Ubuntu: day 2

Did I make a mistake in installing Ubuntu rather than Kubuntu? Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE rather than Gnome and I seem to be having problems installing some applications.

Well anyhow. Here’s what I want to install.

Audacity
Some podcast organiser / downloader
An RSS reader (can’t get on with Bloglines)
A good FTP client
A good development environment
Apache
MySQL
PHP

I may have some of these. I don’t know and I’m not sure how to find out either. I think I saw Python installing itself during the setup…

    If you are having trouble If you are having trouble simply go to terminal and type in;

    sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

    This will install KDE on your ubuntu box, allowing you to choose to boot to KDE. (Use the session options on your log in screen.)
