I have a solution, but probably it's not what you want. If you are a happy 
user of KDE 4, definitively it's not a solution. Yesterday I "downgraded" my 
Kubuntu 8.10 installation to KDE 3.5.10. It's not difficult and it takes some 
time. I think that it is not difficult to remove it or to have both KDE3 and 
KDE4 installed, but I haven't tested to remove it or to have both setups.

Here is the HOWTO:

HowTo install KDE 3 into Intrepid

The problem in this case is that copy'n'paste never worked fine in KDE 3....

Perhaps a better solution could be to install xubuntu-desktop and login using 
XFCE instead of KDE when you plan to work heavily with TeXmacs.
