Both are desktop environments.

Ubuntu comes with Gnome by default. You can install KDE onto Ubuntu, or you can download, install, and run Kubuntu, which comes with KDE by default. Originally Posted by JimBoCol

Gnome has an "About Gnome" link in the System menu found in the top panel running across the screen. There are other methods of knowing which desktop environment you are running.oz
