I see now that it is expected the next stable will ship with 4.4.4. Has there been any word about when 4.4.x will be moved to testing? I'm really hesitant to introduce all the libraries that will be dragged in if I install KDE from unstable into a production environment. I even hesitate with testing but we are so desperate to make Kontact work with Zimbra that we would take a chance - John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

(All that horrible wobbly, wavy, shimmery, spinning > transparent glitz.) That boils down to "it's on by default". Just go turn them off. And the defaults do not have wobbly windows, wavy effects, or anything shimmering. Nothing spins either, but the Alt-tab dialogue does slide. There is plenty of transparency, though, and I hate that too. So I turn it off. My mother suffers from what she calls "vertigo" and the effects do not upset her. Nor do they upset the autistics that I volunteer with. They are merely an annoyance to those annoyed by them, nothing wild. > 2. ctrl+tab does not move to the next window. Do you mean between tabs?

It works that way in KDE 4 as well, so long as you have opened them from Krunner in the past. That is how I open all my applications. > 4. Alt+F1 does not bring up the menu.
