Hee, hee! It's sometimes hard to find the correct modifier in a foreign
languaje...
Now, some answers:
I use kdm, but now I've tested that the problem remains if I start the X
server with startx.
Now hear this: after reporting the bug the problem ocurrs every time I start
the computer (what amazing and scaring thing!). Maybe that's good, now that's
always reproducible (in my computer).
It's still solved if I restart the server.
And now the diff report, that seems interesting:
