I gave the little worm looking thing a try once. I wasn't much on the |
| 19 |
eyes thing. I guess I don't like someone looking over my shoulder and |
| 20 |
watching me. lol |

I subscribe there too. I just get to a point where things work and I |
| 34 |
tend to leave well enough alone. :/ |

I use Konqueror for all sorts of things. I mostly use it to edit config |
| 50 |
files or something like that. I don't like Dolphin to much. It's OK |
| 51 |
but just not for me. Maybe one day. |

I tried that but it messed up my slideshow background. I guess I would |
| 81 |
have to set it up for each desktop. I'll just keep using Gkrellm I |
| 82 |
guess. It works pretty well. |
| 83 |
|
| 84 |
I have not tried the activities thing yet. I don't really know much |
| 85 |
about it. I need to find a howto on KDE that is up to date. |
