    Switch from Ubuntu to Kubuntu

    Does any have a link to a guide for switching from Ubuntu to Kubuntu? That does not involve a full reinstallation and maybe a easy way of switching between the two no the fly?

    For a real switch to Kubuntu and removing the Gnome desktop, thus avoiding the mentioned cluttered menus, and of course freeing up a considerable amount of disk space, see here:
