I downloaded the Kubuntu live CD and looked at some of the problems
remainint. Those are listed below. Overall, a very good impression!

===================
system:/media/fd0:
===================
Sorry guys for bringing it up again. Floppy mounting via system:/media
not working still! The floppy gets mounted, but the contents are not
displayed. You have to go to /media/fd0 to see the contents. There is no
way to unmount the device through media:/ as well.

I guess it is a bug of KDE, since the problem description in hal
bugtrack system is marked as NOT A BUG.


===================
khelpcenter search:
===================

- the only searcheable thing is unix man pages. Should it be that way?
- man pages entry is dublicated.

- when you try to build search index, you get a dialog with a dublicate
entry of Application Manuals marked with status "missing"

When you push button "build Index" you get your index built but when you
view details, you see index creation log with lots of error messages:

---------------

X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 168
  Major opcode:  145
  Minor opcode:  3
  Resource id:  0x0
Failed to open device

filesystem driver.  Automatically turning on find's -noleaf option.

------------------

These problems are similar to the ones in Breezy, which also never had
help search working.


===================
Add/Remove programs:
===================

If you cancel a started download and install, you get a message
"Application installed successfully!"
