KDE 3.5.x Alternate logout
Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
Alternate logout for KDE, background wipe, based on shadowfade patch http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/shadowfade+at+logout+for+KDE+3.5.x?content=35731
Provided as patches for KDE 3.5.6 (kubuntu), but can be easily adapted to other distros as well.
When patch is in effect, it is possible to control speed/opacity/greylevel on wipe, and revert back to default logout if needed.
use following settings in ~/.kde/share/config/ksmserverrc:
------- snip -------
[Logout]
doFancyLogout=0/1 (new fade on/off)
doUbuntuLogout=0/1 (new gui on/off)
doFancyLogoutAdditionalDarkness=0.6 (default value is a double)
doFancyLogoutFadeTime=4000 (in ms, fade in)
doFancyLogoutFadeBackTime=1000 (in ms, fade out on cancel)

1.0 Initial upload to kde-apps.org
1.1 Uploaded the ui patch which was missing :)
1.2 Reordered the patches, should be correct now.

This looks great!
Any chance that someone makes rpms for Mandriva 2007?

You have to (re)build a KDE with these patches applied to it.
Depending on your distro, you might have some convenience scripts to help you (think rpmbuild, debuild etc.), otherwise you can probably build a vanilla KDE using the instructions here: http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/Stable_Version
Hope the above helps, although its a little more than ./configure; make ; sudo make install ;)

(most hate to see konqy missing from the logout, but I think its more usable this way.)
