[Kalzium] Molecular Viewer Bug

Nope.

Yes, it works perfectly there. If it will work in Kalzium 4.1, that's
fine. But I think we should fix this bug even if it won't matter in 4.1
anymore, as it will be shipped with the first release of KDE 4.

Since the "vesa" driver doesn't work for my ATI graphics card, I used
the "radeon" driver instead,
which didn't change anything. Normally I use the latest "fglrx" driver.

- Ubuntu Feisty Fawn
- ATI Radeon Xpress 1100 (which basically is a Radeon Xpress 200M)
- fglrx/radeon

For now, I'm more interested in Kalzium development, even if those two
projects overlap, but I might take a look at libavogadro itself in the
near future ;)
