Hi Simon,

Yes, we do test KDE on Ubuntu; not Kubuntu explicitly, but we do
an 'apt-get install kde' on our test rig.

Hmm.  There has never been a desktop Linux flavor that has remained
popular and in wide spread use for 5 years.

The closest I've seen one come is Red Hat 9; but you'll note that
is no longer on our list, and that was released about 3.5 years ago
(and I know of essentially no one that is still using it on
their desktop).

We will definitely support distributions that are in common use
and are mainstream, and we will never do anything to intentionally
break support for any environment.

But I'd be irresponsible if I promised that CrossOver will work on
Kubuntu in May of 2011; all I can promise is that I certainly hope so!

Cheers,

Jeremy
