    Default Dapper Drake/Kubuntu oddities

    Just upgraded to Dapper. Actually I did clean install of it.

    1. Fast User switching either be missing or gone.
    2. Kontact no longer has a "News" tab. I had to install knode.
    3. The upgrades break my nvidia-glx install every time!

    Will the above be fixed in the final release?

    Thanks,
    ~S

    Wait.... after installing knode, and restarting Kontact, I now have the
    news tab. :-)

    Any ideas on the fast user switching. That one is turning out to be a PIA.

    I know that, when I start X manually from the CLI by issuing $startx at
    boot time I do not get the fast user switching. If KDE opens on its own
    then the option is there.
