Thank you, being a Windows guy, I didn't know about webmin, tried it and
was impressed. New Server coming up no GUI...

Then I would not recommend installing graphical window ports (applications)
on these servers, because it can give you a lot of time,
Well. I don't really know what I'm doing but you offer some great

Hi guys,
I know the steps are documented on the Handbook and all. I've tried to
read, follow, and re-read the steps, but I'm not still getting any

I'm assuming you're talking about icons on the desktop
rather than a menu item in the start menu.
In KDE:
