Kubuntu

Posted at 9:16 pm MST to Technology

The operating system seems to be working, although KDE is acting a little strange. I think some of the settings that got copied over from SuSE in my home directory are conflicting with the way Kubuntu wants things. I have a feeling I'm going to be spending some time exploring the KDE config files.

I've got the following important non-KDE applications usable:
apache2 (for the local website development), ReaderWare, GnuCash, VMWare. I haven't attacked reloading Oracle yet. That will be a project for after I get the main environment tuned a little better.

Considering that apache is a mature a widely used and well-documented package with fairly straightforward configuration, I would like to know why every Linux distro wants to screw up the config files in their own unique way so the standard docs won't quite apply. I think the Linux Standard Base should consider standardizing the apache config files.
