Ritual for setting up a KDE environment

These are the steps to follow to set up a kde environment, in more or less the order or urgency.

Virtual desktops

Can't live with that. Declare $4\times4$ in Settings then for Switching, first "Always Enabled" switching desktop on edge (0ms or minimum for everything, no animation) in Shortcuts KWin family such as:

  • Ctrl+(left,right,up,down): navigate through desktops (staying in the same row/column).
  • Ctrl+Alt+Shift+(left,right,up,down): navigate through desktops (seemingly)
  • Ctrl+Alt+(left,right,up,down): drag active window navigate through desktops.

The shortcuts are now to be found in KWin's Global Shortcuts.
