Hi Johnathan, I found the answer your question on what KDEROOTHOME should be here:
<http://www.kde.org/areas/sysadmin/fsh.php> I founc additional information in chapter 24 of the KDE User Guide of my openSUSE 10.1 installation: --------- KDE Internals Specifying Directories Environment Variable: KDEHOME Example Setting(s): ~/.kde Comment: Environment Variable: KDEROOTHOME Example Setting(s): /root/.kde Comment: Different variable to prevent root writing to $KDEHOME of the user after running su. Environment Variable: KDEDIR Example Setting(s): /opt/kde3, /usr, /usr/kde3 Comment: Vendor dependent. Used by KDE 2. If not set, falls back to compiled-in default. Environment Variable: KDEDIRS Example Setting(s): /opt/kde3, /usr, /usr/kde3 Comment: New in KDE3. Can list multiple locations separated by a colon. If not set, falls back to $KDEDIR Don't need to be set, defaults work just fine. Running KDE2 next to KDE3? Point $KDEDIR to KDE 2 and $KDEDIRS to KDE 3. A staff member at a university could have the following settings: KDEHOME='~/.kde3' KDEROOTHOME='/root/.kde3' KDEDIRS='/opt/kde_staff:/opt/kde3' --------- Hope this helps.
