Adding a note that root access is probably needed.

+KXP = KGoldRunner eXpansion Pack. This consists of two games 
+(Beginner's Luck and Dig While Falling) that I've made for 
+KGoldrunner. These were added to KGoldrunner version 4.14 which is 
+part of the KDE Applications 15.12 release.

 
 To use them first catch your rabbit: Somehow get KGoldrunner 
 installed. Your GNU/Linux distribution has probably already packaged 
 it for easy installation.

-Then place the .grl files in 
-~/.kde/share/apps/kgoldrunner/user/levels, creating this if it doesn't 
-exist.
-
-Edit or create ~/.kde/share/apps/kgoldrunner/user/games.dat and add 
-these lines:
-
-70 T blb Beginner's Luck
-28 T fd Flying Digger
+Then place the .txt files from the Level Files directory into 
+/usr/share/kde4/apps/kgoldrunner/system. You will probably need root 
+access to copy files here.

 
 Now run KGoldrunner and when you select New Game from the Game menu,

 SOLUTIONS

 SOLUTIONS
 =========
 

-Stuck? Need help? Can't figure out how to pass a level? Normally I'd 
-tell you to select Show A Solution from the Move menu but it appears 
-that KGoldRunner doesn't allow third party level designers to provide 
-their own solutions.
-
-I've come up with a workaround using the fact that KGoldRunner records 
-you as you play levels. The file rec_blb.txt contains recordings of my 
-playing the levels from Beginner's Luck. Similiarly, the file 
-rec_fd.txt contains that from Flying Digger.
-
-If you'd like to see how I did something, move that file into 
-~/.kde/share/apps/kgoldrunner/user. However: Be aware that since 
-KGoldRunner has been recording you playing the levels this will 
-overwrite your recordings. You may want to back up your recordings 
-file if you want to be able to keep it. Also, if you then go play a 
-level it will overwrite my recording with yours. As a result, you may 
-need to keep a "pristine" copy of my recordings file around so that it 
-can be swapped in as needed if you want to see multiple solutions 
-while playing levels in between them.
-
-Hopefully these limitations will be addressed in a future version of 
-KGoldRunner.
