I like it to, the only reason I started down this path was the same stripe appears in the login manager. With KDE 3.3 from supplementary, the shutdown icon in the menu is missing which slides all of the text to the left, over the gray stripe. Purely cosmetic of course, but annoying. You can get rid of it there too by adding the below to /etc/X11/qtrc (if your using Thin Keramik for the login manager style) [ThinKmk] MenuStripe=#ffffff Your right though, I don't see the same settings as applying to Plastik.

Actually I *like* the gray stripe and was using Plastik. Changing to Thin Keramik brought it back. I wish there was a way to get the stripe in Plastik. -- Cheers, Trey
