Not elsewhere either.

Nope, I used the full tarball.

I've just been using the newly compiled kimdaba binary and found nothing 
weird, no crashes (kde 3.1.4 & qt 3.2.3) even when I asked for 5000 
thumbnails per window. Searching still works fine too.
I just don't like the fact that the thumbnails are tilted 45 degrees and 
have a jagged edge on a black background (they look like stamps). Is 
there a way to get them back to normal? I looked in the settings but did 
not see it. Probably they were tilted by one of the previous kimdaba 
snapshots.
Then, the configuration of shortcuts does not mention the slideshow 
shortcuts. For a 1.0 release it would look professional if we could have 
consistency here.

Thanks,
Guy.
