http://kuickshow.sourceforge.net/

If you look, kuickshow hasn't been updated since 8/16/2001.  Hence the
reason it's no longer in *Ubuntu.

Mandriva keeps packages around for years and years, even after being
unmaintained and they rebuild them against a newer KDE/Gnome or whatever.  I
know this well since I ran the distro for 4+ years and still build packages
for the distro.  It's crazy, but it's true.  kuickshow is a goner in most
all distros.
