Hi Kris ...

  I'm finding a few things "odd" with this new KDE ... figure I'm missing 
something with the new configuration settings ...

  First odd thing: Whenever I open a new window, it doesn't open within my 
screen, but has a habit of opening 'partially off screen', as if my virtual 
screen is larger then my monitor, but I don't appear to have access to the 
whole thing ... in fact, I can see my panel across the top and out the 
top/right side of my monitor ... if I scroll my mouse to the right, it moves 
over to the second monitor ...

  Second, it used to be that if I did my middle mouse on the desktop, I'd get a 
list of 'open windows', but I get nothing now ...

  As to the right monitor ... I'm getting the grey X windows screen right now, 
same as you would get if you started no WM on it ... ?
