<!-- These are the language-independent entities. They can be (more
353
or less) freely extended. Keep this list sorted and sensible.
354
Make sure you always add full markup to the text.
356
Naming policy: name the entity like you would see the text
357
(inclusive case). KDE entities are always lowercased. Spaces
358
are omitted. Examples: Qt (for "Qt"), RedHat (for "Red Hat"),
359
kfloppy (for "KFloppy") . (Entity names cannot start with digits,
360
in that case, use the written form for the first digit.)
362
DO NOT JUST RENAME ENTITIES! That implies removal of an existing
363
entity and that may change the validity of documents, which must
364
not happen. Place the name you wish to remove in the list of
365
obsolete entities (depending on the case, the expansion is
366
redefined or kept as it was); the new name goes in the official list.
367
A later version of the DTD (with another version number!) will
368
effectively remove these entities. In that way, old documents
369
remain valid, while new ones can only use the new declarations.

666
<para>Kubuntu is an entirely open source operating system built around the
667
Linux kernel. The Kubuntu community is built around the ideals
668
enshrined in the <ulink url="http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/philosophy">Ubuntu
669
Philosophy</ulink>: that software should be
670
available free of charge, that software tools should be usable
671
by people in their local language and despite any disabilities,
672
and that people should have the freedom to customize and alter
673
their software in whatever way they see fit. For those reasons:
676
<para>Kubuntu will always be free of charge, and there is
677
no extra fee for the "enterprise
678
edition," we make our very best work
679
available to everyone on the same Free terms.
683
<para>Kubuntu includes the very best in translations and
684
accessibility infrastructure that the Free Software
685
community has to offer, to make Kubuntu usable for as
686
many people as possible.
690
<para>Kubuntu is released regularly and predictably; a
691
new release is made every six months. You can use
692
the current stable release or explore the current
693
development release. Each release is supported for
698
<para>Kubuntu is entirely committed to the principles of
699
open source software development; we encourage
700
people to use open source software, improve it, and
707
The Kubuntu community is comprised of developers, programmers,
708
testers, tech-writers, documentation testers, translators, and
709
most importantly, the people who use Kubuntu every day. We
710
invite you to join this community and help make Kubuntu the
711
operating system you, your family, your friends, and your
712
colleagues will love to use. Help us translate Kubuntu into your
713
language, try it on new and unusual hardware, improve the
714
experience of other users with hints, tips, and FAQs, or help
715
to shape the direction Kubuntu is headed by providing feedback
716
about the software you love most.</para>

<title>Über den Namen</title>
722
<para>Kubuntu is based on the Ubuntu system, but with the latest KDE packages. Kubuntu
723
means "towards humanity" in Bemba. Kubuntu is pronounced
724
"koo-boon-too". </para>
725
<!-- Needs some word foo -->
726
<para>Ubuntu is a South African ethical ideology focusing on
727
people's allegiances and relations with each other. The
728
word comes from the Zulu and Xhosa languages. Ubuntu
729
(pronounced "oo-BOON-too") is seen as a
730
traditional African concept, is regarded as one of the
731
founding principles of the new republic of South Africa
732
and is connected to the idea of an African Renaissance.</para>
733
<para>A rough translation of the principle of Ubuntu is
734
"humanity towards others". Another
735
translation could be: "the belief in a
736
universal bond of sharing that connects all
738
<blockquote><attribution>Archbishop Desmond Tutu</attribution>
740
A person with ubuntu is open and available to others,
741
affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others
742
are able and good, for he or she has a proper
743
self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she
744
belongs in a greater whole and is diminished when others
745
are humiliated or diminished, when others are tortured or
749
As a platform based on GNU/Linux, the Kubuntu
750
operating system brings the spirit of ubuntu to the software

<title>Freie Software</title>
756
<para>The Kubuntu project is entirely committed to the
757
principles of open source software development; people
758
are encouraged to use open source software, improve it,
759
and pass it on. This means that Kubuntu is and will
760
always be free of charge.</para>
762
However, this means more than just being available at
763
zero cost. The philosophy of Free Software is that
764
people should be free to use software in all the ways
765
that are "socially useful". "Free
766
software" not only means that you shouldn't have
767
to pay for it, it also means that you should be able to
768
use the software in any way you wish. The code that
769
makes up Free Software is available for anyone to
770
download, change, fix, and use in any way. So apart
771
from the fact that Free Software is often available
772
without charge, this freedom also has technical
773
advantages: when programs are developed, the hard work
774
of others can be used and built upon. This cannot
775
happen with non-free Software, and when programs are
776
developed, they have to start from scratch. For this
777
reason the development of Free Software is fast,
778
efficient and exciting!

787
Debian, SUSE, Gentoo, RedHat, and Mandriva for example.
788
Kubuntu is yet another contender in what
789
is already a highly competitive world. So what makes
790
Kubuntu different?</para>
792
Based on Debian, one of the most widely acclaimed,
793
technologically advanced, and well-supported
794
distributions, Kubuntu
795
aims to create a distribution that provides
796
an up-to-date and coherent Linux system for desktop and
797
server computing. Kubuntu includes a number of carefully
798
selected packages from the Debian distribution and
799
retains its powerful package management system, which
800
allows easy installation and clean removal of programs. Unlike most
801
distributions that ship with a large amount of software
802
that may or may not be of use, Kubuntu's list of packages
803
is reduced to a number of important applications of high
807
By focusing on quality, Kubuntu produces a robust and
808
feature-rich computing environment that is suitable for
809
use in both home and commercial environments. The
810
project takes the time required to focus on finer
811
details and is able to release a version featuring the
812
latest and greatest of today's software once every 6
813
months. Kubuntu is available in flavors for the i386
814
(386/486/Pentium(II/III/IV) and Athlon/Duron/Sempron
815
processors), x86_64 (Athlon64, Opteron, and new 64-bit
816
Intel processors), and PowerPC (iBook/Powerbook, G4 and
817
G5) architectures.</para>

<title>Long-Term Support</title>
821
<para>Every Kubuntu release is supported for at least 18 months with security and other updates. Kubuntu 6.06 LTS is a special enterprise-ready release, and is supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The development process of Kubuntu 6.06 LTS was slightly longer than usual to concentrate on a number of areas:</para>

824
<listitem><para>Lokalisation</para></listitem>
825
<listitem><para>Zertifizierung</para></listitem>
827
<para>As a result, it will be possible to rely on Kubuntu 6.06 LTS for a longer period than usual. Therefore this release of Kubuntu is referred to as "LTS" or "Long-Term Support".</para>

<title>The Desktop</title>
831
<para>The default desktop environment for Kubuntu is <ulink url="http://www.kde.org/">KDE</ulink>, a leading UNIX and
832
Linux desktop suite and development platform.</para>
833
<para>Another leading UNIX and Linux desktop is <ulink url="http://www.gnome.org/">Gnome</ulink>. Kubuntu does not
834
make use of the Gnome desktop by default. However, the
835
<ulink url="http://www.ubuntu.com">Ubuntu</ulink> project offers
836
Kubuntu users a choice between these two excellent desktop
837
environments. Thanks to the efforts of the Ubuntu team,
838
Kubuntu users are able to install and use the Gnome
839
desktop easily on their system. The Gnome desktop can
840
be found in and downloaded from the main Ubuntu archive.
841
The easiest way to get a working install of Ubuntu is
842
<command>sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop</command>.
843
This will install the different packages required and set
844
everything up correctly.</para>
845
<para>After everything is installed, one can choose which
846
environment to use: either KDE or Gnome.

<title>Version and Release Numbers</title>
852
The Kubuntu version numbering scheme is based on the date we
853
release a version of the distribution. The version number comes from the year
854
and month of the release rather than reflecting the actual revision of the
855
software. So, our first release (Hoary Hedgehog) was in April 2005, so its
856
version was 5.04. The second release (Breezy Badger) was in October 2005, so
857
its version number was 5.10. This version (Dapper Drake) was released in
858
June 2006, so its version number is 6.06 LTS.
