Hi Jonathan,
Was nice to meet yourself, Brett, Peter and Jurgen the other evening. I had a good time and was prompted to try out ubuntu - splendid distro, excellent hardware detection & setup, great in everyway - as long as you like GNOME !!!
It is very GNOME-centric and I've been spoilt by kde a bit. Call me shallow if you want.
Look forward to our next meeting - hope more of you can make it next time, Luke.
Welcome to the group Luke. I suspect Ubuntu, being debian based, has problems with the QT licence (KDE is written using the QT widget set). There is no reason why you cannot download a kde binary, in deb, rpm or tgz format, and install kde.
