I love KDE and Kubuntu is my favorite distro.
But there are a few things I cant live without, and I really, really want them to work in Karmic.
1. TwinView. I own Nvidia videocard and I've grown accustomed to use 2 monitors in my work. Unfortunately, Nvidia TwinView just doesn't work in the RC. In beta there was a moment between updates when I was able to make both of my monitors work + compositing, but it was impossible (for me at least) to save this configuration and I had to repeat the process from the beginning after every reboot. Now the moment is gone, 2 monitors + compositing + TwinView do not work and impossible to make a default configuration.
2. Notifications. I believe, something should be done to the notification applet. Look at the images. I just inserted an Audio CD and tried to make Amarok play it.

4. Plasma Activities. Why the Plasma Activities menu just disappeared? By the way, in Suse 11.2 RC there is a really cool feature: independent dashboard. It is possible to use independent set of widgets on the desktop and on the dashboard, I like this feature very much.
5. Strigi. Please, please make Strigi work out of the box. Everybody will be amazed and will really appreciate this.
