I regret that I have unnecessarily tarnished the reputation of Kubuntu.
I found the problem that was causing the crashes. There was a problem
in how I customized /etc/profile and other shell startup files.
After a rather painful debug session I was able to narrow the problem
down to those files. Now that the problem is fixed Kubuntu seems
quite stable.

I just installed Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu 7.10 Gutsy. There are problems.
Under KDE all three terminal programs listed in the menus crash
immediately.
(konsole, xfce4-terminal, gnome-terminal) I didn't try xterm because
I couldn't find it on the menus.
Also under KDE thunderbird crashes immediately. These problems make
KDE unusable for me.
Under gnome xfce4-terminal and gnome-terminal crash immediately.
konsole functions.
I haven't tried xfce4 yet. In the past I have discounted it because
of the challenge of watching DVDs on it. I never figured out how.
Whereas under KDE and gnome it was straightforward.
