When I go to K (on the panel) --> Configuration
--> KDE --> LookNFeel --> Window Behavior
and bink the "Advanced" tab, I see four xinerama entries:
Enable Xinerama Support
Enable Window Resistance
Enable Window Placement Support
Enable Window Maximize Support
but they are all "greyed out" so I can not check any of them. These
are precisely the functions I'd like to have working.
In my far-and-wide web search for a solution I read somewhere that KDE 2.2.2
must be compiled with --enable-xinerama or some such. But I also read
where someone claimed that the Mdk .rpms are, in fact, so compiled and
they were still seeing the above xinerama entries grayed out.
I don't relish trying to re-compile the kde subsystem. I'm not even
sure what to re-build. I count (at least) 17 .src.rpm files in cooker
associated with kde-3.0.2 and a `rpm -qa| fgrep kde' brings up 24 kde
(2.2.2) related .rpms installed on my current Mdk 8.2 system. I think
configuring and building a kernel (which I've done) looks easier than
trying to rebuild kde.
Any light shed on these issues will (of course) be appreciated.

P.S.
It sure would be "nice" if Mandrake made one or two
_big_ .src.rpm files for KDE out of which everything got built.
