"Any kernel": any 2.6.9, or any kernel version (2.6.8, 2.6.10 etc.) Because it's known that some kernel versions had problems with k3b (perhaps better: k3b had probs with some kernels ... :) Searching for 2.6.8 and 2.6.9 on this page might help: http://k3b.plainblack.com/news2 IIRC I had serious problems sometimes with Gnome until about 6 months or so, but this was on, IIRC, 2.4.25, or something like that. I solved this by moving away from Gnome to Fvwm, and the latter works 99% of the time like a charm. I'm not sure whether my problems were k3b related: All I remember is: After some problems on Gnome my Desktop was empty after logging in again to Gnome. I fixed the situation by deleting, IIRC, some .gconf.d (.gconf?) files in my $HOME dir, and after a reboot I think I was able to see again a full Desktop (with a taskbar etc.) in Gnome. But I had to reconfigure everything on the latter. IIRC.
