I was just on kde-look and found some very nice replacments for the default kde icon but i have no clue how to change the default K icon in the left corner..
Take a look here and also search on this site or google because your question has been asked quite a lot.
Usually installing a new icon theme replaces the current kmenu button, unfortunately some distros try to prevent this by renaming their kmenu icon to something different from the default.

thank you,
I found out where to go, although I think I will have to copy the K icon into a lot of folders and rename all kmenu.png & suse.png icons with teh k icon
Not sure if this thread is intended more for SUSE users, but I have a problem that maybe you could help with. I can't get kbfx to compile no matter what I try. It fails at qt, even though I have every qt component available, and at the right levels(it tests for >=3.0) Anyway, just wondering if anyone else has had this problem with kbfx, and what you might have done to get around it. Or, if I'm completely in the wrong thread for it, where I might be directed. Thanks in advance.

Actually, since I posted that last comment, I did a yum update, and updated over 300 packages on my system, which seemed to fix the qt issue. Now it's not finding KDE, which is odd, since I actually use it for one of my accounts. The exact error is "Checking for KDE...
configure:error: in the prefix you've chosen, are no kde headers installed. This will fail. So check this please and use another prefix. "
I typed it in verbatim. I know I'm obviously missing the header files for KDE, but I don't know which package they'd be in. I don't need anyone to hold my hand, I can hold my own, I just haven't used KDE since 99, because it sucked back then, but now that it's growing up, I'm trying to get the most out of it.
