You can of course delete the commented lines if you want. Make a backup copy of startsimple.sh before editing.
The added line deletes .kdesession files that get created every time you change into easy mode otherwise.
Rearrange kicker (the panel) and change the big and ugly start button
Rearranging kicker is a personal matter of course. Anyway, I push the start button on the right (just after the virtual desktops chooser) because I only use it to run little used programs, and I delete the taskbar. I need all the space for my program icons, so this big blue ugly button hurts.
You can modify this by editing the pictures in /usr/share/kicker/pixmaps (keep a copy of the originals. In my experience, the new icons only showed when I directly edited the original png icons)
Change the windows decorations
This is also a matter of taste. I use the laptop scheme and put the close button on the left.
Get the system to run in English and Get the trashcan back
These two can be tweaked by editing /etc/kde3/kdeglobals
Trash can: look for the section starting with: "#We use a non-standard trash path on ASUS", and modify the path to say: Trash = $Home/Desktop/Trash/
This will bring back the trash can on your desktop, with full functionality.
