http://www.kubuntu.org/ > FAQ (http://www.kubuntu.org/faq.php)
I already have Ubuntu installed, how can I get Kubuntu?
Install kubuntu-desktop either with Synaptic or the command line apt-get install.
See InstallingKDE for a full explanation.
InstallingKDE (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE)
There are different packages to be installed to acquire Kubuntu from an Ubuntu installation depending on which packages you want. Below are the three possible choices, or "routes", to go down; the packages below are metapackages -- they depend upon other, "real", packages, and with their installation they pull them in. For details on installing packages methods, see the wiki page InstallingSoftware. The options are as follows:...Before you edit, BACKUP !

Re: Upgrading from Ubuntu to Kubuntu (just works!)
I loaded kubuntu-desktop with Synaptic from my Ubuntu 6.10 base, total file size was about 140MB but everything worked perfect!
