What problems will I encounter installing KDE onto an existing
Ubuntu load?<br>
<br>
The reason is an echo Pa Kettle's noting of problems with Ubuntu.<br>
<br>
In my case, it is manifests every time I boot Ubuntu and it tells me
it had a problem that must be reported. he problem, according the
message, which I am paraphrasing as Unity-settings-utility has had a
problem. When I did a web search I find that problems with this
interface have existed for four or five years. Seems that they
either aren't interested, or aren't capable of fixing it. Perhaps
the utility needs to be replaced with something else that will work.
<br>
<br>
Ubuntu has also mandated that I install an extra external fan as its
demands on the system as it seems that it heats the whole system up
to the point where it locks and becomes totally unresponsive.<br>
<br>
Not ready for Prime Time, in spite of the prostelyzations of the AZ
Loco group.<br>

<div>Not sure I can help. I personally prefer Kubuntu as I like
the present KDE desktop, and I like how fairly easy it is to
configure the desktop the way I want it to be.<br>

<p style="margin-bottom:0in;line-height:100%">I have
been using Linux for about 10 years now. Mostly Mint
(latest 17.3), but I have tried almost every distro. I
keep trying Ubuntu (latest 16.04).</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in;line-height:100%">I like
Ubuntu although I’m still trying to get used to Unity.
My problem with Ubuntu is the frozen gray screen. It
doesn’t matter what program or website I’m on, I get
the gray frozen screen, not always, but often. After a
few seconds or sometimes minutes a message pops up and
states “Ubuntu has a problem and needs to shut this
program down. This had happened on 3 different desktop
computers, so I know it’s not the CPU. Mint works and
worked fine on all three. I guess just for general
principle I would like to get a version of Ubuntu to
work properly. </p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in;line-height:100%">I check
daily for any updates and do them immediately.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0in;line-height:100%">Any help
would be greatly appreciated.</p>
