At least twice in the last few days I have seen the same behavior
running konqueror in KDE 2.2. My system is woody, running
xserver-xfree8 4.1.0-16. Someone else recently reported similar
behavior in KDE 3 on a KDE list. At the time I thought it was a KDE
problem. I'm starting to wonder if it's an X 4 problem.
