Trevor,
    I believe this can be cured by by going to your home directory
/home/whatever/.kde/       and  renaming the folder /share.
I usually rename it /share~
When you restart KDE it will rebuild the folder and should work fine. If you
dont see anything missing you can then delete the /share~
You can do this from the Gnome file manager or the command line
mv /home/whatever/.kde/share   /home/whatever/.kde/share~

I usually just delete /share  but  if you have any kfm bookmarks you may want
to save them, and if you rename it you can always rename it back.

Hope this gets fixed in KDE2.0!

Gene
