I doubt it is. I run SuSE since 8.1, now 9.1, and always had Keramik to 
my disposal. There may be two causes:

1) There went soething wrong in your basic installation. Keramik is in 
kdebase.rpm so you probably need to repair that package.

2) You inadverdently installed Thin Keramik and it has overwritten some 
of Keramik's setup files. IIRC something like that happened to me when 
I tried Thin Keramik back in SuSE 8.2, but I am not sure about this.

The screenshot looks slightly too big to me, even on my 90 dpi TFT 
monitor. So effectively you might not have used 72 dpi resolution when 
you took it.

Have a nice day,
