but i'm a kde user
