Description: KmTail is a KDE version of the venerable Ktail program. It has pretty much the same features and allows you to monitor various log files. Note that most files in /var/log are only root-readable so you will have to start KmTail with kdesu or, much better, configure syslog-ng to use more convenient permissions. Log files are added via the File menu as usual or may be dragged from a file manager. Tabs may be reordered by dragging them around.

Repackaged to make sure icons are installed correctly.
Glad you like it and thanks for spotting the out-of-date desktop file. I will update it for the next version. :)
You should replace: GenericName[en_GB]=KDE4 multiple Tail KDE4 ????
