Some troubles with kubuntu

[Makurin Roman]

Hi All
I`m new in ubuntu world, previously I was gentoo user about 3 last years.
When I install kubuntu and do some setup I`ve found some realy annoying 
issues:
1) "administrator mode" in kcontrol  doen`t work, It askes my a pass, then 
shows me loading screen and goes to the kcontrol index page
Here`s part of my sudoers:
Host_Alias      LOCAL = c3po
User_Alias      ADM = drolyk
ADM LOCAL = (ALL) ALL
2) usplash breaks my fonts in text-mode(console without X). I`m russian and I 
want my console russian too. I can solve this only by disabling usplash :)
3) lirc(0.7.0.1) packages in ubuntu repository completely broken(impossible to 
build lirc kernel modules). I`ve found a lot of quistions about it on ubuntu 
forums. But from debian unstable lirc(0.7.1pre2) works fine. Why not upload 
these packages to ubuntu ?
4) smb4k doesn`t configured well, after install it needs some setup
in sudoers file, eg:
----
Host_Alias	LOCAL = hosts_coma_list
User_Alias	SMB4K_USERS = users_coma_list
Cmnd_Alias	SMB4K_CMNDS = /usr/bin/smb4k_kill, /usr/bin/smb4k_mount, \
									/usr/bin/smb4k_umount
SMB4K_USERS LOCAL = NOPASSWD: SMB4K_CMNDS
----
I think such strings must be in dpkg preinstall scripts or something else :)

Right now I want to ask how can I solve my issue with kcontrol :)

10nx

P.S.: Sory for my BAAAAAAD english :)
