I switched to Ubuntu Linux a few weeks ago, and on the strong advice

was out (whatever the term is for that.)
I've noted a few little nuisance things that had to be worked around,
but the apt-get thing is so temptingly easy.
Tonight, however, I wasted nearly an hour trying to get the formatting
to work properly. It was my old template, which I've had for several
versions so far. I couldn't make the header work, for the longest time..
Worst of all, when I tried to make it follow the paragraph formatting,
it did--one paragraph per page.
Now, someone is going to tell me to take it up with Debian. I think
it'd be much easier just to download the official version and install
it properly.
What I want to know is, are these sorts of things the kinds of things
that happen, or can happen, when someone goes at the program to set it
up for their own style of installation? I've seen a number of
problems mentioned here in connection with Debian installs, and the
answer is, "take it up with them; they're the ones who've done heaven
knows what adjustments to the code."
Any responses would be appreciated.

Jim,
I am sorry that I have no answers for you since I use Fedora Core, but I
have been thinking about installing K-Ubuntu myself, so I am curious
about your final resolutions....
