Thanks, man! You saved me from having to run SuSE! :D Patches worked great.
I run debian (etch), not ubuntu, so I don't know how relevant this is, but I had to modify one to make it apply to kdebase 3.5.5a.dfsg.1-6. Attached are the changes I had to make to make kdebase eat lock-show- xvkbd. If these changes aren't needed for ubuntu, great; sorry for wasting your time. Thanks again! ** Attachment added: "Changes to make it apply on debian" http://librarian.launchpad.net/6726270/new_lock_show_xvkbd.diff -- Add Tablet PC support to krandrtray and lockprocess (patches included) https://launchpad.net/bugs/90455 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
