Change the kde kmenu icon.

Right, first of all the kmenu is the little button you press to get the menu up, like the start button on windows.

the icon we are going to change is: /etc/opt/kde3/share/icons/crystalsvg/32x32/kmenu.png*

first we should backup the old button and chmod the directory and file: >open konsole. >enter chmod 777 /etc/opt/kde3/share/icons/crystalsvg/32x32/ >enter chmod 77 /etc/opt/kde3/share/icons/crystalsvg/32x32/kmenu.png >cd /etc/opt/kde3/share/icons/crystalsvg/32x32/ >cp kmenu.png kmenu.png.old

ok, next you just open kmenu.png in gimp or something and change it how you want… but dont change the size.

if you need to change the icon back for any reason just open konsole and enter: >cd /etc/opt/kde3/share/icons/crystalsvg/32x32/ >cp kmenu.png.old kmenu.png

  • If you cant find the file you most probly have a different theme, just look here: /etc/opt/kde3/share/icons/ and select your theme and go to the /32x32/ directory.

Watch out for true SVG images, dun wanna open those in Gimp. Last I checked you could do this through KDE Configurationg panels/menus as well.
