discuss: Thread: Hide the dosktop in Linux 7.3

Hi, all,
I have a question about configure the desktop of KDE windows for Linux
7.3.
Is it possible to hide all icons and menu boxes from Desktop? What
configuration file I need to edit?
Thanks.
Feng

Hello Feng,

Unfortunately for you, you have found a documentation discussion
list, not a bona fide user's group or similar list.  I'd suggest
look for a Linux users group in your area.

This list exists to cover questions on documentation about Linux as
part of the Linux Documentation Project.

And a few notes.  I imagine that you are using "Red Hat Linux 7.3"
not "Linux 7.3", because there is no such thing sa Linux 7.3.

You may find that the KDE list is a good place to research and ask
this question:

Good luck,

A great resource for finding worldwide Linux User Groups is:

http://lugww.counter.li.org

Just wanted to pass that on!

We encounter this problem constantly. It appears Red Hat is responsible
for this confusion. They prohibit you from using the name "Red Hat" if
you're not buying their distribution, AFAIK. For instance, you are
permitted to download their entire distribution, RPM by RPM, from their
site, and build your own GoodNessGracious Linux 1.0 out of it, but you
can't call it "Red Hat" Linux.

Therefore, a lot of organisations, e.g. magazines, who wish to
distribute Linux but don't want to buy it from Red Hat, and don't want
to use Debian for some reason, actually pick up the entire distro from
the Red Hat Website, remove the "Red Hat" prefix, and re-distribute it.
Red Hat permits this. Therefore, "Red Hat Linux 7.3" becomes "Linux 7.3"

We've seen this too many times to even remember. :)
