After my laptop hard drive died wednesday, my labeled "Kubuntu 8.04 x86-64" cd turned out to be the 32 bit version after all, so I bit the bullet and went to Ubuntu 8.10. Might as well get it over with.
I miss Konversation (pidgin's UI doesn't work for irc at all). I miss konqueror's ability to resize images in web pages without them going ridiculously grainy.
I'm still using kmail because I can't find _any_ other email program that can run a precommand and then grab messages from a local mbox file. (How hard is this to implement? Evolution can't do it, thunderbird can't do it, sylpheed can't do it, Mutt requires running a mail server on loopback which is not negotiable, and most of the others I looked at last had a release in 2002 or earlier...)
May wind up writing my own email program in python, which I do not look forward to, but this is _not_ a hard problem...
