?? Configure desktop (I assume that's what you misspelled)?? I see from your sig that you use openSuSE, maybe that's an openSuSE thing? KDE4 as- shipped (and as Gentoo at least packages, given a policy of staying close to upstream) has system-settings (which aren't system-settings at all for the most part, the kde3 name kcontrol was far more accurate as it's mostly user-specific kde control settings), and with 4.6 at least, there's a "Desktop Settings" I believe originating as the default name of the desktop activity layout, but no "Configure Desktop" to be seen. (I know 4.5 changed the kcontrol layout tho, and 4.6 has continued activity changes, so it might have been in pre-4.5, but I still don't recall anything having to do with disabling a touchpad??) I've never seen this option or at least never /recall/ seeing it, the reason I'm asking about it, as I'd have likely seen it given my exploration of configuration options. Are you sure it's not an openSuSE thing instead of a kde thing (this being the kde list, of course)? If it's kde, please provide any additional information possible, as I like to be aware of my options and would like to see it. -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
