Kubuntu is over engineered. There are ten ways to do anything when you
only need one. You have infinite ability to decorate the desktop. It
also does not run as fast as Ubuntu Mate or Lubuntu (LXDE) because it
has a lot to do. Ubuntu Mater runs a lot faster.
Ubuntu Mate is the best one that I have seen. It will install on a hard
drive in about an hour and it is real simple to configure. It now has a
long term support edition. It used to be known as Gnome 2 and when
Gnome 3 came out, Gnome 3 or Unity wasn't all that popular. So some
people set up what is known as a "fork" and brought Gnome 2 back up to
speed as Ubuntu Mate.

Hey,
I am wondering if I can some input on kubuntu or any of those users
out there. I am tired of unity and tried xubuntu but was not did not
like either.
I have tried arch for about a month..really enjoyed it but it came to
a point where I needed to be productive mainly using gns3 1.2.3 I was
having issues with multilibs repo. and getting their libssl library to
link to another file.
So in essence, I am seeking opinions on kubuntu I have also tested it
in the passed but didn't mind it ( think I was seeking something more
advanced). As stated before would like to continue with arch but need
to be productive instead of tinkering with the system which I enjoyed.
I was thinking of going to fedora 21 but again I needed a system to
work with the lastest version on GNS, which I tried on fedora 21 but
couldn't get a few important features to function properly.
Any reviews, opinions, input are welcomed
Thanks
