I haven't used konqueror as a file manager since kde-3.5 about 2 years ago, so I am 
not certain how it works for that purpose nowadays. I am also not sure if this could 
be your problem with windows opening full size: are you sure you have not set your 
desktop workspace form factor to netbook and/or are you using the air-netbook style? 
I had a problem a while back with the testing versions of kde-4.4 on my laptop where 
I was unable to get rid of that damned netbook crap when I had turned it on to see 
what it does (fortunately resolved now).

I don't have the renaming problem. When I select a file to rename, the portion before 
the '.' is highlighted and I can click anywhere within to type and then I backspace 
or delete to remove the portions of the old filename. Pressing delete wipes out the 
highlighted part and I can just start typing a new name. When I want to change the 
suffix after the '.', I have to move the cursor over; it doesn't get highlighted.
