I don't use Kubuntu, but i think the bugs that are experienced by Kubuntu users is because the Kubuntu dev's run the lastest KDE version possible, sometimes with svn versions that haven't even been released yet. Think of Kubuntu as your bleeding edge KDE-wise distro.

So if you're looking for a more professional business like stable distro I would have to agree that Suse is more stable, but only for the fact that it doesn't do what Kubuntu does, and that's pushing out the lastest possible version of KDE to the masses for testing/use.

At least that's what I gather.

I'd have to say it's the gratuitous patching they do, actually, especially when said patching is designed to *remove* options from the users. I have all sorts of little issues with kde on my kubuntu install that I never see anywhere else. They sure have made it easy to hibernate/suspend, though, even if it's at the expense of some kcontrol options which are normally available to KDE users.
