Hello Is there a setting somewhere where i can shrink the kmenu icons down some, they are way to big stretches the menu way out. I don't remember these icons being so big in other distros. Is this just a SuSe thing ?

Sure! It's part of my standard procedure as soon as I install SUSE!. Go to this file: $HOME/.kde/share/kickerrc and there you will see an option called "MenuEntryHeight". Change it to something like 18 or 20. After that, in order to see the result type: dcop kicker Panel restart HTH, Jorge -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
