I wasn't aware that it is known bug (writes note: "must check Mandrakes web page more often") Your solution is almost the same as mine but I dragged from the menu to the desktop edited the new desktop icon and then dragged it to the taskbar, I like to be different :-) However, (and again this might be known, I haven't checked) I have found that when I did an install without Kde 2.2.2 and then installed Kde 3.0 afterwards taskbar icons worked properly and no "--noxft" errror, so it appears to be an issue between 2.2.2 & 3.0 -- Poogle.........
