???? 'sudo apt-get install kde-desktop' will install everything and the kitchen sink. Including things like amarok, dolphin, etc. What software do you speak of? BTW although I didn't find it (kde-desktop) in synaptic, I did confirm that the above command does indeed install kde with additional software. Try it in a terminal, you'll see all the dependencies and additional software that will get installed just type "n" to cancel. --Manny
