Re: Kubuntu sever edition?

I do not know much about the server edition, nor am I an expert on servers in any way, but reading its description from Ubuntu's web site, I believe the only software it has installed at first are those applications absolutely necessary for security, leaving you open to build the server as you wish; if it has the Gnome desktop environment installed, just replace it with the KDE desktop environment. The server kernel should remain the same, you wouldn't change that, only the desktop environment.

wouldnt that be same as full install of kubuntu? .. and not just basic or minimal kubuntu?

arent you sayin that just install "apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" after i have logged on to ubuntu sever edition?

No, just installing the kde-core package should do the trick for an absolute base install.
