KDE 3.2

I have a few quick questions about some features in 3.2 I would like to know about before I go and attempt to upgrade.

1. Is there a way as of yet to change the keyboard rate or does it still have ot be set in XF86Config file?

2. I know before if the shift key was held down and backspace were hit it would not delete the previous character. Has this been changed or is there anyway to allow this to happen? It used to drive me nuts ;)

3. To install fonts is it simliar to GNOME where you put fonts in ~/.fonts and then can access them?

4. Lastly is there any type of a finder (like in Mac OS) simliar to the one that GNOME has added in 2.4?

Thanks for the info =)

Hello,

1. you can change the rate of the keyboard in kconfig
2. that's weird, I am pretty sure it worked fine on kde 3.1, but I am very sure that it works fine on kde 3.2 :)
3. don't try but there is a directory fonts:/Personal which can be access by konqueror, but I don't know the real location
4. I don't know what you mean by finder, so I can't answer

Fonts

Putting fonts in ~/.fonts works for me in Fedora Core 1 with KDE 3.2.

There used to be an application called kappfinder that was part of KDE
Base. I can't find it under KDE 3.2
