Logging out/in didn't help. So, now I'm going to try your other
suggestion: updates. I did get some updates from the internet during
the installation, if I remember correctly. If that is not what you
mean, then there is more: in the control center I can choose
'updates'. All security updates are 320MB... if I add the bugfixes
update, that makes 691MB!

I just want to make sure that I don't waste my university monthly
download limit on this if this is not what you mean... can you confirm
these are the updates I need to do?

Also, please let me know if I should have sent a reply instead of an
e-mail to the whole list.

Thanks for your help!

Just done the updates?

If not do them, then log out of KDE and back in.

I've seen this behavior sometimes after installing upgrades. Logging out of
KDE and back in fixes it.
