Well i don't have a girlfriend! :D or a desktop background :)

I use Linux Ubuntu and have the Ubuntu NetBook Remix installed (i use an EEE PC) and thus don't have a background visible!

You can convert the UNR Desktop into a proper desktop if you want:

use the command: sudo apt-get install desktop-switcher

Or, if that don't work, this is how to do it manually :)

in unr mode
system - preference - startup application
unchecked - maximus
unchecked - netbook launcher

on the top panel
right click the little ubuntu logo (it's the go home applet) and remove it

then right click on any part of the blank portion of the top panel
select add to panel
select main menu (the main gnome menu)
then i move this to the leftmost part of the panel

(NOTE)
some part of the top panel may look blank but is actually the window list;
if on right click and you don't get the "add to panel" selection item, you are right clicking on window list;
if you can't right click and get the "add to panel" selection item, just
1) remove the window list,
2) add main menu,
3) add back the window list)

then restart

Ubuntu is brilliant, I'm Considering swapping Windows 7 for Ubuntu on my Desktop

As for a Bird, i can't help you there mate :D

It is Arch Linux with Kde installed as the desktop environment, not really a beginner friendly distro but I think you should be ok.

Or you could just download the latest Kubuntu. It's got KDE from the start! I like Ubuntu, but I think Gnome looks dull compared to KDE.
