How so?  We' re still discussing exactly what was asked in the original 
post.

As did I - he said he wanted to search his home directory, so kfind is 
overkill for that.

Well, afaik they _all_ make changes, so I'm not sure anybody really runs a 
vanilla KDE.

Well, it's definitely worthwhile to mention that - I've been using KDE for 
over 10 years, and until 4.1, and no embedded kfind in konqueror, I had never 
actually known that kfind was a separate application.  The embedded kfind may 
well be the thing I miss most.

And if you have managed not to switch yet, there's no good reason to until 
9.04!  I like what's there in 4.1, but it's just a crying shame that there 
isn't _enough_ in 4.1!
