I work with a single keyboard, mouse, and monitor connected to both an XP-Pro machine and my SuSE 10.3 machine using a KVM switch. The Windows machine uses a desktop manager called VirtuaWin (from SourceForge) to navigate among a set of desktops using the Windows key in combination with up, down, left, and right arrow keys. With KDE on the Linux box, keyboard navigation is not nearly so convenient.
While I realize that moving your hand off the keyboard to point at a new desktop on KDE's tray is a minor inconvenience (which is why I hate most modern editors which are very mouse-intensive), what exactly are you doing that requires you to switch KDE desktops so frequently that the annoyance is THAT high?
Since one _can_ navigate using the keyboard in KDE, it occurred to me that there might be a configuration file somewhere telling it what keypresses to interpret for that purpose. And thus, I might be able to reconfigure it so that navigation is possible using the same keystrokes that I use to navigate among desktops on the Windows box. That would make me very happy. :-)
Does anyone have a clue where I could look for that? I've tried the graphical configuration tools without finding any such setting, but that doesn't mean that such a setting doesn't exist.
