Andras thank you for your response.

In working on creating a Kubuntu Desktop Guide from the orignal Ubuntu source, 
If you bring up any XML document, you'll notice that the DTD is 

<!DOCTYPE preface PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.3//EN" 
	"http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.3/docbookx.dtd" 

One difficulty is that I cannot seem to get this loaded into Quanta 3.5.  I 
have looked at the DTD items under the menu option but dont seem to find a 
way to get those aligned with this external DTD source. This could be the 
biggest issue I have as you read on.  Some detailed instruction here might 
help.  The progam seems to always want to load the HTML 4.01 Transitional.

Secondly, Ubuntu does not use the docbook standard that KDE does 
(unfortunately).  So therefore the XML toolbars don't help too much. I have 
loaded the one that simply has the XML validity check and the Xsltproc tab. 
(Toolbars, load Global, docbook, xmltoolbar). 

When I click the check-XML button, I typically choose DTD-external (again not 
sure this is correct), then click the Validate.  The code spins in the 
message area, but gives no valid or not valid check. I am assuming this goes 
back to the fact that it doesn't know which DTD to validate against?

Finally clicking on the Xsltproc button, I check to use the current document 
(in this case preface.xml), enter the source XSL (which is a very long 
URL: /usr/share/apps/ksgmltools2/customization/kde-chunk.xsl and must be 
entered EVERY time you wish to regen.  I enter the output file to be 
~/preface.html.   This produces no output file whatsoever.

Perhaps this gives you a bit to go on.  I have searched around, including the 
KDE docbook info, which chronicles some usage, but perhaps isnt detailed 
enough.  I appreciate your help.
