If you wish to start an X-based session from the console, use
[startx](./xorg.md#startx) to run `startplasma-x11`. For a Wayland-based
session, run `startplasma-wayland` directly.

## Dolphin

Dolphin is the default file manager of the KDE desktop environment. It can be
installed on its own by installing the `dolphin` package, or it can be installed
as part of the `kde5` or `kde5-baseapps` packages.

### Thumbnail Previews

To have properly working thumbnail file previews, the packages
`ffmpegthumbnailer` and `kdegraphics-thumbnailers` have to be installed. Enable
previews in "Control" -> "Configure Dolphin" -> "General" -> "Previews" by
checking the corresponding boxes. File previews will be shown for the selected
file types after clicking "Preview" in dolphin's toolbar.

### Integrated Terminal

The integrated terminal function (key F4) opens a terminal emulator inside
dolphin's window, on the same directory being currently browsed. It is
configured to require Konsole (KDE's default terminal emulator) by default.
