program like xearth with kde

Does anyone have success with running a program like xearth in the root window of kde? I've set/checked the option in the "control center" -> desktop behaviour -> "programs in desktop window". If I use this together with e.g. xearth and move an kde window, it is erasing the picture that is drawn by xearth. Can these 2 work toghether? -- Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless
