Can you please describe the steps you performed?  Is this with -Q or
in a session where you turned the menu bar on later?

Is there no way to turn the scroll bar off under KDE?  Can you turn
the scroll bar on under GNOME?

I think so.  But I'd like to see at least one or two other persons
with sufficiently new GTKs kick in (Stephen, pretty please) so we get
a more complete picture of which problems may occur.

Thanks, martin
