I have something that seems to be same on my 4.10-Stable with XFree86 4.4 , but it only happens with xmgrace (graphics application) and nedit (ascii text editor); these two applications have in common that they both use OpenMotif. Closing the application and restarting it, solves the problem. I blamed OpenMotif for doing funny things with my Xserver, but I have never got any clue how to investigate the problem, since it seems to occur ad random. Oh, I'm not using KDE, but have Xfce instead. Regards, Rob. _______________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
