I strongly agree. KDE 3.2 is sweet. I particularly love Konsole:

ctrl-alt-n       - create a new tab
ctrl-alt-s       - name tab
shift-arrow      - move to adjacent tabs
ctrl-shift-arrow - relocate tab 


Also, right-click a tab and select "Monitor for Activity/Silence" is very
useful. The nice thing about 3.2 is that it now displays a popup when
there's activity in one of the Konsole tabs. So I can be surfing in
Mozilla and when someone sends me a message in centericq, I get a little
popup telling me.

The only annoying problem is arts... It causes all sorts of problems with
other sound/video programs and I haven't figured out how to disable it
yet. Anyone found a solution for this?
