Hi Jason,

I meant 1 minute/second, sorry. See attached screenshot for the bug. As soon 
as i changed the speed from 1 hour/s to 1 minute/s, the trail started to 
drift away from the moon. I have just tested with the kstar version shipped 
with KDE 3.5.9 and it does not exhibit the bug.

Regards,

Médéric
