Do you remember exaclty the commands that you executed with kcmshell? I have looked at the "Control Center" and direclty in the kcmshell options and there is not "User management" module: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ kcmshell --list | grep -i user useragent - Configure the way Konqueror reports itself kcm_useraccount - User information such as password, name and email privacy - Privacy - a kcontrol module to clean unwanted traces the user leaves on the system To manage users in KDE you have kuser. Perhaps were you using this tool? Ana -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
