As you may already heard KDE 4.2.2 is out. It's mainly a bugfix and stability release.

Mandriva packages are available here.

And worked out quite well.

Experienced some improvement in performance.

But on the other hand i am missing titlebars above any programscreen this far.

I think I had this when I upgraded to 4.2. I had to disable, I think, legacy window support IIRC.

Exactly. that issue came by before, and then it solved the problem by disabling legacy fullscreen support in Compiz.

But this workaround doesn't bring the solution this time.

No issues here- using Archlinux/kdemod 4.2.2 with nvidia card and aiglx/compiz-fusion.

It's getting better, and I decided to keep it on my desktop. On my 12.1" laptop it simply looks very cluttered and has usability issues- I will just stay on XFCE4.

Rats! I may just wait for 2009.1 and see what theyre offering. KDE4.2 is good for the minute, and i dont wanna risk breaking it.

lol and to think kde4 was designed for embedded devices...now when you try and suggest to plasma devs to make it an *option* to remove some of this clutter...well better put on some asbestos underware.... 

 

this workaround removes some of the clutter:
