    Second linux OS opinions

    I use Ubuntu 64 bit, and occasionally have problems with programs not working because they are only available in 32 bit, notably Amazon mp3 downloader and Java. So far, my solution has been to use openSuse 10.3 (32 bit) as a second operating system. Well, I kind of want to try out the newest KDE, and thought it would be cool to do that by replacing openSuse 10.3 with a newer os.


    Does anyone have any suggestions of what disto I should try?
    1. Must work with Amazon mp3 dowloader
    2. Must work with java (anything 32 bit, so not really a problem)
    3. Must have the newest, flashiest KDE (openSuse 10.3 has an older version that doesn't seem to have all the sweet features seen in screenshots)

    What about Kubuntu 32-bit?

    Well that would be boring - 2 installations of *buntu. But that's probably the best idea, since it would be sure to recognize my hardware.
