Well, I don't have a /etc/kde but I think I know where the file is.  I
will try that later on.  There are a few things that still are not
working for me yet so I un-installed it for now.  I will save this for
another day tho.  It looked pretty cool but still need to wait a little
longer for me.

Thanks
