It would be helpful to have some detail about the mount workarounds - fstab examples and/or hal edits --[[User:Annew|annew]] 19:33, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Autohide should be updated. 4.2 is released and we can now autohide panels.

----
I changed the formatting several places: Most web addresses are now hidden, and the two command lines have been indented to make them stand out.

I also modified the text a few places: 
* Auto-hide Panels: added a note on how to do it i 4.3
* Obtain network access behind Fritzbox routers: The bug is reported as fixed - the text now reflects this.
* Show the application name instead of the description in the K - menu: Text now has a short mention of the Kickoff Menu Style and how to change to Classic Style.

I am unsure about the bluetooth section. Is it still correct? --[[User:Claus chr|Claus chr]] 27 September 2009
:I don't know, and there seems to be no-one on #kde at the moment that can tell me.  I'll try to find out.--[[User:Annew|annew]] 12:10, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

I'm puzzled by a couple of things on this page.  In the kcontrol paragraph, it says "Included, at least in KDE 4.2.1".  I didn't put that there, and systemsettings has been included since 4.0.  I'm inclined to replace that with a comment pointing to the icon for systemsettings, so that it's easily recognised.  What do you think?--[[User:Annew|annew]] 12:10, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

The other thing that puzzles me is the reference to kpersonalizer.  In 7 years of using KDE I've not come across this.  Is/Was it distro-specific?  Do you know anything about it? --[[User:Annew|annew]] 12:10, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

I agree, that these section are odd. I think, You should definitely correct the section on kcontrol. I haven't come across kpersonalizer either and know nothin about it. --[[User:Claus chr|Claus chr]]

The section on Drag'n'Drop claims, that if you drop an image on the desktop, you get three options: Previewer, PhotoFrame or icon. When I try this I only get the latter two. Is this a distro thing? I tested it with SUSE 11.2 Milestone 8 and KDE 4.3.1. --[[User:Claus chr|Claus chr]] 6 November 2009
:It's possible, of course.  I'll try to find out from the Fedora packagers.  --[[User:Annew|annew]] 13:14, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
::I'm told that it's very likely a matter of whether you have kdeplasma-addons installed.  I'd better add that.  Thanks for pointing it out.--[[User:Annew|annew]] 19:53, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
:::I made the change, but now the supposition is being questioned.  I'll watch the thread and if I get any explanation I'll post it here and update the page. --[[User:Annew|annew]] 10:46, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
