Kubuntu Adivce

[ciento]

Three quick questions......
 
1)  Does anyone use this,  what are the pros and cons over ubuntu
2) Is anyone using the latest 11.04 Version.
3) Has anyone tried the PPC version on Mac, any issues to be aware of ?  Ubuntu seems to work fine on Mac, but any firsthand experience of Kubuntu would be good.
 
Thanks

for PC users only:
11.04 is a trainwreck :hammer:  head on collision when both trains were going backwards, as fast as inept planning and implementation could allow.
(hint: don't build new trains using parts pulled from old wrecked ones)

A good kde distro is Trinity, which is based on 3.5.10 and has continued its developement, now at 3.5.12 and ongoing. KDE 4 is terriible to use and configure, when compared to 3.5.12

bodhi is a good barebones distro, with full access to ubuntu and debian repositories, and PPAs, so
you can add just what you want, free of most bloat. The live CD is less than
400 meg, just a browser, text editor, software installer (synaptic) and E17,
with several themes to choose from when booting.

I must admit, I dont get the hate for KDE 4.x.

Sure when it came out, it was pretty buggy and unstable but today ? I find 4.5 to be freaking awesome

Because their refusal of the most basic updates of 3.5.10, so it was effectively banned as an option for those who wanted it. The antithesis of linux.

Now, go and use KrummyDeadEelephant4xxx to create a tansparent panel, of the size and orientation you choose, and place your icons and elements on it, where YOU want them, instead of where the K family wants them. :roflmao:

Now do the same with Trinity 3.5.12 :rtfm:    (easy money)

When compared to 0sEX, and winxxx, 4.5 and newer versions, may be wonderfully awesome! (us old geezers rezists za change)
