I've been reading the "Re: KDE...arrrgh" mails and curiously have a few
questions. I have the I7K Dell and have installed KDE. I have The
screensaver set for activation after 1 minute. it will activate the
first time, after I enter my password. The screensaver does not activate
after the first time and the mouse does not respond. I have to
<control><alt><backspace> and restartx.

anyway, I use FVWM at work and am kindof fond of the pager, goodstuff,
(xclock,etc) setup I have.
on my laptop,I can not drag windows (etc) across desk on KDE & do not
like the wm.
the statement above about windowmaker running with KDE:I like the
functions of KDE but would like another WM. 
anybody doing this? 
I would like to see the app. know if KDE can be brought back up & used
for its nice features.
