2008-10-30 Thread Owen Tuz
** Description changed:

  No package hint given because I'm not sure, but my guess would be that
  the problem is either in kdebase-plasma or kdeplasma-addons.
  
  I'm using Kubuntu 8.10 beta with all the latest updates and whatnot.
  
  A (seemingly) unrelated attempt to start wineconsole with incorrect
  syntax seems to have been the trigger for something - the display
  dissolved into colours for a bit, and now my panel won't fit plasmoids
  properly - while the icons appear the usual size, the space they take up
  is huge, and can't be resized. For instance, the clock takes up almost
  the entire panel by itself, meaning I have no room for anything else if
  I want it. The system tray and task managers have a similar effect.
  
  I've tried uninstalling the entire kubuntu-desktop package and
  reinstalling it, but the only effect this has had is to disappear the
  desktop folder view...
  
  I don't know what to give you as technical info, but ask and ye shall
  receive
  
   - Thanks, 
  Owen
+ 
+ Update: The display disruption which started it all has been continuing
+ - it seems to be linked to use of the terminal in some way. It's making
+ KDE hard to use for any length of time, and this combined with some
+ problems with Ubuntu Studio have persuaded me to change to Gnome.
+ 
+ If all goes well with that I may remove KDE completely - I don't know if it's 
worth leaving this here (I know one other person on the internet had the same 
problem, but that's all I could find) or removing it. 
+ Not the most helpful approach, I know, but if my display is going to dissolve 
into colours regularly I can't get any work done on here - I tried to take a 
screenshot with KSnapshot but it either disappears completely or worsens so I 
can't see the program at all.

2008-10-30 Thread Owen Tuz
Afraid not - I've tried adding and removing all the widgets, but my
problem is that some of them take up more space than they need to - a
slightly dodgy illustration would be that the system tray is this big

|--|

but it takes up this much space on the panel (which, when moving it, can
be seen as a highlighted space around it)

||

The clock's even worse.

At the moment I've got an application launcher, task manager and system
tray which work together fairly happily, but I have no space to add
anything else.

It's possible that the Task Manager got removed from the panel accidentally.
If you go to the Add Widgets list and drag that to the very edge of your panel, 
does that fix things?
