that doesn't seem to work for konq-e (neither konq-e
"normal", nor konq-e compiled in kiosk mode.  it does
work obviously with regular konqueror, that is a
non-embedded version).  The konq-e --help just opens a
browser window, with no list of available options. And
none of the "regular" konqueror options seem to be
recognized by konq-e.  Any other hints?

thanks, the -geometry option indeed worked. However it
is a bit strange as the list of konqueror options (the
normal, non-embedded version) provided via 'konqueror
--help' indicates that --geometry (with double dash)
should be used. Actually, the regular konqueror seems
to accept both versions: with single and double dash.
Is it possible my konq-e installation has not been
completely correct as I seem to be missing some
features (mainly no output to --help option)?

regards, Jacek
