2.1. Starting the KDE Control Center

The KDE Control Center can be started 3 ways:

  1. By selecting K Button->Control Center from the KDE Panel.

  2. By pressing Alt-F2.

    This will bring up a dialog box. Type kcontrol, and click Run.

  3. You can type kcontrol & at any command prompt.

All three of these methods are equivalent, and produce the same result.
