Well, Not true;

        I have been using compiz with kde3 since the 0.5.2 days and kicker
integrations wasn't a problem. In kde4 the problem looks more like a focus
(window counting) issue than anything else.

        As for the kde4 desktop effects, they are getting there, but there is no
replacement for 'expo' and the kde effect look ragged compared to the compiz
counterparts.

        Now I wrote this thread not to debate the pluses or minuses of kde de 
verses
compiz integration, but to get an answer as to what may be going on that is
preventing the 'plasmoid' panel from unhiding. That's what I'm trying to find
out. Anybody got an idea? What mother-focusing problem do we have here?
