[NTLUG:Discuss] Fw: The in's & outs of synaptic packsge manager

[Alan Howell]

Gilbert, I would be interested in your grief with Ubuntu - in another

Allen,

'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop'
On the screen where one logs in (after reboot and install) you should have
an options button - click it and select KDE or gnome then select it as the
default.

(old picks, but might help identify what I'm referring to)
