KDE4.X - Does it work with small res?

Hello,

Installing Arch on a friends laptop. He has a laptop with 1280x800. How well does this resolution work with KDE4.2? Or do the icons and menus not "fit" well?

Thanks.

Should be fine. Perhaps take a Chakra, Kubuntu, Fedora, or openSUSE LiveCD for a spin to see?

Since when is it a small resolution ? No problem at all.

I never thought about throwing a openSUSE disc in it...good idea. And yes, I guess it isn't that small of a res...

Thanks.

Re: KDE4.X - Does it work with small res?

I sometimes use KDE on my 1280x800 laptop screen, it's fine. I prefer using my 22" monitor, but KDE is still perfectly usable on a 14.1" screen.
