I need some help! (BTW, I'm running KDE4.3.1/RH9/linux-2.4.20-24.9 and it has been working flawlessly. KDE was installed from rpms from KDE a mirror.) Infrequently, my KDE installation doesn't remember what applications and applets that I've added to the panel. When that happens, KDE does not show any applications or programs when I click on the "Application Starter Icon;" except that Run, LockScreen, and Logout still appear. All of my desktop icons (applications) are still present and still work; however, I've lost my all desktop settings; e.g., single-click, NumLock, etc. Also, all the applications are missing when I right-click the panel and click "Applications" to add an icon to the panel for starting the app. Furthermore, there is no KDE control panel. In the past, when that happened it has been because I've updated KDE or the linux kernel and the solution has been to logout and login for KDE or to reboot for the kernel. I may have shot myself in the foot (so to speak/type). I went to /tmp/ and deleted all the files/directories that had my username in them. Although, that didn't seem to cause any more deterioration and KDE just recreated some of them. Is there any way to recover/recreate my KDE-menu/desktop-panel?
