If you like the Suse 10.2 KDE kickoff menu and would like to have it on your kubuntu here is how.

Screenshots here>>

  • Download the .deb package here or on my server Kubuntu Kicker Kubuntu Kicker 2007-04-07 05:52:53 2.16 Mb (GPL)

  • Double click on the package, install, restart KDE, Done.
    or in terminal
    cd Desktop
    sudo dpkg -i kicker_kickoff_1_i386.deb

  • You can change the ugly launch button by changing the .png and mng image files in /usr/share/apps/kicker/pics

    One way to do it: download package from here or my server K-menu Kickofff button K-menu Kickofff button 2007-04-07 05:54:58 105.11 Kb (GPL)
    Extract the package and copy the files:

    If you want all users to have it:
    As root (kdesu konqueror), copy the 3 new files
    kmenu_basic.mng
    kmenu_vertical.mng
    kmenu_flipped.mng
    into the folder /usr/share/apps/kicker/pics
    backup the originals if you want

    If you only want to use it for your user account:

    Create directory named pics in ~/.kde/share/apps/kicker and copy the three files there (you don't need root privileges)
