Hmm I've always had alot of problems with kubuntu. Konqueror would crash regularly, adept would freak out if compiz was running and drop to a window instead of staying in the system tray, not to mention the horrible layout of it's interface. No idea how synaptic can be quite nice UI-wise and adept equally horrible on the other end of the spectrum.

One last minor thing that annoys me is how kubuntu removes the option for opening a terminal window attached to konqueror in a split view. I think it's normally in the window pull down menu? It use to do this at least, I haven't checked it out lately. Or maybe this is a suse feature, no idea, haven't messed with any other distro's besides suse or *buntu in awhile.

Kubuntu just always feels like the ghetto wasteland of *buntu to me, kde on suse feels very polished and has great admin tools. The only things I'd like to see in suse are features like ubuntu has for restricted hardware enabling with one click, and multimedia retrieval when you play a mp3 etc..

1-Click install seems to be a good idea and helps in these instances but you still need to know where to look to find this package to begin with. I just like the fact that it's built into the ubuntu menu system.
