All in all it sounds like a lot of overhead imho (sebsauer) |

These modules are present in a default openSUSE KDE 3.5.8 but are not in KDE 4 System Settings. Their absence needs to be investigated and explained. When moving a module from Missing to the table above, please also add a component to System Settings in bugs.kde.org. You can copy the details from the corresponding kcontrol component.
There are also some new-in-KDE4 configuration modules that are not in System Settings either, add these to this list.

System Settings documentation is outdated or missing. This page displays the documentation state. Please see Projects/SystemSettings/MissingDoc
The table above gives the internal Name of the System Settings module. This is used as the bugzilla component. If you are triaging System Settings bugs in the general component, check the table to see if a bug can be reassigned to a specific bug. As System Settings is a shell for many KCModules, modules are maintained by many different people. Some modules should not be assigned to System Settings at all (eg network configuration -> Konqueror, window management -> KWin). This is indicated in the BR (Bug Report) column for most modules.
