<para>
The <guilabel>Service Manager</guilabel> module allows you to have an overview of all 
plugins of the &kde; Daemon, also referred to as &kde; Services. Generally, 
there are two types of service:</para>

<variablelist>

<varlistentry>
<term><guilabel>Load-on-Demand Services</guilabel></term>
<listitem><para>
This is a list of available &kde; services which will be started on demand. 
They are only listed for convenience, as you cannot manipulate these 
services.
</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>
<term><guilabel>Startup Services</guilabel></term>
<listitem><para>
This shows all &kde; services that can be loaded on &kde; startup.  
Services checked in the <guilabel>Use</guilabel> column will be invoked on next startup.</para>
<para>Be careful with deactivation of 
unknown services: some services are vital for &kde;; do 
not deactivate services if you do not know what you are doing.
</para>
<para>To change the <guilabel>Status</guilabel> of a service, select it in the list. 
Then you can use the <guibutton>Start</guibutton> and <guibutton>Stop</guibutton>
to change the status of a service from <guilabel>Not running</guilabel> to <guilabel>Running</guilabel>
and vice versa.
