Okay, cool... apparently you just need to upgrade KNode :-)

Here's what I am doing on the current KNode:

I go to Group -> Subscribe to Newsgroups.  At the top of the dialog is
a "Filter" linedit.  I type "kernel" in it As I type "kernel", the
sorted list of newgroups updates itself in realtime to all groups that
match that search.  By the time I finish typing "kernel", there are 9
groups left showing.. one of which is
"comp.os.ms-windows.nt.kernel-mode".  Simple!

This is KNode 0.5.2.  I'm not entirely sure what version was in KDE
2.1.1... but this is definitely in the KDE 2.2alpha release and will
be in KDE 2.2 stable when it's released.
