Hold! How will you come to know of the kernel by installing KDE from
other distros? We appreciate your willingness to pick up challenges,
but this is (to be very polite) *stupidity*. And also you need not
install KDE if you are already on Kubuntu. Kubuntu is KDE based
Ubuntu.

To know the nitty-gritty of Ubuntu, there are several other ways. For.
e.g. attending the weekly get together's initiated by folks, taking
part in the Ubuntu Global Bug Jam, triaging bugs in Launchpad, helping
Ubuntu team to test Alpha releases and fix issues. IMO these are
better ways to get to know the Ubuntu system and the Ubuntu Community
better. Also kernel is the same across distros (except for a few
distro specific changes) and has nothing to do with KDE Installation.

Great!! I have a couple of suggestions for you. Experiment with the
development Ubuntu release a.k.a Jaunty Alpha releases. Very unstable
and will definitely be challenging to sort things out. Also, will help
the Ubuntu devels for fixing issues in the next release.

Or as Fabian mentioned compile KDE from source svn and get things rolling!

HTH!
