Public bug reported:
I know that plasma-netbook was designed to be used in netbook computers, but
the reality is that it is buggy, less responsive than plasma-desktop and in my
personal experience, nobody likes it.
I own a 10 inches Asus EeePC netbook with a 1024x600 native resolution and it
is very functional using plasma-desktop in it.
I'd understand that you want to use some specific configuration for Kubuntu
where it is used in a netbook with small screen, but please do it with
plasma-desktop, because people who install Kubuntu and find that it is starting
with plasma-netbook by default, get a bad first impression about Kubuntu and
many people abandon it before to discover the possibility to activate the
plasma-desktop mode.
Note also that any other distribution has decided to use plasma-netbook by
default.
This is a wishlist bug.
