I'll keep trying to reproduce this but so far all seems fine on this box, it 
is going to be one of the hard ones to track down I guess.

Yes Khotkeys is running, I also created a few shortcuts and all worked fine,

I have not seen this problem since 3.5.x, sorry this reply does not help you 
much. I guess someone may ask what video drivers etc, I use NVidia hardware 
and Livna's rpms and have just started to play with the Desktop Effects and 
all is working well.

I have just found KGet still does not work, I thought it was fixed in trunk so 
I'll check kde.bugs and the kget mail lists. Does this work for anyone else?

Also some missing Icons in Konq's search engine bar (google for example)
