Your post was more about your dislike for KDE than anything else. I saw nothing that would help the OP or the software to correct the problem. When a person discovers a bug or some other flaw in software, advising them not to file a bug report is pointless advice that helps no one. It doesn't help the OP or anyone else either. This list is about helping others and when the problem is not something the OP can fix, advising to file a bug report so it can be fixed by the people who can. I to in the past have asked about filing a bug report and who it needs to be filed with. Sometimes it is a Gentoo issue, sometimes it is upstream. Asking to be sure is a sensible thing. Advising a person that filing a bug report for what is known to be a bug is the proper course of action. What software it is doesn't matter. If the OP had a problem with the desktop GUI you are using, would you give the same advice? Would you post that filing a bug is pointless because the software sucks? Really? You imply that I'm childish when you have the point of view you have which is childish? The OP found a bug, so did others it seems which is based on the bug report that was filed, and it needs to be reported and info shared to help the devs fix it. Your opinion that the software sucks is irrelevant. I don't need your parenting advice. I'm 52 years old. My last parent died less than a year ago. Emailing them for advice, not that I need any but maybe you do, is not a option for me. So I don't need your parenting advice or you to tell me I need any. Dale :-) :-)
