This DesktopEnvironment is one of the two most popular for Linux. (The other is [GNOME].)
Often used because it is easy to configure, and can look similar to windows by default. Great for newbies and highly configureable by those more advanced. A bit too much eye candy for some, perhaps.
-KDE has recently hit version 3.1 (it must be better than Gnome, it has a higher version number!). It uses Trolltech's [QT
] widget library.

-__Removing the stupid dragon from the KDE's Logout window.__
When you logout from KDE you will see a cute cartoon of a dragon in the logout window. It is called "
[Konqi|http://dot.kde.org/988686464/]"
. After your 100th logout Konqi will no longer be cute. The dragon cartoon is stored in a [PNG] file called ''
shutdownkonq.png''. You
can copy any PNG file
you like over it
. (Ones
with transparent backgrounds will look the best.) ''shutdownkonq.png''
is in the directory ''
/usr/X11R6/share/apps/ksmserver/pics/''
on RedHat and in the directory ''
/usr/share/apps/ksmserver/pics/''
on [Mandrake]. ''(I almost forgot: IsomerMadeMeDoThis.)''

-;: From that link:
''I think the whole Konqi thing is getting a little out of control, and my only worry is that it affects KDE's reputation in the enterprise. I mean...if you were a multi-millio pound company...would you put an environment on your machines that constantly shows a cartoon dragon..
