KDE4 Issues

• Is there a way to safely turn off desktop effects if they are causing crashing? Like safemode? Or some sort of config file?
• Can't add proper shortcuts to non-kde applications in menus or quick launch
• No admin button in system settings
  • They know about this Schedules/KDE4/4.2_Release_Schedule
  • do sudo /usr/lib/kde4/bin/systemsettings
• GTK-QT not working, Firefox looks awful
• Firefox cannot properly set helper applications (ktorrent, okular, etc)
• Cannot set khotkeys for media keys on logitech keyboard
• Dolphin has no "Open Terminal here" option an icon can be added to the toolbar
• Ark does not seem to handle tar.bz2 files (extracts an empty directory)
• Amarok crashes every time I run it (need to compile amarok 2.0)
• Mixer control have no effect on volume
  • Used to have a little volume bar in my kicker that I could control with my mouse wheel. WANT.
• Sound works right only some of the time. Startup sound starts playing fine, and then gets cutoff
  • Phonon sometimes gives weird sound failing message
• Surround sound does not work at all. Conflicting instructions on how to set this up, but no settings in KDE4 anywhere that I can see
• Kaffeine and Amarok appear to be stealing Xine from each other
  • (Kaffeine is working on a KDE4 release coming soon. Dragon player doesn't work/has no settings)
• Flash randomly stops working in Firefox. It will start out fine, and then after a bit will only show grey boxes where flash should be. 64bit thing? Why would it do this? It seems this is a problem only with the official ubuntu firefox package. The mozilla package works fine
• Dolphin has no right-click extract options ark can't handle this?
• khotkeys is "in a bit of a broken state" no known workarounds
