How long should KDE take to install?

Fri Feb 23 06:48:06 MST 2007

I'm running a fresh install of Xubuntu, and I wanted KDE as well as Xfce. So I devoted a workspace to synaptic and told it to install kubuntu-desktop.

Now here's the fun part: I did that 24 hours ago. It still says "Preparing Packages." WEIRD!!!!

Also: will Synaptic continue running if I close the laptop lid?
