           Summary: Kicker panel stays hidden permanantly, so its unusable.
           Product: kde
           Version: 3.5
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: ms at f2s.com


Version:            (using KDE 3.5.9)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I'm not sure if this counts as a crash.

The Kicker panel disappeared, and I was unable to access it.  
I had configured it to "Hide automatically", and this worked ok for a few days.
 Today the Kicker panel would not come back from its hidden state, so I was
unable to use it.  Moving the mouse pointer to the bottom of the screen didn't
work; it didn't make the panel appear.

I had to use Alt+F1 to get the panel to appear.  This enabled me to reconfigure
the panel, and I configured it to stop hiding automatically.  Then I changed it
to hide automatically again, and it now works correctly, hiding and unhiding
correctly.

This problem started when I was using Kontact, but I had other programs open at
the same time, so it may not have been Kontact which caused this problem to
start.

This bug report doesn't tell you how to reproduce the bug, so this bug report
won't be of any use unless other people have the same problem, and add more
information.
