Sorry, I meant "are inserted into the taskbar of the last *virtual desktop*". That is, logging out and logging in again, it happened two times now that in the last virtual desktop, in its "taskbar" (the collection of buttons for open windows) I found "all" windows of all other virtual desktop been collected ("all" I couldn't check, and so I wrote below "Dolphin windows"). So a clear bug. On Tue, Sep 21, 2010 at 01:28:15PM +0200, Will Stephenson wrote:

1. From "time to time" it happens that after a restart all Dolphin-windows are inserted into the taskbar of the last window. I can't understand this statement. Windows don't have taskbars. Do you mean
1) 'from time to time all Dolphin windows are inserted [grouped] in the taskbar _entry_ of the last Dolphin window?'
or do you mean
2) 'from time to time all Dolphin windows are inserted in the _titlebar_ of the last window'
1) sounds like the taskbar entries filled the space available to them, so the taskbar grouped the entries from the same app - middle click to expand
2) sounds like you would be using tabbed window-management (the Grouping entry on the window (alt-f3) menu, but I need more details to understand the problem. Please give steps to reproduce with a new user.
Unfortunately, it doesn't happen every time. The next time I will try to make a bug report.
2. How to find out efficiently on which virtual desktop you are on? It seems that the virtual-desktop-button should show some blackness, but either if the virtual desktop is empty or has a bit more windows on it, that this becomes invisible. A solution could be to disable the useless attempt of showing windows in the buttons, but I couldn't find yet how to achieve that.
The look of the pager depends on the workspace theme. In the Air [openSUSE] default theme, the pager widget in the panel highlights the active virtual desktop with a brighter, larger specular highlight. The 'geek' desktop theme, downloadable from kde-look.org with 'Get New Themes', has a no gradients, 1 px black outline look and a shading effect only on the active desktop in the pager.
Thanks, the geek-theme works much better! Still, to figure out on which desktop you are is very hard. However, otherwise it looks much better (had "Air" before). Especially the problem that much information (certain pop-ups, the calender, certain menus) where nearly unreadable, due to black background and grey font, is solved now!
Another thing you can do is enable 'Desktop Switch On-Screen Display' in the virtual desktops->switching module to see the desktop number on switch.
Thanks for that, this also helps (especially now with the Geek-setting I can actually see it (couldn't before)). It is also helpful to remember from where you came. Thanks again.
