Well, on the Kppp question if you've typed in your password in the kppp window
I'm not sure..
To put a new icon on the desktop you click your right mouse button on an empty
area on your desktop and a menu will popup and from there go to "new" on that
menu and chose what type of icon you want to add to your desktop. One of these
choices is application. Once you click one of the menu choices, a window will
come up in which you can name your icon (edit the name to the left of the
.kdelnk). Once you ok that , you will be presented with a window to set the
properties for your icon.
