How to install KDE along Unity?

kde

I have just installed the latest Ubuntu 14.04 and I would like to install KDE along side my Gnome/Unity that I have now. How can I do this?

Thanks!


Solution 1:

You can install kde 4.12 easily on ubuntu 14.04 , open terminal :

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

Enjoy using KDE

Solution 2:

Good answers here, but when installing you'll be asked a question in a terminal about choosing between lightdm and kdm. Either works well and lightdm should be selected by default, just press [ENTER}.

Reboot/logout, and when you go to login again, you'll see a "gear" icon next to your password window. Click it and select KDE, now enter your password.

This option will be remembered until you decide to change.
