When start root-tail on KDE 3.2, I didn't see anything. I suppose root-tail didn't correctly find root window. I think so, because of when I close KDE, during one secode when KDE closed, but Xorg has finished his work yet, I see a peace of /var/log/message Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Created attachment 51970 [details] Modified root-tail ebuild, which in case of kde keyword patch root-tail
Created attachment 51971 [details, diff] patch, for correct work root-tail with KDE
In cvs, however it's package.mask'd for a very short period just so I can get a friend or two of mine that are KDE users to test it.
Unmasked. Thank you very much for the patch.
