 On other systems, locate(1) should help you hunt down the file.

+Another option may be to define a user-specific version of this file. The command  
+  
+ <tt>kde-config --path data</tt>  
+  
+shows the sequence of directories that KDE components use to find their data. For instance, on Gentoo, it lists the following directories:  
+  
+ <tt>/home/</tt>''username''<tt>/.kde/share/apps/:/usr/share/apps/:/usr/kde/3.5/share/apps/</tt>

+Presumably this means that a file named <tt>/home/</tt>''username''<tt>/.kde/share/apps/ksmserver/pics/shutdownkonq.png</tt> will override any systemwide file with that name.  
  
 !!! Changing [KDE]'s default web browser 
  
 By default, [KDE] will open links using Konqueror. There's nothing in the [GUI] configuration that will let you change this. Neither the [FAQ]s on kde.org nor the MailingList archives contain any hints. A [Google] search turns up a lot of people asking but very few functional replies. The common suggestion of changing the association for the <tt>text/html</tt> [MIME] type only changes the how [HTML] documents on your HardDisk are opened.
