In several tries on several different distros, I've never successfully got a stable, completely working TDE installation.
I now have four running on Squeeze for four different people, and, fingers crossed, it is stable. And no complaints about missing functionality.
It had better be stable! My reputation depends on it. ;-)

I'm running the PClinuxOS installed from the live CD made available by Alexandre Couture. My installation is definitely not stable ! I get occasional instances where the desktop becomes frozen, non of the clickable items respond. Sometimes mail in Kmail vanishes and sent mail copies either disapear or end up in the folder with the message I replied to, rather than in the sent folder. More rarely a downloaded item dissapears, it simply isn't in the download folder and I have to download it again.
So whilst it works and is far better than KDE4 there are some issues that need attention.
I am scared, reading that... There is only 1 source of source files, I suppose. Until now, I incriminated some Grub, X and others "low level" softwares (but not hardware!). But what to think when it is KMail that bugs???
Related to KMail, I mention just now the nice feature that is the local date representation corresponding to the sender, while headers are "fantasy represented headers". I see that the backgroud color is related to the time of the day. But in the same time, I can see a little bug representing the XFace. The forground and background colors change from one click to another on the same mail (see attached pictures). I noted too that in the french version, there are two Ctrl+S in the menus: - "File" (Fichier) menu for the "Save as" (Enregistrer sous...) item, and in the - "Edition" (Édition) menu for the "Find" or "Search" (Chercher...) item.
I'm currently using Fedora17 + TDE. There are plenty of small pebbles in my shoes, but I can live daily with it. It would be the distribution I would suggest yet, for a complete installation. But I do not give up with Ubuntu, trying from KUbu 10.10-TDE (downloaded on 16/08/2011), as suggested and with the support of Slavek.
Cheers, Patrick
