KDE

I was trying to configure my screensaver such, that it would display as only picture the desktop at the moment when the screensaver became active. In the KDE control center I chose the Slideshow screensaver (under Banners and Pictures) and in the setup I chose a specific directory as the media diretory (/home/your_user_name/Documents/images/desktop/). I also selected display one random image only. The media directory should be empty. Then I renamed /opt/kde3/bin/kslideshow.kss executable to kslideshow_ori.kss and created a shell script in the same directory that I named kslideshow.kss.

We installed Debian Testing onto our old 333MHz/128MB Compaq M300. We had Suse Linux 9.2. It worked well, but was quite slow. Suse, RedHat and Mandrake are nowadays like Windows: bloated. Debian Testing was much faster and we changed from KDE to xfce. No problems, we just had to adjust the keyboard layout in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 from us to fi Section "InputDevice" Option "XkbLayout" "us"

Of course in ~/.kde/share/apps, but if you have one hundred kde apllications and the programmers didn't manage to come up with a descriptive name for the configuration directory, you are in trouble. KAdressbook stores the data in ~/.kde/share/apps/kabc Additonally there might be for all applications (and there is for KAdressbook) the rc configuration file in ~/.kde/share/config/ ~/.kde/share/config/kaddressbookrc
