KDE 3.2 Kicker menu and Windows key

[Frank Murphy <frankmurphy@fmailbox.com>]

I noticed that since upgrading to KDE 3.2, the Windows keys cause the Kicker 
menu to be activated. This is really irritating because I have been using the 
right Windows key as X's Multi_key (to write accented characters). So now, I 
have no way to write accented chars.

I tried to see what was going on with xev, but the key events are intercepted 
before xev sees them.

Does anyone here know what's going on with this? Is it an X problem or KDE (or 
both)? Anyone able to disable it?

Thanks,
Frank
