Not that I could find. However, "top -b -n 1 > top.txt" puts similar info
into top.txt, where you can fool with it in a reasonable way.

kUbuntu must put that info in a differently named file somewhere in /var/log/
. Look in there and find where the logs are, because that info will be very
useful at some point in the future.

System Settings -> Application and System Notifications -> Launch Feedback,
then set it to whatever you like. There's a *lot* of stuff in KDE's System
Settings application; poke around in there and find as much as you can. It's
possible that disabling "nepomuk semantic desktop" under Desktop Search would
help, as constantly re-indexing everything in your ~ would use a lot of CPU
and I/O to no real purpose.

Open a konsole and start firefox from the command line. It should output
something like "/usr/lib64/libfoobar.so.1 : cannot open shared object file, no
such file or directory", which will give you some idea of what needs to be
fixed.
