  1. Best Answer

    A simple search of Kubuntu+Daily and Kubuntu+12.04+Aplha+1 on a random search engine gives you the answer:

    http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/daily-live/current/

    It's a daily Image.

    Alpha 1 was released 1 Dec. so it's Old and of no use now, daily images are newer. The next Alpha is to be released in Feb.

    • Kubuntu 12.04 Alpha 1 – 1/Dic./2011
    • Kubuntu 12.04 Alpha 2 – 2/Feb./2012
    • Kubuntu 12.04 Beta 1 – 1/Mar./2012
    • Kubuntu 12.04 Beta 2 – 22/Mar./2012
    • Kubuntu 12.04 RC – 19/Abr./2012
    • Kubuntu 12.04 Final Stable – 26/Abr./2012

  2. I have not seen an official release of Kubuntu 12.04 Alpha yet either nor have I seen an announcement.

    FWIW I have been using the daily builds

  3. The correct answer is there was no Alpha 1 release of Kubuntu for 12.04 Precise Pangolin. (I understand one of the key developers was in an accident.)

    You could have downloaded a daily build, but now the Alpha 2 release is out.
