Hi Blackbox community,

I have several questions concerning Blackbox. If you think they are off topic 
here, please send or guide me to a forum where I can post my questions - I'm  
still a bloody newbie ;-}

First of all: I've got BB up and running smooth as silk - thanks to your 
previous help.

However, the more I'm using it, the more questions arise. BTW, I've managed to 
include bbpager - perfect!

01. In KDE I can adjust the acceleration of the mouse. But BB doesn't read 
this setting. So I have to start the KDE config tool, go to the peripherals 
and click 'apply' at the advanced mouse options. Then the acceleration is 
turned on in BB as well. Is there any trick to load these mouse options with 
BB??

02. I dl the bbappconfig and tried to install it. I can run ./configure, but 
when I run make all I get is errors. Is there a bug in my mind?? 

03. Transparent Konsole causes problems. Typing anything at the command line 
is covered with grey or black. Modifying the 'schema' with the KDE 
configuration doesn't help at all. I've done some research, but the only 
thing I've discovered was something with 'aterm'. Is there any solution to 
make the Konsole window transparent without having to install the aterm 
stuff? (this would really cause a buffer overflow in my brain...). The 
strange part of it is that the transparency in KDE works fine, even when I 
resize the window to max... but I guess that's another gui and thus another 
config or code or whatever.

04. Screensaver: while in BB, there is an option to change the screensaver. 
Usually, my screen just goes blank. But when I select a screen saver like 
i.e. the matrix, the screensaver starts immediately - right on top of the 
wallpaper, behind all open apps. That's kind of weird. I can't get rid of it 
unless I exit (restart doesn't help) and startx again. Anybody with a 
solution here? Do I have to include the screensaver into the .xinitrc?

Thanks in advance,
