Comments on: Kubuntu till 8.04… http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/10/31/kubuntu-till-804/ Enhancing your Ubuntu experience! Thu, 02 Feb 2012 10:29:43 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Conor http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/10/31/kubuntu-till-804/#comment-2954 Conor Fri, 02 Nov 2007 16:03:29 +0000 http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/?p=494#comment-2954 Good to see all the comment love lately! Figured I'd say hi, too, and congratulate you on the blog. It definitely is a solid one to read. I've also decided to take another crack at Kubuntu this time around, and I've decided that while the setup time is much, much greater than that of Ubuntu (I should really be talking in terms of KDE and GNOME, I guess), once you invest the time, it really is worth it. For instance, it has bothered me for so long that I can't set different sides of my Beryl cube to have different desktop pictures in GNOME. KDE understands me!

I tried out with Kubuntu and I disliked it for some reasons because of bugs. I am still impressed with it but hopefully next release Kubuntu 8.04 LTS with KDE 4.0 will run smoothly on my laptop. I am using Ubuntu 7.10 at home on my desktop computer and I love it so much! I just think all operating systems with LINUX are wonderful but I am very lousy at programming. :-) I am looking forward for KDE 4.0! I have to using Windows & Internet explorer at work everyday which I hate them so much! ( Yes, they do crashing sometime!) Sometime I am very tempting to put Kubuntu back on my laptop for some reasons because of GUI friendly and so beautiful! ;-) I am still new to Linux and I like GNOME better than KDE for now.

The only thing it doesn't have right now is bulletproof X, but you can get that simply by using GDM as your login manager. I for one do not believe that kubuntu is really “behind”.

According to the roadmap, it should have caught up to Ubuntu 8.04 by then. Because Kubuntu 7.10 is basically playing catchup to Ubuntu 7.04. I would recommend waiting until 8.04 comes out.

If you could just explore one issue...it seems that KDE and GNOME handle some hardware inputs and respond quite differently. Specifically, while GNOME behaves perfectly when the laptop lid is closed and sends the box into suspension, KDE often loses the settings and behaves randomly. I am on my way to send a bug report to launchpad...just wanted to highlight the issue :) Well glad to see another person working on KDE for Ubuntu, it really needs some nug squashing (this said from a user perspective).

I have been experimenting with KDE/Kubuntu on and off since I fell in love with Ubuntu about a year ago. And while it's great and all, I always seem to come back to Gnome. I just like how Gnome starts you from the ground so you can customize to your heart's content. Anyway, Ubuntu is great no matter what desktop environment you use. I'm think about playing around with FluxBox. Hey man! Love the site!
