I'm having nothing but problems with Kubuntu 9.10.

I moved from Mandriva 2005 LE to Kubuntu 9.10.  Different hardware, twice the 
memory (1GB to 2GB), P4 32 bit 3ghz vs  AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 
4600+.

I did NOT move any of my home directory stuff.  I did reimport all my kmail 
mailboxes.

My old KDE 3.x desktop locked up and required reboot once a week or so, the 
new 4.3 KDE desktop reboots itself at least daily, sometimes multiple times 
daily. The last few times it rebooted it was fine until I started running 
kontact, then hard drive started swapping like crazy (you could hear it) and 
kmail stayed unresponsive for at least an hour, then it started working again, 
though I can still hear the hard drive swapping.

Hardware? Lousy Software (there are a lot of people saying they still think 
kde4.3 isn't ready)?  What's your guess?

I may need to switch to gnome because I really need to work.

If that turns out to be the case, can I easily enough import kmail to 
something?  What something do you recommend?

Thanks.

Jeff
