Hello,

I installed Cooker yesterday, but I am not impressed by some of the
default KDE settings. Especially fonts were awful by default. I could
fix it by replacing the adobe-helvetica font to the Sans font in
kcontrol and Konqueror and by switching on anti-aliasing. Also in
konsole, the default Fixed font is really ugly, the Courier 10 pitch
font does look much better. Could these settings be the default?

Another problem: When you're using 1024x768 resolution, there is too
less space in the taskbar for active tasks. I would propose to remove
some of the application icons from the kicker (they could be put on the
desktop instead?), by not showing the date by default and by lowering the
number of virtual desktops to 2. This gives at least reasonably enough
space for tasks.

Another cosmetic problem: there seems to be too much space between
desktop icons and their text (also in Konqueror when using icon view).
