I noticed the wallpaper changer thing myself and think it's great to finally have that horrible dropdown list replaced with something decent. On the other hand, since the 4.5 update my Plasma-workspace process has crashed everytime I login to KDE via KDM. It respawns 15 seconds later and works fine but it always dies once right after login. Also, dolphin seems to be really slow and laggy.

Rob, Don't forget, for plasma restarts, there are only 3 commands required. If you find you need to restart plasma (or just to check for messages during restart), put the following in a little script called 'rsplasma' (or whatever you want to call it): #!/bin/bash kbuildsycoca4 # 'k'de 'build' 'sy'stem 'co'nfig 'ca'che kquitapp plasma-desktop >/dev/null 2>&1 # quit plasma kstart plasma-desktop & >/dev/null 2>&1 # restart the darn thing and pray get rid of the '>/dev/null 2>&1' to see the bazillion lines of gibberish and errors. That may help narrow the issue. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
