 We have a bugreport already for this: 
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52206

 KWin up to KDE3.1 supports only older NETWM spec version (1.0), where's no 
support for fullscreen windows (and I personally consider Override window 
type currenly used for KDE fullscreens a rather ugly hack). After a quick 
look at Ogle sources, there is support for KDE, so Rob, if you're bored, you 
may start binary search on older KWin CVS versions until you find the change 
that broke it.

 KWin has currently been branched in CVS (kwin_iii branch), and should be 
hopefully fully NETWM1.2 and ICCCM2.0 compliant in KDE3.2.
