(changing "konsole-noxft" to "konsole -noxft") but that blank space DISSAPEARS. it just goes away, and your kicker bar starts freezing up again. and it seems i'm not the first to find this behavior. .......this reminds me of an issue with MPlayer's current CVS relating to it's GUI frontend. on some systems with different keyboard/language codesets, some settings get fscked right after the first time you run it in GUI mode in such a way that it doesn't start anymore until you re-create all config files. this is temporarily fixed by adding compile-time parameters... this blank space dissapearing from a file may be a similar problem.
