常见任务

当常见任务感到奇怪时

如果您新来 Plasma 工作空间，那么可能对于许多常见任务感到奇怪。一些东西是全新的概念，并且其它的事情做得不同。这里有很多关于如何进行许多 Plasma 任务的截屏于 How-To 页面.

我如何安装额外的 KDE 软件呢?

在您的计算机上安装软件，无论是 KDE SC 或 GNOME ，很大程度上决定于您的发行版的软件管理系统。请向您的发行版咨询更多信息。 安装 KDE 软件 有更多细节.

我如何安装 wifi /视频/其他硬件的驱动呢?

安装网络或视频硬件的驱动是绝大多数发行版关心的任务。不同的发行版使用不同的工具来配置硬件。请首先向您的发行版咨询更多信息。一个不错的方式是通过在聊天频道询问其他用户。

在 Steroids 管理文件

Dolphin 是您的新型文件管理器，但它看起来感觉与旧的文件管理器有很大不同。学习如何启用预览，让您自己快速访问您使用最多的目录，并且选择您想看到您文件的多少细节。所有这些与更多在文件管理教程中

使用一个更传统的文件管理器

Konqueror 主要是网络访问界面，但它也可用作一个传统文件管理器。如果这是您所偏爱的，在系统设置，选择公共外观与行为并且点击文件关联。在已知类型列表中，选择 inode/directory 类型。在窗口的右边常规选项卡中，选择 Konqueror 于程序优先顺序并且点击上移按钮直到它在顶端。单击应用以保存改变。

可移动设备

挂载设备

Note

"挂载"设备的意思是什么呢?想象打开它然后读取它，相似的，umount (卸载命令) 就像是关闭书本。

绝大部分发行版--在它们的默认设置中--不自动挂载可移动设备。有两种主要的方法来处理这个。

• Using the Device Notifier - click on the device name and you will be shown relevant options, one of which will be Open with File Manager. This opens Dolphin with the contents of the device listed.
• Mounting in Dolphin - if you already have Dolphin open you will see the new device appear in the Places panel. Click on that and you will see the contents of the device.
• If you prefer the drive to be automatically mounted, you can now do this by going to System Settings -> Hardware Section -> Removable Devices and check Enable automatic mounting of removable storage media.

Tip

The first option "Only automatically mount removable media that has been manually mounted before" may be a more secure option than mounting all removable media

If you choose to automount, remember that you still need to umount it (close it) before removing it. This is the equivalent of Windows software saying "safely remove". In Device Notifier you will see . In Dolphin, a right-click will offer you the same icon with "Safely Remove" and the device's name.

Information

Audio disks can be played without mounting. Use your favourite disk-playing application

Umounting the drive

Again, you have two main possibilities.

• Use the device notifier. Instead of the plug icon that you saw before, there will now be an up-arrow icon similar to that shown on VHS and DVD players. That will "safely remove" the drive. However, it will not eject it. Always wait a few seconds after using this, as buffers are flushed and you want to be sure that it has finished writing.
• In Dolphin, look for the name of the device in the Places panel. Right-click on it and you will see the Eject icon. Again, take care not to remove the drive too quickly.

Opening an empty CD tray

Usually you use a hardware button to do this, but if that is not possible you can create a link to a script to do it for you. You will find details of this on this talk page

Renaming Multiple Files

There are times when you need to rename a large number of files or folders at the same time. This is often referred to as "batch renaming," and can be accomplished a number of ways in KDE.

With Dolphin

Dolphin has a ability to rename multiple files by numbering them, though the functionality is currently limited and only useful in certain situations. One useful application would be renaming a set of photos. Here's how it's done

With KRename

KRename has the ability to rename large numbers of files based on many different criteria, including search and replace, file properties, mp3 & ogg metadata, and many others.

KRename can be found in the Kickoff menu in the Utilities section. It may be called "Bulk Rename".

Configuration Help

Workspace

• Tweak your Desktop

Full KDE on Small Screens (e.g. Netbooks)

• The Plasma Netbook Interface is customised to make the most of the available space and automatically configures window management to give full room to applications.
• KWin's page has hints for slimming down window decorations, making fonts smaller, and disabling tooltips in KMail.

Internet

• Tweak your Browser's appearance

Session

• Occasionally, when something is not working well, you may be told that you need to set up an Environmental Variable. Here's how to do it
