Mint is nice, but when I put it on this machine about one in three times
it would not recognize the USB keyboard and mouse. Damned difficult to
log in under those circumstances. After this happened three times on one
boot I decided there was a problem. Mine or theirs, i don't know, and
don't care.

What problems will I encounter installing KDE onto an existing
Ubuntu load?
The reason is an echo Pa Kettle's noting of problems with Ubuntu.
In my case, it is manifests every time I boot Ubuntu and it
tells me it had a problem that must be reported. he problem,
according the message, which I am paraphrasing as
Unity-settings-utility has had a problem. When I did a web
search I find that problems with this interface have existed
for four or five years. Seems that they either aren't
interested, or aren't capable of fixing it. Perhaps the
utility needs to be replaced with something else that will work.
Ubuntu has also mandated that I install an extra external fan
as its demands on the system as it seems that it heats the
whole system up to the point where it locks and becomes
totally unresponsive.
Not ready for Prime Time, in spite of the prostelyzations of
the AZ Loco group.

Not sure I can help. I personally prefer Kubuntu as I like
the present KDE desktop, and I like how fairly easy it is to
configure the desktop the way I want it to be.

I have been using Linux for about 10 years now. Mostly
Mint (latest 17.3), but I have tried almost every distro.
I keep trying Ubuntu (latest 16.04).
I like Ubuntu although I’m still trying to get used to
Unity. My problem with Ubuntu is the frozen gray screen.
It doesn’t matter what program or website I’m on, I get
the gray frozen screen, not always, but often. After a
few seconds or sometimes minutes a message pops up and
states “Ubuntu has a problem and needs to shut this
program down. This had happened on 3 different desktop
computers, so I know it’s not the CPU. Mint works and
worked fine on all three. I guess just for general
principle I would like to get a version of Ubuntu to work
properly.
I check daily for any updates and do them immediately.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
