Hi there,
I use a Mac running OS X as my main desktop, but I really like knode
on the rare occasions I use Usenet. So I have installed knode on a
headless server and can ssh -X into it and knode works fine.
Unfortunately, the fonts are pretty large - I would prefer to
configure these on a KDE-wide basis, as the "Location, Edit, View, &c"
is equally large in Konqueror, which opens if I click a link in a
usenet posting in knode.
I have tried running `kcontrol`, but it opens without any icons or
tree on the left hand side - I see a blue "welcome" page, but there is
nothing I can actually configure.
If I try `kcmshell`:
$ kcmshell fonts
kbuildsycoca running...
kcmshell (kdelibs): WARNING: Could not find module 'fonts'.
$ kcmshell -list
The following modules are available:

It appears that `kcmshell` is provided by kde-base/kdelibs, but I
don't know what the "!t" in the below means:

Nevertheless, it appears some other package is need to provide the
modules for KDE Control Centre. Anyone know what that is, please?
I'm running "x86", not "~x86".
