I have the remix Gnome version of Jaunty running. I don't know if that 
is the "full" Gnome. That's why I'm not sure I can install the KDE 
desktop in the Gnome remix.   I guess the best bet is a new Kubuntu 
KDE4.2.2 install. Although I have an Acer aspire one, I think it can 
take the non-remix Kubuntu as it has a hard drive. I think the remix 
versions were intended for the flash card mini notebooks. Basically 
that's what I was asking here.
