Hello I am the rdesktop package maintainer in Debian. I got a bug report yesterday about the 'composite' extension causing the kde desktop to freeze. See attached mail for more info.
Question; Is this a known problem, and if so, will it be fixed in the next release? Thanks you -- Tomas Fasth <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GnuPG Fingerprint: DC7B 9453 7F26 1BF9 6B21 9F90 C187 7355 9FE8 D504
