KDE is unfortunately quite the buggiest WM I've ever experienced. In my
first two hours of trying it out (on -CURRENT), I experienced more
coredumps, mysterious freezes, disappearing mouse cursors, etc, than I
cared to live with. 

Unfortunately, KDE 1.0 is not a stable release. Perhaps it will become 
more usable in the future, but even then I can't see myself using it 
unless certain features were added (namely the ability to have virtual 
desktops that scroll, instead of just jumping you between them, and 
preferably a more modular installation procedure so I can get rid of all 
the bloat from utilities I don't want and will never need).

This question does not belong in -hackers anyway; I have rerouted it to 
-questions where it belongs.
