+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:''''

 !!! 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.
