Yeah I meant to say they reported it fixed in 3.2.1, not just any old 3.2 build. So I hope you got 3.2.1. It does bother me that they've declared the issue resolved on the basis of only two people reporting they haven't experienced it (yet), and one of these is a dev responsible for handling the bug report. Might they be jumping ahead of themselves trying to get rid of this nasty hot potato? "Works for me" just seems a snap judgment given the particularly stealthy and non-reproduceable nature of...

Looks like we woke them up. They've just marked the bug as "resolved" for KDE 3.2. I won't be upgrading for at least a month so I can't confirm this first-hand. For any and all who are interested: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59113

Found a bug report for it in the KDE bug database. Apparently they've known about this problem for over a year. It was once marked "Resolved", but is now marked "Reopened". I wonder why. :lol: Here's the link: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59113 There are 355 votes for it so far, but I'm going to add my vote as well just in case.

He's not joking. I have this problem with KDE 3.1.4 using Konqueror in file explorer mode. Occasionally when I click on a folder in the navigation tree on the left to open it and then move the mouse cursor, the folder will stick to the cursor. The really weird part is that it sticks *after* I have released the mouse button. It's very annoying having to click on the folder again to drop its "ghost".

Quoted Original von Rinse Well, my desktop curswor problem dissapeared as soon as I installed KDE 3.2 on my SuSE 9.0 box. Interesting. Unfortunately when I upgraded to KDE 3.2 on my SuSE box a couple of weeks ago it broke all kinds of stuff. Had to do a format/reinstall of SuSE to get a working KDE 3.1 again. :cry: At this time SuSE's KDE 3.2 upgrade is only partially complete, i.e. it doesn't include kdebase3-SuSE, etc. That leads me to believe that when SuSE finally makes a full release of KD...

*Bump* I've been frustrated by this problem myself with SuSE 9 + KDE 3.1.4 + XFree86 4.3. It seems like kdm is overriding the xdm settings because changing the various xdm config files doesn't have any effect. Anyone figure this one out yet?

Strange, I posted a reply earlier but now it's gone. Anyhow, thanks for your help! It worked and my TT fonts are scaling properly now.

I'm using the MS TT fonts under KDE and they scale abnormally compared to under Windows XP at its default resolution. Either kdm or xdm (can't figure out which) insists on setting the font resolution at 81 dpi. This makes, for example, "Arial 10" look smaller under KDE than on Windows. I'd like to set the resolution at 96 dpi like Windows, especially so web sites will render closer to how they were intended (unfortunately the web is designed mostly on 'doze machines :cry. Setting dpi under Gnome...
