Here's are a few recent fav shortcuts :

Ctrl+Esc...................Process table (like ps ax)
Ctrl+Alt+Esc.............Kill :-) (like Xkill - Window termination tool)
Ctrl+t.......................While browsing subdirectories with konqueror - will open a konsole window in directory being browsed


Fav Addons

Knetload..................A network meter for Kicker (great for monitoring network traffic)
Kcpuload..................A CPU meter for Kicker (lets you know if you need to use the first two shortcuts above)

Kio-Apt.....................APT package/file/ search and package info from within konqueror (searches locally or on the internet)
Kpkgmanager...........A package manager based on APT - mainly used with Kio-apt.

Baghira theme.........Great KDE theme / style
Baghira Win Dec......Best window decoration 8)


I took a few months off from computer stuff and am rediscovering the joys of my customised desktop.

Anyone willing to share their favourite tricks and customisations?
