KDE and Gnome are two > different things, even though they do almost the same thing. How is that different from normal operations? I have to use the configuration dialog in KMail (Kontact) to configure my email client and the one in Konqueror for that app and the one in Xchat for that app, etc., etc., etc., etc. You *do not have* to use kcontrol every day. I use KDE as my desktop and I only look at kcontrol about once a month because I *want* to change something. It wouldn't even be that frequently if it weren't for the nature of my profession (and of my nature, I'll admit :) ). > It is like > using Honda parts to fix a Fort, a handy mechaninc might make it work, > but it would be way easier to use Fort parts to fix a Fort.
