I don't recall the solution, but it may have had something to do with the window style or decorations. Make sure the window style and window decorations you select are built against your version of kde. I thought they should be ABI compatable, but I have had problems in the past. Start by changing to a standard style distributed with kde (i.e. bluecurve), if that works, rebuild your style, or find an updated package. HTH, --rick > Claude Jones > Bluemont, VA, USA
