The KDE 4.3 System Settings – Part 4 – Advanced User Settings

“Welcome to part four of our look at the KDE 4.3 System Settings
panel. In this section we’ll tackle the Advanced User Settings
under the Advanced tab. So let’s take a look at what’s available in
this section and how it may benefit you.

“The Akanadi section is a single configuration window with two
tabs which, interestingly enough, controls how your personal
information is stored, managed and accessed on the system. This
really isn’t a section that you need to do anything with. More than
likely this will be something that system administrators will
handle, and the average person need not be bothered with it.
Although there are some settings under the Akonadi Resources
Configuration tab that will allow you to fine tune how data is
saved, and where.

“The Audio CD’s section is a rather interesting configuration
panel. It allows you to configure how KDE takes the Audiocd IO
slave and uses it to rip and encode audio cd’s for you via
Konqueror. Given the proliferation of MP3 players, and the need to
convert your CD collection to MP3’s or OGG Vorbis files for
listening on your player, this kind of feature is highly
needed.”
