kde?
does ubuntu come in kde?

No, it only has GNOME. You can install KDE by doing "apt-get install Kubuntu-desktop". You can also just download Kubuntu instead of Ubuntu.

There are more than one version of Ubuntu(Ubuntu+Gnome). You get Kubuntu (Ubuntu+KDE), Edubuntu. Xubuntu (Ubuntu+Xfce4) is a community driven project. Go to the Ubuntulinux home page and look on the right hand side for versions available. All of the above are identical except for the Desktop/Windows manager they come with, the underlying system is the same. They are developed by the same team but the responsibility for the Gnome/KDE stuff lies with different team project leads. Like I said Xubuntu is a community driven project and not a official version as such. All of the above will allow you to install additional desktop/window managers as you please and you can swap between them. The other option is to do a server install and then install X11+your desktop of choice+applications. Hope this clarifies some things. |

Depending on your point of view I suppose Ubuntu/Kubuntu could be considered different distros as realistically one could be a fan of one and not the other :) Either way I think this arguement is kind of counter-productive, I'd say you guys should agree to disagree :)

If you take it from a certain standpoint, this exchange could give the impression they're separate distros: Does Ubuntu come in KDE? No, it only has Gnome. You do tack on at the end that you can download Kubuntu also. I suppose the response mips might have found less potentially misleading might have been: Does Ubuntu come in KDE? Yes, but it's not called Ubuntu--the KDE flavor it comes in is called Kubuntu. |
Truthfully, I have to agree with aysiu because you have to take into account a noob's newbieness, and make things very clear. I understand what you are saying, but someone who hasn't been around as long may think that Ubuntu and Kubuntu are 2 different distros because of how you said it. You weren't wrong in what you said, merely the way it was said and the perception it will provide to others.
