Kubuntu 8.04.2 Released
,----[ Quote ]
| The Kubuntu team is proud to announce the release of Kubuntu 8.04.2, the
| second and final maintenance update to Kubuntu's 8.04 release. This release
| includes updated desktop, and alternate installation CDs for the i386 and
| amd64 architectures. This update is provided in recognition that the current
| Kubuntu release (8.10) with its cutting edge KDE 4 desktop is not yet
| appropriate for all users.
|
| In all, over 200 updates have been integrated, and updated installation media
| has been provided so that fewer updates will need to be downloaded after
| installation. These include security updates, and corrections for other
| high-impact bugs, with a focus on maintaining stability and compatibility
| with Kubuntu 8.04.

| Okay, how about a smack down between 3 of my favorite distros? Okay, Kubuntu
| is not my favorite as this is the first time I’ve tried it, but it is a
| biggy. I have ragged and ragged on Ubuntu even though I have tried to like
| it. I do prefer KDE, so I’m going to give that an honest look and see if
| that warms me up to the Ubuntu brand. I’m pitting this distro giant against
| Mepis which has been a fav of mine since discovering Linux and is responsible
| for me falling for KDE. The release I’m running is 7.9.94 which is the RC1
| of 8.0. Not quite as stable or developed so the advantage goes here to
| Kubuntu before we even start. Puppy has been my light weight fav for a long
| time and is an odd one out in this little comparison. But we’ll see how well
| this little distro measures up. Since I’m running totally off of live CD’s,
| Puppy actually gets an advantage as it runs totally in RAM.
