Jpg support is an issue and has been sine the first compile of KDE by me. I am sure its something I am not doing properly when building but I have yet to figure it out. Konqueror had no GIF support on original KDE, I fixed that issue, but this jpg one is elusive? Luckily they work in Konqueror, and I changed all the wallpapers to png. I asked around some KDE developers and I am not sure what the problem is. My guess is the linker in scratchbox, but I dont know. I have been working around it, it is a known limitation of my KDE builds at this point.


Also I have been meaning to say it everyone here, if there is some setting you think I should change to make things easier, please let me know and I will consider including it. Also if you have color schemes or anything you can save them and send them to me for inclusion.
Thanks for the information re: jpg issue. At least I know I'm not crazy Making them into png's is not a big deal at all.

As for some setting that would make things easier... I'm not even sure it can be done - but resizing those windows that are still too big for the Nokia screen. As a work around, I've mapped one of my buttons to "move window" so I press the button and then use the stylus to move the window up so I can tap 'OK' or 'Cancel' etc...

That and making the Applications Menu (KDE start button) easier to navigate with the stylus.

I've do got some button/keyboard shortcuts that would make sense to have by default, but then again - the real beauty of using KDE is that every single user can set it up and tweak it to what makes them happy
