.. but your KDE settings are kept in your $KDEHOME dir, usually ~/.kde (sometimes ~/.kde3, depending on the setup)... in particular there is ~/.kde/share/config that is full of app configurations and ~/.kde3/share/apps that is full of app data
if you are using KDE3 you can try out kopete. there is a bug fix release coming out in the next few days (0.6.1) that you'll want to wait for if you use MSN, though. of course, you could be a brave soul and use the CVS version
that's because Red Hat 8 comes with a new and different font system. and instead of working with the KDE community to get patches for the font installer together, they simply disabled it (as they did with many other things ). i'm sure kfontinst will work with this new font system as it becomes more common. in the meantime Red Hat 8 users will continue to scratch their head wondering where this standard KDE functionality is. it's sort of funny; some people say Red Hat didn't break KDE and in this...
it used to be there by default, but isn't any longer because: o it took up space and cluttered the panel, which is already very cluttered and until this change didn't fit on 800x600 o this same functionality is available from the K menu o it isn't any more obvious (due to being just icons) than finding this functionality in the kmenu o most people use those buttons infrequently: so do they deserve such a prominent location? o they were in a place that was easy to click on, even though they didn'...
which OS are you using and how did you install KDE?
first off: hello from Alberta! i'm in calgary, so i can't be all that far away regarding the memory usage, as someone previously mentioned if you run GNOME or other non-KDE apps in KDE, your system will load all of those libraries into memory as well, and that memory will not be shared with the KDE apps (or vice versa) since they are different libraries. this is a great way to run up your memory usage. but measuring memory under Linux is not easy. the old (and accurate) saw is "top lies". becaus...
it's pretty much the same speed-wise, with some notable exceptions including certain parts of Konqueror and KMail (among others, i'm sure). the real key to making KDE usable on older systems is turning off unecessary items such as wallpapers, icon effects, fancy widget themes (try lite-v3 and web window deco for a snappy combo), file thumbnails in konqueror and the file dialog, etc..
check out: http://lineak.sourceforge.net/ .. there's even a KDE config program for it linked from their homepage
the kolab software (server side and KDE client side) is looking very slick. this is one of those "must have" bits for KDE to really take off in the corporate desktop space. KDE 3.1 is already Good Enough for most needs, but it will be things like Kolab, Kopete, Kontact and misc. functionality and usability enhancements in 3.2 along with the next release(s) of KOffice that will take it to new levels IMO. each new release of KDE is supplying new and exciting parts to the "Desktop puzzle", such as ...
Quoted Original von aseigo this is very useful er... this ISN'T very useful. bleh.
Quoted Original von Sebastian Hi there. The 'konsole' gives me the following output: this is very useful, unfortunately. what you want is the Backtrace from the KDE crash window (and to file a bug report at bugs.kde.org)
Quoted Original von Kenneth I thought it was called KWM, for K(DE?) Window Manager? Either way, that's what I use. it used to be called KWM in the KDE1 days. KWin is the updated WM that has been shipping with KDE since version 2. right now in CVS there is a branch dedicated to taking KWin even further so 3.2 could likely see some nice improvements in KWin...
kstart --fullscreen konqueror try `kstart --help` for more goodness
Quoted Original von Berkz Anybody know if you can use a theme for konqueror... cangin of buttons etc... as Kal noted, Konqi (like all KDE apps) follows the KDE settings for things like widgets and icons. but within Konqueror you can also change the layout of the toolbars and the button them along with things like keyboard shortcuts and the background picture/color in file management. so while the is an overall look-n-feel consistency, there is also a lot of room for application-level customizat...
Quoted Original von Geronimo Hello, I compiled KDE, but forgot to add SSL... Now, I would like to add it ? Is there another solution, or have I to recompile all the kdebase stuff in order to make it works ? IIRC, you only need to re-configure and re-compile kdelibs.
Quoted Original von SexyBitch Hello Everyone. I have heard of some horror stories about installing KDE 3.1 on Redhat 8. I did a full install of RH8, so I am already running KDE. Does anyone know the exact steps to install it on a full install of Redhat8? Or maybe the easiest way? I've never updated a package this large, so I don't want to screw up my OS. Thanks. your options include: o waiting for RH8.1 when the 3.1 packages will be included for you o installing a different mainstream distribut...
Quoted Original von Oubipaw$ Thats where It defaulted to install it installs by default in the home directory of the user you are building it as (though this can be changed AFAIK). but you shouldn't be running as root to begin with. Quoted Original von Oubipaw$ Cant get packages, not out, I'm using red hat 8, Rejoice: ftp://apt.unl.edu/apt/8.0/RPMS/ and perhaps consider using a distribution that is a more friendly environment to what you are trying to do?
back in the day i used to use licq and really liked it. but then a bajillion IM networks appeared and it became quickly apparent that a multiprotocol client was what i was going to need. every single one i tried was broken or somehow completely horrible. fortunately kopete finally came along and it's everything i need. no, it isn't xchat when it comes to IRC, but it's good enough for the chatting i do, and its support for the other networks i use is great. so i'm a happy camper. it still has a w...
if it can't find your kde libraries you may need to pass --prefix=<pathtokde> to configure... e.g. ./configure --prefix=/usr
