In Personal Settings > Appearance > Style (2nd Tab) > Fine Tuning :
Selected 'Text alongside Icons' (instead of 'Text under icons') . This
solved the top of icon text being cut-off.
However, it reverts to cut-off text if 'Text under icons' is opted for.

(Images [5] & [6] below show proper icons & text on toolbar)

Thanks,

Jay

And the nVidia Driver (180.29) for the nVidia GeForce 8400GS Graphics

Card is 180.29

linux__:~ # rpm -qa | grep -i nvidia

x11-video-nvidiaG02-180.29-0.1

nvidia-gfxG02-kmp-pae-180.29_2.6.27.18_0.3-0.1

One last shot, perhaps the display size in xorg.conf is incorrect???



I don't think there's  any problem with xorg.conf, since the display

in KDE 3.5 and XFCE is fine.

That doesn't necessarily follow. There are known problems with the NVidia
driver and KDE4 because KDE4 uses parts of the driver that were not
previously used. NVidia have acknowledged the problem and already done quite
a lot of work on it. It's possible that your driver still has issues. To
test that theory, back up your xorg.conf then change the driver to 'nv' and
see whether the problem persists. If it does you can revert to the version
you are using now, but at least you will have eliminated one possibility.
