Consider yourself lucky. My kcontrol got messed up when I was doing
maintenance as root. Now the kcontrol has an empty menu window for not only
root but every user. I've tried moving .kde and then logging in again. It
still wouldn't work but at least I could restore the old .kde directory again
afterwards.
