           Summary: alt-tab stops working during upgrade of kde4.1 to 4.1.1
                    with freebsd ports
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: FreeBSD Ports
        OS/Version: FreeBSD
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: rgilaard at yahoo.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.1.1)
OS:                FreeBSD
Installed from:    FreeBSD Ports

I normally just have a firefox window open and at the same time have knsole
open to upgrade my ports. Yesterday after starting the upgrade process of
kde4.1 to kde4.1.1 with the portugrade utility, I saw I could not switch
between windows anymore by using the alt-tab combination.

And when I minimzed a application like firfox or konsole, I "lost" it
completely. It was still running somewhere but I could not get back to it.

I did check that I stayed in the same desktop nr (1 till 4) but I could not
find my minimized windows again. Also they didn't shoiw up on my panel below so
when alt-tab stopped working I had to ctrl-alt-backspace to shut kde4 off and
get a new console where I used screen -R to reattach to the upgrade session.
Firefox was gone forever.

Questiona:
1) Where do the windows go when you minimize them and they don't show up in the
panel?
2) Why does alt-tab stop working?

Brgds
