Some basic yet useful information.

Commands:

Update your apt list = sudo apt-get update

Remove an applicaton = sudo apt-get remove "application-name"

Set KDM as your default desktop manager = sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm

Open a .bundle file in terminal = sudo sh /home/me/Downloads/example.bundle

Programs:

Gedit = a basic text editor = sudo apt-get install gedit

KDM = KDE's default desktop manager = sudo apt-get install kdm

KDE = A desktop environment = sudo apt-get install kde-plasma-desktop = ONLY INSTALLS THE DESKTOP ENVIRONMENT NOT THE ADDITIONAL APPLICATIONS.

Gnome Terminal = a terminal = sudo apt-get install gnome-terminal = DONT USE WITH KDE IN 13.04 OR 13.10.

How Tos:

Login as root in KDE4:

  1. Open Terminal And Type: sudo passwd root

  2. Enter the password you want for root

  3. In Terminal Type: sudo kate /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc

  4. In Kate Edit: AllowRootLogin=false to read AllowRootLogin=true

  5. Reboot Your Computer
