3.1 Control Center

Beginner

Hi there!

A few days ago I installed KDE 3.1 to my Slackware 8.1 running Dell laptop, which had originally only Gnome installed. After some original difficulties it runs (and looks) now fine, but I noticed that something important was missing in the control center (when compared to my Mandrake 9.0/KDE 3.0.5 running desktop system). Where the h*** has the "Information"-section (i.e. where you can see information about devices, partitions etc.) lost itself :o ? Is it really left off the 3.1, or am I missing something in my Slackware installation?

The abovementioned section was the most useful in the old (pre-3.1) KDE Control Center, I really hope it isn't left off intentionally, or I have to stay forever with 3.0.x series KDE (not really, but...) :cry:

It's now a separate application, run "System/Info Center" or "kinfocenter" from command line.

Damn... I'm ashamed of myself :oops: . You see, after installation I started X using kwm only once, just to see that things worked, and then logged out and in again using my standard window manager, Fluxbox. I just got confused when I didn't find the "info center" where it used to be, in 'kcontrol'. Maybe I would have found it myself if I had thought a little harder... :wink:
Thanks for your help.
