I'm unable to reproduce this on my lenny/KDE system, however there are
enough reports of it around the web that it obviously is a real problem.
Upstream have proposed a different fix to the one mentioned in the
Gentoo bug report. I have attached a copy of the patch - can you try
it and let us know if it fixes the problem for you.
