In KDE4 the problem of missing (off-screen) menus also exists. There is also no taskbar visible (!!!). In KDE 3.5 the problem is not there at all. For comparison, I attached the output of xrandr --query --verbose for both kde versions, the difference is interesting: diff xrandr--query--verbose-kde3.5.txt xrandr--query--verbose-kde4.1.txt 1,2c1,2 < Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 600, maximum 1024 x 1024 < VGA disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) ---

What seems relevant to me is that KDE 3.5 seems to detect that the only active (!) screen is 600 lines, even if another one is configured (but inactive, since it is not connected). kdm and KDE 4.1 do not detect this, or do not use this information appropriately. I also tried failsafe (I believe it is, twm with a blue background. I tried 10 times to hit the menu item blindly and got KDE4 8 times). It also has 768 lines, and again lines 600 through 767 are below the screen. Line 0 is visible. KDE 3.5.10 rocks! It is the only system smart enough to give me a taskbar at the lowest visible line of the screen! xwininfo -root shows 600 lines for the root window here, the only correct result I ever got on this machine. gdm does not seem to be installed, so I could not test it. I did not find an option in yast to configure the login screen, either (which one to use, I mean). Hope this info still helps. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
