... that did it! A snapshot can be found at: http://users.bigpond.net.au/jaymz/debian/sarge-1280x1024-kde-2.png ... which is a vast improvement on: http://users.bigpond.net.au/jaymz/debian/sarge-desktop.png ... and even: http://users.bigpond.net.au/jaymz/debian/rh9-kde-2.png However ... Cursor now gets blocked out with ugly black stripes -------------------------------------------------------------------------- One problem, which is more than a little irritating, is that a pair of two groups of ugly black stripes, which look similar to barcodes, and which, together, occupy a rectangle 45 pixels across and 60 pixels high blocks out the mouse cursor, whenever it is located on an icon or a border region. The top right corner of this region is located right on top of where the mouse cursor would be visible. This happens for screens of 1280x1024, 800x600, but NOT 640x480. On a 800x600 screen it has the appearance of a pair of bar codes. I was not able to capture these stripes with KSnapshot.
