It's been fixed. Go to kcontrol --- Desktop --- General and turn off the
Desktop menu.
RedHat's 1.92 build is now 3 weeks old. please try the one from cooker and
realize it is updated almost daily to fix problems, add menus, and
generaly make better.
I am the packager of kde2 for Mandrake so please contact me if you have
questions or issues.
Thanks,
Chris
