We recently completed a large project to allow TDE to function properly
with KDE; we are currently working on resolving the issues introduced
during that project.  I am somewhat surprised that you have run into such
significant problems, as I have been running the nightlies on multiple
test systems and had not noted these difficulties.  I will do a clean
install on another test box to see if I can replicate this problem.

Sorry for the inconvenience!
