I have the same or a similar problem with kicker: The panel is configured to disappear after some seconds, and to appear again when hitting the bottom. This works mostly perfect, but every few days the panel doesn't appear again. I have to go to kcontrol-->panel, change something (unimportant what) so that the apply button is selectable. After clicking the apply buttom the panel reappears.
The system is up to date debian testing. kicker 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-1 If I remember right, this behavior was already there in KDE 3.4. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
