I used the Alt + Tab keyboard shortcut extensively on my 7.2 workstation. Last week I did the Yast2 online update. Now the Alt + Tab keystroke is busted - it presents the control center window right in the middle of the desktop, but it does not disapear after you've tabbed to the app you want to switch to. I need to kill KDE in order to recover - and don't have proper use of the keyboard sufficient to exit or save work I've got going in the other apps (arrrgh!). I didnt think the KDE was updated in the process. I have kde 2.1.2 on the machine. Any thoughts ? thanks Rich
