KDE on Sid is currently undergoing the transition from 3.5.2 to 3.5.3. Maybe you upgraded at a moment when your mirror offered a combination of new and old packages which leads to problems. Upgrading again today might be enough to solve the issue. If you want to compare packages, here are the 3.5.3 ones that I have currently installed: $ dpkg -l kde\* kwin | grep '^ii.*3\.5\.3' ii kdebase 3.5.3-1base components from the official KDE releas ii kdebase-bin 3.5.3-1core binaries for the KDE base module ii kdebase-data 3.5.3-1shared data files for the KDE base module ii kdebase-kio-plugins 3.5.3-1core I/O slaves for KDE ii kdegraphics 3.5.3-1graphics apps from the official KDE release ii kdegraphics-kfile-plugins 3.5.3-1KDE metainfo plugins for graphic files ii kdelibs 3.5.3-1core libraries from the official KDE release ii kdelibs-data 3.5.3-1core shared data for all KDE applications ii kdelibs4-dev 3.5.3-1development files for the KDE core libraries ii kdelibs4c2a 3.5.3-1core libraries and binaries for all KDE appl ii kdemultimedia 3.5.3-1multimedia apps from the official KDE releas ii kdemultimedia-kappfinder-data 3.5.3-1multimedia data for kappfinder ii kdemultimedia-kfile-plugins 3.5.3-1au/avi/m3u/mp3/ogg/wav plugins for kfile ii kdemultimedia-kio-plugins 3.5.3-1enables the browsing of audio CDs under Konq ii kdenetwork3.5.3-1network-related apps from the official KDE r ii kdenetwork-filesharing3.5.3-1network filesharing configuration module for ii kdenetwork-kfile-plugins 3.5.3-1torrent metainfo plugin for KDE ii kdepasswd 3.5.3-1password changer for KDE ii kdeprint 3.5.3-1print system for KDE ii kdesktop 3.5.3-1miscellaneous binaries and files for the KDE ii kwin 3.5.3-1the KDE window manager The rest of my KDE packages are still at version 3.5.2.

Virtual Desktops after Upgrade
I have searched and not found answers to my problems so need your help. 1. After a major update&upgrade I have lost the ability to have multiple virtual desktops. Using Control Center->Desktop->Multiple desktops goes back to one after exiting. I assume there is a setup parameter someplace that is stopping this. I would appreciate any help on this matter. 2. At the same time I lost the ability to grab a Title Bar and move the application window. I have also lost the ability to resize the application window. Also help will be appreciated. My Gnome has multiple virtual desktops and moveable/changeable windows so it must be limited to KDE setup. Am Running SID.
