Good to know that you want to experiment around but you need to understand the fundamental difference between distros and how they manage the softwares around. Until you are going to install packages from another distribution which either derives out of your distribution or derives out of the same distribution as yours, you are going to left with a broken system. Nobody would prefer to call installing packages from random distribution into yours as experiment and what it is really called has already been mentioned in one of the replies. Secondly, if you want to experiment with upstream bleeding edge KDE, then checkout the latest source of KDE and try to build it up. And that'd be the best way to experiment. -- --- With Regards, Parthan "technofreak" 2FF01026 http://blog.technofreak.in -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

How will you come to know of the kernel by installing KDE from other distros? We appreciate your willingness to pick up challenges, but this is (to be very polite) *stupidity*. And also you need not install KDE if you are already on Kubuntu. Kubuntu is KDE based Ubuntu. To know the nitty-gritty of Ubuntu, there are several other ways. For. e.g. attending the weekly get together's initiated by folks, taking part in the Ubuntu Global Bug Jam, triaging bugs in Launchpad, helping Ubuntu team to test Alpha releases and fix issues. IMO these are better ways to get to know the Ubuntu system and the Ubuntu Community better. Also kernel is the same across distros (except for a few distro specific changes) and has nothing to do with KDE Installation. > Please don't take me otherwise as I am a kind of experimental person. Great!! I have a couple of suggestions for you. Experiment with the development Ubuntu release a.k.a Jaunty Alpha releases. Very unstable and will definitely be challenging to sort things out. Also, will help the Ubuntu devels for fixing issues in the next release. http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/jaunty/alpha3 Or as Fabian mentioned compile KDE from source svn and get things rolling! HTH!

Well firts of all if you are trying to install KDE from other packages the paths might differ if that distro was not derived from debian so you might have a headache installing them Next even if you manage to install it properly, you will have to update the application database and everything Installing KDE from another distros package WILL be ALOT of work. If you want to try installing it another way, compile it from its source and proceed from there -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

Hi Everyone, Thanks for the responses. However if you want me to install KDE using kubuntu or using ubuntu responsibility then what is the use of experimenting with ubuntu? I hope you will take my efforts as a challenge. I just want to say that anyone can install KDE using kubuntu and all, but then how will we able to know the nity-grity of ubuntu and its kernel??
