Hi, I am trying to modify the red hat button in the bottom left hand
corner so that it will be a different icon. Can that be done?

Hi,


as far as I'm aware of, you can do that in the control center, provided
you use KDE.
But don't ask me where the exact option for that is, 'cause I have to
figure it out everytime I do that by myself ... again, i.e. I never
memorize these things ;-)
If I'm not toally mistaken it must have been somwhere under apperance ->
themes.
That's also the place where you can get rid of the Redhat splash screen
upon KDE start ;-)


HTH,
Chris.

I did that before. that icon is read from an image file.
sorry, I long forgot which file that is.

This is very, very simple. Simply go to /usr/share/pixmaps and scroll down to thr "redhat-main-menu" icon which is of course a red hat. Right click on the "red hat" and rename it "redhat-main-menu1.png". Then go to the icon you want to use and right click to "Duplicate", rename it "redhat-main-menu.png. Cose up and log out, when you log back in it will be whatever icon you selected as "Duplicate".
