In order to make it as easy as possible, the KDE control center has organized similar options into groups. Each group is called a module. When you click on the name of a module in the left window, you will be presented with the options of the module on the right.
Each module will have some or all of the following buttons:
Clicking this button will save all changes to KDE, and return you to the KDE control center main screen.
Clicking this button will save all changes to KDE. You will remain in the same module.
Clicking this button will cancel any changes you have made since your last save, and return you to the KDE control center main screen.
This button will give you help specific to the current module. The button will show you a short summary help page in the left window. At the bottom of that window, you can click on a link to get more detailed help.
This button will restore this module to its default values. You must click "OK" to save the options.
This button will "Reset" the module. The exact effect will depend on the module.
![]() | You must save the options of one module before you can change to a different module. If you try to change without saving your options, you will be asked if you want to save your changes, or discard them. |
This is a list of the standard configuration modules (sorted by category) provided by the KDE base package. Please note that there may be many more modules on your system if you install additional software.
