Mick,
   I've used 0.4.2 a bit. It worked fine but as a KDE user it felt a
little strange. I didn't invest much time to make myself more
comfortable.

   My trading partner who is newer to Linux (about 1 year now) has
been using razor-qt for the last month or so. He was fine with 0.4.2
but when they moved the package group they also had an update to 0.5.
Unfortunately this did not produce correct resolutions on one of his
three monitors so he's back to running KDE and doing updates on razor
until that gets fixed. (TTBOMK he has not filed a bug report.)

HTH,
Mark
