I don't use the KDE desktop, but I use KDE applications from time to time. (I use an fvwm-based desktop.) When I start the first one, background daemons get started; I assume for application communication and such. They get shot down with the last KDE application terminating.
Start of these additional programs increases application startup time, or don't they? I would like to start them in advance, when I start my X session.
The hard way: Read through /opt/kde3/bin/startkde and figure out which bits you want to start, and which (kdesktop, kicker, kwin) you don't need under fvwm.
Thanks a lot for your information, it helps. I think I'll go for the hard way; I like knowing what runs on my system. :)
Someone (see below :)) should take care of the hard way soon, I see a lot of demand for KDE apps from people who don't want the whole desktop.
If more than five people tell me their interest (you can use PM and keep that me-too traffic off the list), I'll write up the result for the SUSE-Wiki. Otherwise, I won't bother, since the demand ain't not there.
Cheers, Joachim
