However I would doubt that KDE would be picking it's settings from the GNOME Configuration Daemon, which I assume gconfd stands for. I also doubt that ALL "gnome" applications use it either, as well as the GTK ones (gtk is just a tool set for the gui right?). I think it may be a case of trail and error. Unless some one else on the list can help. Doug
