Fair enough, I implemented the same and now resizing is very glitchy as is the 
case with KGameRenderer (because each resize requests for a new pixmap). 
Simple resize of window from landscape to portrait mode takes 50% CPU for 
1-1.5 seconds. Is this normal with other c++ games? How do they handle 
resizing without apparent glitches?
