For a long time I've grown used to ALT+F2 to launch krunner and away I go w/ things, whether opening up konsole, kate to edit Kubuntu documentation, or whatever program/application I wanted to do. *Today I did a fresh install of Kubuntu Beta on my Dell Mini 9 and seem to have lost krunner from starting by default. *In my Oneric VM it still seems to function correctly but haven't really done a bunch of testing.

I can call from konsole krunner and then do the good ole ALT+F2 w/o a problem.
Am i missing something? *

Sounds like a symlink in .kde/Autostart isn't being setup properly.

The normal krunner and the runner embedded in the plasma-netbook search and
launch are not fully compatible, so at some point we made a change to not
start the regular krunner if you're running netbook. If you hadn't
reinstalled, then you probably kept your old setting.

I never noticed any problems, and I reenabled it on two of my systems that run netbook.

I will provide some interesting use cases for documentation if it is on for some and some for not. *I know there are references to krunner *(alt+f2) in the documentation. *Hope it won't mess people out. *Will have to figure out how to note it isn't enabled by default and how to do that in the netbook section maybe?
