Featured Comments: Week of 2015 May 24

There was one post that got a few comments this past week, so I'll repost all of those.

Review: Kubuntu 15.04 "Vivid Vervet"

An anonymous reader said, "I agree with you, kubuntu is still not stable and cannot be recommended for production."
Commenter jongleren countered, "It might not be stable. I like it though on my vivobook. And it looks great! And it is much faster than kde4. So promosing at least."
Another anonymous reader had this suggestion: "I had similar issues on a notebook with nVidia graphics when using the nouveau driver. Installing the proprietary nvidia driver fixed it."

Thanks to all of those people for those comments. This coming week, I do plan to have another post out, given that I may have a little more time to write such a post. Anyway, if you like what I write, please continue subscribing and commenting!

Review: Kubuntu 15.04 "Vivid Vervet"

This month has been quite busy for me with classes. Now that the semester is finally over, I have a little more time, and that means I have enough time to do a review. It has been a few years since I've reviewed Kubuntu, the officially-supported variant of Ubuntu that uses KDE. Moreover, Kubuntu now features KDE 5 (I know the KDE naming and numbering system has become a lot more complicated, so this is, as a physicist might say, an intentional abuse of notation) as stable for the first time, so I figured I should try this version. I tried it as a live USB made with UnetBootin. Follow the jump to see what it's like. (It should become progressively clearer through this review why there are no pictures.)
