Someone filed a bug (#29105) complaining that the Windows key didn't open the KDE menu. But because they wanted the windows key to sometimes act as a modifier key (when pressed at the same time as another key: e.g. Win+R for Run...) and sometimes not (for pressing Windows by itself to bring up the KDE menu). They couldn't get it to work within the normal X ways, so someone hard-coded something into kcmkeys. Fortunately (?) there's a bug (#77955) with the hard-coding. If the Num_Lock key/Mod2 modifier is on, the KDE menu won't come up. So, to disable this, exploit the Num_Lock bug. As if keyboard handling for Linux/X11 wasn't hard enough. Frank

Oh, I gotcha. I wasn't thinking that far ahead, really. I expected removing the metapackage would remove everything the metapackage installed, but I suppose had that been the case it would have reported a laundry list of affected packages. -- Michael McIntyre Silvan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Linux fanatic, and certified Geek; registered Linux user #243621 http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Rue/5407/

Installs from more than Hey, KDE people wake up! ;) ;) kde-core contains all of the great base other KDE apps can and do use. But from the applicataion/user point of view there is the konqueror, kwrite(kate) and konsole That's all! kde-core has: no mailer (kmail), no cd player (kscd), no mixer (kmix), no addressbook (kaddressbook), no pdfviewer (kghostview). Well, that's my minimum list of apps. If others send their top 5 KDE apps we get a _small_ but useful new kde-destop-environment pkgs before sarge+1.

Aside from konqueror and konsole, the apps I use every day are kmail, knode, and kaddressbook. There are many other wonderful kde apps which I would install as well, but those five top my list of indispensables. The more I use konqueror, kmail and knode the more impressed I am by how well they complement each other. -- Bud Rogers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> KD5SZ
