Hello, 
I'm not sure if this is relevant, but I have been using Quanta on KDE4 
(Kubuntu) for about 6 months now. Maybe I just don't use the advanced 
features, but I haven't had any problems. 
I agree that Quanta is a very good tool, and is probably one of the big 
reasons that I've stuck with Linux. 
Ray
