1 Hi there,
2
3 I use a Mac running OS X as my main desktop, but I really like knode
4 on the rare occasions I use Usenet. So I have installed knode on a
5 headless server and can ssh -X into it and knode works fine.
6
7 Unfortunately, the fonts are pretty large - I would prefer to
8 configure these on a KDE-wide basis, as the "Location, Edit, View, &c"
9 is equally large in Konqueror, which opens if I click a link in a
10 usenet posting in knode.
11
12 I have tried running `kcontrol`, but it opens without any icons or
13 tree on the left hand side - I see a blue "welcome" page, but there is
14 nothing I can actually configure.
15
16 If I try `kcmshell`:
17
18 $ kcmshell fonts
19 kbuildsycoca running...

43 It appears that `kcmshell` is provided by kde-base/kdelibs, but I
44 don't know what the "!t" in the below means:

70 Nevertheless, it appears some other package is need to provide the
71 modules for KDE Control Centre. Anyone know what that is, please?

73 I'm running "x86", not "~x86".
