I while back I installed Linux Mint, which is a lovely, lovely distro
and I am much pleased.
The only thing I baulked at was switching to gnome - mostly due to
unfamiliarity having used kde since early days.
I know there is a kde version of mint, but I believe it's better to
stick to a distro's native desktop because it's better integrated.

The reason I baulked at gnome is that I'm used to being able to
customise many things in kde.
I found how to set up most things in gnome, except for making the
desktop shortcuts single click to launch.

Well, today I finally found the setting, and it wasn't where you'd expect.
You have to go into the file manager, and click Edit->Preferences, and
the option for single click is in the Behavior tab.

I'd never have thunk that the file manager contains a setting for the
desktop's behaviour, but there you have it.

My transition to gnome is now complete.
