Hi Chris, I've been following this thread from inception and while 
you've been getting some very mixed advice from the list, probably 
you're best bet is to head over to linux mint forums at 
http://forums.linuxmint.com/ and register. They're a great bunch of 
people,(as are the folks on this list) where you'll get mint specific 
help. I currently run kubuntu 12.04 on my desktop and mint 17 kde on my 
netbook. Both are very similar in operation with some minor difference's 
which the mint folk would I'm sure be only too happy to help you with.
FWIW, Sinclair's steps on setting up user's is spot on. Follow them and 
you shouldn't have problems.
For clarity, mint is based on ubuntu, not kubuntu, so no matter which DT 
you use, unity, kde, xfce, cinnamon etc. they're all based on the 
current ubuntu system, with all the ubuntu support for that system. In 
the case of mint 17, until 2019.You seemed to be under the impression 
that mint 17 KDE was based on Kubuntu, not Ubuntu.
Stick with it friend, you won't be sorry! Linux is an extremely secure, 
efficient and safe OS.
Just my 5c. HTH.
