Package: ksmserver Version: 4:3.2.2-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch Using this patch it's possible to disable globally the appearance of KPersonalizer on first login. It has been tested on KDE 3.2 (testing) and KDE 3.3 (unstable). It uses /etc/kde3/kpersonalizerrc to be consistent with other KDE programs.
