Service

The Service Manager module allows you to have an overview of all plugins of the &kde; Daemon, also referred to as &kde; Services. Generally, there are two types of service:

Load-on-Demand Services

  This is a list of available &kde; services which will be started on demand. They are only listed for convenience, as you cannot manipulate these services.

Startup Services

  This shows all &kde; services that can be loaded on &kde; startup. Services checked in the Use column will be invoked on next startup.

  Be careful with deactivation of unknown services: some services are vital for &kde;; do not deactivate services if you do not know what you are doing.

  To change the Status of a service, select it in the list. Then you can use the Start and Stop to change the status of a service from Not running to Running and vice versa.
