I have suse 9.2 installed on one machine with all the latest KDE
software and like it. I am always playing with other installation
flavors of Linux. I am very suprised with Ubuntu 5.04 (Gnome) and after
burning the Iso disk from the initial download I got everything to work
in Gnome. Yesterday using Synaptic I got all of the latest KDE 3.4 files
and changed over to a KDE (Kubuntu). There is a nice desktop menu that
allows you to change from 'Gnome' to 'KDE' during logon. Anyone
interested should give them a try if that want a 'completely free'
installation. Everything from the start with the first install of Ubuntu
worked. Even my Nvidia video card and Negear Wifi (Atheros chipset)
card. I'm pretty impressed. Not knocking Suse, but just offering
alternatives if people are interested. It also alows for a grub/dual
Windows/Linux boot also like Suse. So both OS's are available if one has
them both to use. Didn't previously have success with Ubuntu by the way,
so they've made some improvments in the right direction.
