KDE.. a few small problems but WOW!!



Well i have got to say.. KDE rocks! I have used fvwm/fvwm2 mostly since
1995 and have installed and used enlightenment, twm, fvwm95, afterstep,
blackbox, olwm and wmaker to some extent over the years. But KDE is it! I
installed it and after 15 minutes I was hooked. Good bye fvwm.
I am also really looking forward to trying Gnome aswell but I think
that'll have to wait abit still.

I really only have 1 complaint and thats that I simply can not figure out
how to use rxvts in KDE. While I can open them they are always off to the
top/left hand side of the screen and pushed off almost completely. I can
only see the very edge of it on the screen. Can anyone tell me how to use
an rxvt in KDE??

A few smaller 'bugs??' ...
I opened the Display Settings panel and set the screensaver to 1 minute 
but now while reading/browsing the web I'd like to extend that to 5 - 10
minutes or turn it off completely for the time being. It doesnt work. For
some reason even tho i've made the changes and hit Apply and OK it
continues to turn on after 1 minute. Any ideas?? 
Also going with the above.. it does allow the _changing_ of screensavers.

For some reason I find that there are times when the desktop simply locks
up for a few minutes then unfreezes. No disk activity and no load to cause
resourses to be at fault.

Anyone know of a fix for these annoyances ??
