I jsut discovered that you have to generate the indexing system for the KDE Help Files (this is the small lifesaver icon). To generate the Search Index : 1) click on the snall Lifesaver Icon. 2) Click on the search tab. 3) do the following. Update Index -> Generate Index. The software then does the rest. Youu can now type in terms like Konqueror or Kicker and it will give back all the help files on using and configuring various KDE software. I know this is a trivial piece of info but it may be useful to Linux newcomers. -- Cheers, Jonathan

Thanks Jonathon That is very useful. I just thought that it was broken, not installed properly or something like that. Eddie On Friday 16 March 2001 01:22, you wrote:
