Chapter 5. The K Menu

The K Menu is one of the central elements of Kicker.

There are five main groups in the K Menu which will be described now from bottom to top.

The KDE Group

This group is for the common KDE things in the K Menu.

Log Out...

This entry is used to finish the KDE session. It also shuts down the X Window System® session.

Lock Session

With this entry you can lock your session if you don't want anybody else to access your desktop. If you have set a screensaver, it will appear when locked, otherwise the screen will turn black. If you hit any key, you will be prompted for your user password. This is independent from the screensaver's password settings.

Special Configuration

Clicking with the right mouse button on the K Menu, will produce a special submenu. In this submenu is the Panel Menu. Here you can change the settings of Kicker, described in the Configuring Kicker section, add things to Kicker (see in Kicker Basics for more), or reach the Help Menu, but as you are reading this, you probably found it yourself. You can also start the Menu Editor via this submenu.
