    thank you!!! it was driving me mad..

    in the bug-comments there’s a hint that killing kwin isn’t neccessary

    kwin –replace

    should work as well (will try on next login)

  2. Thomas Coopman says:

    I think it is better to use kwin –replace (instead of killall kwin;kwin) and it works also!

  3. Or even ‘kquitapp kwin && kwin’ as it can be a little less harsh than killall for KDE programs.

    I am seldom interested in reading topics in this arena since they are typically boring, but this material is unique. I am quite impressed with your writing and your efforts.
