forget out suggestions for crunch bang etc, it's a very minimal distro for low powered machines and is nothing like the kind of thing you seem to want. I like mandriva, but found it hung on my elderly laptop. As for mint,m its a good distro but is based on a gnome desktop, where you seem to like kde. I would suggest Kubuntu. It looks and feels like mandriva and because it is related to ubuntu has lots of easy to install softwarwe and drivers.
