  ok, now I was able to reproduce it.

  I'd recommend you doing so, if you can. You'll probably get better
  results (here we can only forward it ourselves, and that introduces an
  extra layer of communication).

  Your description above, plus the fact that it only happens in CDE
  mode, should suffice. Please write back telling the kde bug number if
  you finally submit it to KDE BTS.

  thanks,
