Digging around on bugs.kde.org, I found out that the problems I'm having with my xinerama setup are due to a bug in my xserver, specifically the render extension. The (terse) reply is "disable the render extention". So. How in the heck do I do that without uninstalling the entire xfree package and compiling from source, downgrading to 3.3.6 (ick), or some other weirdness. Am I asking too much? You'd think, with the fact that only a couple drivers can do it anyways, that it would be an option that you get seperate to the base X install. So, what are my options? Besides using Enlightenment as my window manager, which, believe me, isn't working too well with kde 2.1.0 :-(
TIA D.A.Bishop P.S. I *really* like the AA fonts and everything that RENDER gives me, I would just like to be able to actually use kwm more :-P
