+
+This is the README file for the KDE integration of lcd4linux
+
+
+First: lcd4linux is  NO  KDE program!
+
+But: lcd4linux with the X11-driver can be integrated in KDE, so that it
+drives a little window in the KDE panel.
+
+This so called 'swallowing on panel' can be accomplished by using a .kdelnk
+file and a special configuration. Both files come with this package, but should
+be adopted to your needs.
+
+The KDE panel windows must have a size of 45x45 pixels. We get this size by
+using a size of 6x5 characters, each character has 6x8 pixels. By using
+a horizontal gap of 1 pixel between characters, we get a size of 
+
+horizontal: 6 chars * 6 pixels + 5 gaps = 41 pixels
+vertical:   5 chars * 8 pixels          = 40 pixels
+
+With a border size of 2 pixels this gives a size of 45 x 44 pixels. Great!
+
+I prefer using 5 vertical bars (load avg, CPU busy, CPU system, disk read+write,
+network receive+transmit, ISDN in+out), but you use any other combination you
+like.
+
+
+INSTALLATION:
+
+* download and compile lcd4linux
+* edit lcd4linux.kdelnk and copy to $KDEDIR/share/applnk/apps/System
+* copy lcd4linux.xpm to $KDEDIR/share/icons
+* copy lcd4kde.conf to /etc
+* create a /etc/lcd4X11.conf (this will be used if you start lcd4linux from the menu
+  or by clicking on the panel window
+* use "Panel/Add Application" from the K menu to create a panel entry
+* restart KPanel
+
+Enjoy!
