I installed Kubuntu via a X200 UltraBase 200 without a problem.

Utrabase

To run kubuntu with the ultrabase it's necessary to create the following file:

etc/X11/Xsession.d/45custom_Xrandr-settings

and insert

#!/bin/sh
xrandr | grep 'HDMI1' | grep " connected "
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
   xrandr --output HDMI1 --mode 1920x1200 --output LVDS1 --off
else
   xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1440x900 --output HDMI1 --off
