Normally KDE 2.1 should have native support for dockable apps. Extract from http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-2.1-beta1.html : > The panel (Kicker) has enjoyed significant improvements. An external > taskbar has been included (familiar to KDE 1 users), support for sub-panels > has been added (which can be separately sized and positioned), an improved > external pager (Kasbar) has been added, and support for applets has been > improved (including support for WindowMaker dock applets). I haven't tested it yet. -- Thibaut Cousin email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] web : http://clrwww.in2p3.fr ------------------------------------------------------------------- Teach me passion for I fear it`s gone.
