I'm not in KDE at the moment, so this might be GTK-specific, but you could also try holding down <shift>, then click-n-hold the side frame of the window to move it up and down. Better solution: get a graphics card that can handle 1024 x 768 : it seems to be the minimum that X designers plan for. If you juggle the screen fonts a little, 1024 x 768 can be quite useable even on a 14" monitor - that's what I have - and something like an ATI Mach 64 card should be very cheap. Are you SURE your current card won't support a better resolution? It took me most of a day to persuade Mandrake 7.2 to get up to 1024 x 768 and i still don't know why it suddenly worked, but I did it eventually (mdk 8.x is much better at this, thanks guys).
