Ubuntu is based on Debian and I've not noticed any problems with
numerous Debian 4.0 installations. I have encountered various problems
with (K)Ubuntu.
I'd recommend installing Debian from an iso image (for KDE desktop) or
iso/netinstall for Gnome. The Debian installation is not much different
from (K)Ubuntu.
