Re: Heavy bug in kde !
Which version of KDE? Maybe you had a bad day? There is NOTHING stored outside of ~/.kde or ~/.kde4 which is responsable for a persistent bug like you describeing.

Heavy bug in kde !
Dear maintainers, I discovered a heavy bug in kde. As I do not know, which part is responsible for it, I hope, someone other know and will send a bugreport for the package (or tell it to me, so that I can report it). --- Bug description: When you want to save your settings of kde (I mean your personal settings, the one, you save with the button save settings in the K-Menu), and you restart kde again, your settings are lost. Worse, you loose all your virtual desktops, there is only one left. All windows lost their frames (looks similar to the windows, when you start compiz) and it is no more possible to move windows ! Deleting ~/.kde or ./kde4 does NOT help ! So be warned: Get your old ~/.kde and ~/.kde4 as backup, otherwise you crash your whole kde !!! I could not find out, which part and files of KDE are responsible for this mess. It is the same, when you try this as the user root. You will crash kde of user root, too ! Again, if you want to find out what happens, be very, very careful and get your old kde-settings as backup. At the moment I can confirm this behaviour only on an amd64-system, as for normal users, for root and as well as for newly added users. - If you know, please send this bugreport to the right maintainer or give me an advice, whom I have to send best.

You may want to start by posting on the Debian-KDE mailinglist. http://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/ You can reset your kde settings by deleting the .kde directory in your home folder.

Anders Hi Anders, I posted it now directly to the kde-maintainers. And: deleting .kde in the home folder does NOT work ! If you do this, there is no way, to get rid of this bug ! See my warnings !
