Indeed, Intel I9xxGM graphic cards appear to be a permanent pain under
KDE.

Fairly enough, Gnome or XFCE hasn't got any problem with them and runs
like a charm on the widely spread notebooks withI9xx GM graphic cards.

For the time being, my favourite workaround is to use UBUNTU with a
Gnome session, where I have retrofitted the KDE desktop from Synaptics
without using the KDE session at all.

So I can use Dolphin and many other KDE applications with the most chances of having them running the same way they would under KDE.
Without the "sleeping" KDE package, you can experience some discrepancies especially in the font handling and I believe the QT applications to be less stable.


Of course, I would really appreciate to have KDE fully running...
regards.
