default, there was no start button etc. What's happened?????? Obviously
KDE has freaked out in some way, but how? Where are the files that
configure the look and feel of my desktop kept? I've looked in
~/Desktop and ~/.kde4 and there was nothing there.
The files should be in ~/.kde4/share/config, so if ~/.kde4 is empty you
have a problem. Let's hope you also have a backup.
Had a look, "everything" appears to be there - no idea as to why I
originally said ~/.kde4 was empty. The dates on all of the files are all
over the place, that is from some time last year when I built the
machine up to basically now so it looks like they are the correct files.
Is there an environmental/system variable that should point to ~/.kde4
that I should check to see is correct?
