KDE is a network transparent contemporary desktop environment for UNIX
|
|
workstations. It was written by a world-wide network of software
|
|
engineers committed to free software development. KDE seeks to fill
|
|
the need for an easy to use desktop for Unix workstations, similar to
|
|
the desktop environments found under the MacOS or Window95/NT.
|
|
|
|
This package holds the basic kde applications: the desktop, kate, konsole,
|
|
konqueror, the theme manager, the file manager, the print manager,
|
|
kdm, screensavers, kaddressbook, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setup tips:
|
|
- if you don't run kdm, you can start kde from your .xinitrc with this
|
|
kind of sequence:
|
|
|
|
kdmdesktop # to get a nice display
|
|
KDEDIR=/usr/local exec ssh-agent /usr/local/bin/startkde
|
|
|
|
- you don't have to run all of kde to use some applications like konqueror.
|
|
|
|
- as a user, you should run kappfinder from time to time to make sure you
|
|
have up-to-date menus.
|
|
|
|
- when upgrading from an old version of kde, it's usually best to start
|
|
over on your .kde files. Managing legacy config files is quite buggy yet.
