The meta info tab is showed only if KDE knows the filetype and can show you
some additional information about that file.
First I would try to right-click on different types of files to see if it does
not work at all or only on a few.
The meta information is gathered by kfile plugins and they are installed in
<kde-install-dir>/lib/kde3/kfile_something.so
And to work, they use .desktop files which are installed
<kde-install>/share/services/kfile_something.desktop and include a line with
X-KDE-Library=kfile_something
Check if you have all of them
