Hi. I am adding my problem to this cause I feel they may be somewhat related.
My System is openSuSE 11.2 and on initial installation I only allowed 2
desktops. One of the things that I thought was exciting in KDE4 was the Desktop
views with Windows or Widgets slanted or turned to one side. I still have not
been able to figure out how to do it and in reading various comments on the Web
it looked like I needed at least 4 Desktops. So, with 3 terminal windows, two
Firefox windows, one VMware window open, plus my Desktop folder and a couple
other icons on the actual desktop(Desktop 1)... I went into "Configuration
Desktop" and increased the number of Desktops to 4. After clicking on "Apply"
my active desktop lost the Desktop Folder, changed the background and wiped
everything. Fortunately, all the windows(this being one of them) were still
available via the Task Bar -but- No Desktop Folder and No icons. There isn't an
intuitively obvious way to get my Desktop Folder back. Maybe on re-boot it will
-BUT- it really shouldn't have happened in the first place and this change
shouldn't require a re-boot... or should it?? IF I am unhurt and crying, cause
it comes back after a re-boot... I apologize.
