    Ubuntu Tweak does not work with Kubuntu

    Hello everyone!
    I'm an Italian user who had Ubuntu and has moved to Kubuntu.
    I would use Ubuntu Tweak with Kubuntu but it doesn't work very well.
    E.g., when I want to install new applications, after giving password, It freezes and does nothing...
    I've also tried to run it from bash giving the following command: "kdesudo ubuntu-tweak"

    It freezes again, but I receive the following lines:
    Unhandled exception in thread started by
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/ubuntutweak/common/package.py", line 80, in run_synaptic
    self.return_code = subprocess.call(cmd)
    File "/usr/lib/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 470, in call
    return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait()
    File "/usr/lib/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 621, in __init__
    errread, errwrite)
    File "/usr/lib/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 1126, in _execute_child

    I suppose it's a bug. Is it known?
    Can someone help me to resolve it?

    Thanks...(and sorry if my English is bad)

    Well, Ubuntu Tweak is for Ubuntu, not Kubuntu.
    Windows no longer obstructs my view.
    Using Kubuntu Linux since March 23, 2007.

      I'd recommend not using ubuntu-tweak with kubuntu (even if you can get it to work). Most of it's features/options are gnome specific or gnome centric, meaning that using them in kubuntu/KDE may either not work at all or produce unexpected results.

      What features of ubuntu-tweak are you planning to use, we might be able to offer alternative tools or suggest how to do them in KDE.

        Nothing that I can't do with KDE, but with Ubuntu Tweak it's easier and faster.
        But if you've some applications like it for KDE, please suggest them to me...thanks.
