!!! Removing the silly dragon from [KDE]'s Logout window The [KDE] logout window shows [Konqi | http://dot.kde.org/988686464/], a cartoon of a dragon that is cute about twice and then gets annoying. If you want to get rid of it, find a [PNG] file called <tt>shutdownkonq.png</tt> on your system and overwrite it with anything you like (preferrably an image with a transparent background). The exact location varies on different systems: RedHat: <tt>/usr/X11R6/share/apps/ksmserver/pics/</tt> [Mandriva]: <tt>/usr/share/apps/ksmserver/pics/</tt> [SUSE]: <tt>/opt/kde3/share/apps/ksmserver/pics/</tt> On other systems, locate(1) should help you hunt down the file. !!! 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 HardDrive are opened. The general way is to have <tt>~~/.kde/share/config/kfmclientrc</tt> read as follows: <verbatim> [Settings] ExternalBrowser=/path/to/browser </verbatim> On [Debian], however, you should simply set the <tt>BROWSER</tt> EnvironmentVariable to the path to the WebBrowser you want. !!! Changing [KDE]'s default font See FontNotes. !!! Adding/Removing items to [KDE]'s <i>Open with</i> menu Start the Control Center and bring up <i>KDE Components -> File Accociations</i>. In here you can add/remove and edit default file associations and the open with menu. If you can't find a file association, it is probally hidden under the Applications area.
