Hi Robert,

Did you install from the official Kubuntu 9.04 CD, or did you use my KDE3
remix CD?  If you used the official disk, you will need to add the KDE3
repository to your system.  To do that, you can download and install this
package:
http://ppa.launchpad.net/kde3-maintainers/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/k/kde3-maintainers-keyring/kde3-maintainers-keyring_2009.04.24.1_all.deb

Then do a sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop-kde3

Hope this helps!

Tim
