I still have the same problem with KDE 2.1.2. I experiened it even with
gnome. I think it must be the graph driver. My workaround is, when it
occures I press CTRL-ALT-ESC and then either the skull appears or the
forzen application disappears. The problem comes up if the panel
disappears. Anyone knows how to restart the panel in KDE?

I really could live without this annoyance, anyone? There was someone
posting a workaround on this some time ago, but I lost the letter.

thx,
J
