Being that you're most probably running Gentoo I would ask what your |
| 45 |
flag/build options might be? If you're like so many people here you |
| 46 |
probably aren't running a completely stable build. Possibly some flag |
| 47 |
is contributing to this problem? In a standard KDE forum where most |
| 48 |
folks will (like me) just be running a standard distro (like me - Kubuntu) |
| 49 |
they will (like me) tell you they don't see the problem... |
