This is built into KDE by default. Set up is in the Session Manager. Two
tick boxes.

We have to remember that default Windows installations don't contain the
plethora of apps available OOTB with Linux installations. Makes me feel
sorry for some of the sheeple that hang out here. ;0)

Linux is freeware. His opinions are welcome.

Quite why you, and your ultra right wing buddies hang out here is another
matter. It's quite at odds don't you think with the spirit of the
newsgroup. You seem to want to limit debate to anything other than Windows
based freeware, and the shilling of products offered by commercial
companies.

Perhaps to help make others aware of freeware alternatives they might
not otherwise hear about if Linux alternatives weren't discussed?

No, it just hasn't been widely adopted. It'll get there eventually.
Those that *do* give it a fair shake tend to stick with it; many end up
relegating their commercial OS to the back closet, or shitcan it altogether.

Of course, there are those few that can't install it or make it work on
their hardware. There /are/ some like that. Usually those who are unable
to follow directions, easily frustrated, think Linux will run on a
toaster, or insist on trying to use incompatible hardware. You would
have to say they /have/ rejected it. Good riddance, as far as I'm concerned.

Did you ever take Lucid for a spin? Pretty impressive, I must say, even
if I'm not a big Ub/Gnome fan.
