K3b multiple windows problem

I have this strange problem with k3b ever since upgrading to the latest kde 3.1.2 version from the kde ftp site (I run SuSE 8.2): the main k3b window is empty, and if I do Settings>show directories / show audio player /show document header, a new window opens, which is not "nested" in the first one. Also, k3b does not remember the windows settings: if I close down and restart, I get an empty window again. Any ideas? Thanks FX -- ______________________ Courtesy of SuSE Linux http://www.nibz.org
