    KDE4 Issues

    • No admin button in system settings
    • GTK-QT not working, Firefox looks awful
      • installed gtk-qt-engine-kde4 and it appears in system settings, but has no effect on firefox, thunderbird, gimp, etc.
      • Other have this problem no solutions
    • Firefox cannot properly set helper applications (ktorrent, okular, etc)
    • Cannot set khotkeys for media keys on logitech keyboard
      • khotkeys is "in a bit of a broken state" no known workarounds
    • Dolphin has no "Open Terminal here" option an icon can be added to the toolbar
    • 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 Flash 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?
    • KDE tries to start applications I had running on logout every time I logout. I do not want it to do this!
