Thanks for the tip.
Unfortunately, as far as I am concerned kubuntu is a total disaster. I
downloaded their latest version 5.10 (if I remember right), burned a CD, did
the installation, and ended up with a running system with no root password --
that is a totally useless system for doing any kind of system administration
or maintenance.
I then searched their bugzilla and noticed a lot of users complaining about no
root password and some text indicating that the normal user might be the
administrator -- well, I checked it, no go, my personal account (kern)
doesn't have administration privileges. OK, attempt to create a bugzilla
account, and it takes me off to "Launcher" to create an account. I just
wanted to file a bug report not figure out what the Launcher service is, so I
gave up at that point -- too many obstacles.
