[Clug-tech] KDE 4 Question

[Shawn]

Click the notification icon (bottom right corner - usually a number 
indicating how many notifications there are...).  This brings up the 
list of running "jobs" like file transfers.

On a running job, click the X cancel a job.  If you have multiple jobs 
happening, they may be grouped (3 or 4 simultaneous file transfers for 
instance) - there is an arrow icon (I think) to expand/collapse the group.

My details may be a little off - I don't have any processes running like 
that at the moment so can't be more specific.  But, you should get the idea.

In terms of stopping an application (another type of "job"), hit 
CTRL-ESC to bring up the system activity panel - you can kill apps there...
