thats what Umbuntu does though. So then you have a KDE version and an
XFE version all because there isn't a generalized a desktop setup anymore
and everything is now ramchucked into the damn desktop including auto
mount, device recognition, font servers, sysadmin ...it just sucks.
There is all this technology in the way now I can't any longer find the
computer underneath it all.
