I have ubuntu hardy gnome.. but i too want to install KDE on this system. Is there any way to download all the packages (On just one deb package) and install KDE offline

a few notes i hope you will find helpful:

-i think you would also like to take a look at this thread:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1055936

-the directions on the psychocats page are directions for 8.10 Intrepid. you can tell by the background in the screenshots, and because kde 4 is not in Hardy's Synaptic repo's.

-also glance at SunnyRabbiera's first 2 posts in this thread:

-you will have a good amount of clutter with both kde and gnome icons. i installed kde 3.5 and the menus are messier than i like in both DE's
