Glad that i have found this. It took me 3 days to find out how will i install KDE 4.3.1 on Ubuntu. Honestly speaking, I really had a hard time finding it all out until i happened to stumble on this blog. Thanks to my good nephew who helped me on my dilemma with regards on the installation. And thank you for providing a guide for people like me.
Thanks 4 that binbash. Last time I reinstalled Ubuntu to get KDE. I did google for it but didn't get any helpful tutorials so I just went ahead and reinstalled the full OS. Not so linuxee eh!
Is this still relevant with kde 4.4 I love ubuntu but not to fond of gnome.
