Because you are essentially in super-user mode, be very careful not to modify anything. Look but don't touch. This will eliminate a potential KDE glitch that might cause the file manager window to flicker when accessing it from a user account." What is he talking about ? Anyone an idea what is going on there that the user should work as root in KDE first before doing anything else on his new system ?
