Search for a couple of utilities
1) Is there some "overlay clock" that can display minutes:seconds over whatever other image is on my desktop ? I would use it while giving a presentation to ensure I do not run out of my allocated time. 2) Is there some simple way of displaying some nice "message box" on KDE ? I would use it to show a message saying "External video enabled/disabled" while pressing Fn+F7 on my Thinkpad. TIA, Bob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I find this strange behaviour in two different system from friends of mine, debian-sid and breezy prerelease (both at kde 3.4.2 time) and also I could not change the locale via gui, I remember I had fixed both systems editing a file in .kde... do not remember which one but I remember also I found it with a simple grep -R -i locale ~/.kde/, changed the wrong locale and restarted kde. I do not know why via gui (kcontrol) I was not able to fix this. I hope it helps. Marco hello, with your grep trick I have found ~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals which contains the following stanza: [Locale] Country=it DateFormat=%A %e %B %Y Language=en_US which seems to reflect perfectly what is shown in kcontrol.
