kubuntu (Pete's notes)

Install kubuntu instead of ubuntu to get KDE instead of GNOME. I installed ubuntu, then the kubuntu-desktop, then deleted various GNOME stuff. Then I got GTK errors when I tried to run firefox, so I assumed I'd removed the wrong GNOME stuff. So I installed kubuntu, and still got the same errors in firefox. Sigh.

To set up system updates, use System->Adept. Enable the two "universe" lines, and change "universe" to "universe multiverse". You can do this from within the Adept GUI or you can just edit /etc/apt/sources.list.
