What version of KDE?  I know that I've seen that it's mapped in GNOME 
(though oddly at the moment, that doesn't seem to be working for me here 
- ALT+F1 does, though, maybe that'll work in KDE as well - I hit that 
every once in a while by mistake when hitting ALT-F2 to launch a program 
- the GNOME equivalent of Start->Run in Windows)

Dunno if there is one - GNOME user that I am. :-)

That seems to depend on the video card.  I have no problems with this on 
my system with an nVidia card in it, but the ATI drivers have always been 
problematic for some reason.
