Mike,

Clyde is correct about the Kubuntu distro since I spend most of my dev time 
working with them. SimplyMepis is a Kubuntu derivative now and is a mighty 
fine Linux OS representing KDE quite nicely. I used it prior to Kubuntu, and 
probably would still be using it if it wasn't for the Ubuntu community 
structure which is great.
