Thanks for this -- I'm not in front of the problem system
just at the moment, but I think the difference might be that I
used a TwinView screen directly, and didn't use a ServerLayout
section, so by the time KDE gets to it, all the low-level
structure has been virtualized away.
Interestingly, I did ask on the KDE list, and they encouraged
me to file a bug report, which I did, mere moments ago.
