Not sure about 8.1 but in 8.1 keyboard shortcuts for all of kde can be
configured through, k then configuration then KDE then LookNFeel then
shortcuts. Also you should be able to run the rpm as an upgrade with the
-u flag, but double check with the man page

    	In Windows land, I have "hot keys" set up for specific functions. 
    For example Ctl+Shft+N opens Notepad, Ctrl+Shift+W opens Wordpad, 
    Ctrl+Shift+D opens the directory containing all my documents, 
    Ctrl+Shift+I launches my dial up internet connection .... You get the 
    idea. These work no matter what I'm doing, and were accomplished by 
    creating a shortcut to the application or directory, then entering 
    the hot key sequence in its Properties. 
    
    	In linux, apparently these are called key bindings, but from what I 
    gather from Help, these are all application specific. What I would 
    like to do is: Ctrl+Shift+N open Advanced Editor, Ctrl+Shift+W open 
    Kword, Ctrl+Shift+H open my home directory in Konqueror. 
    
    Is there a way to accomplish this in Mandrake 8.1 with KDE ?
