Last attempt at fixing it. You say it works fine in a root KDE but not in a
user. When I had a problem with the user window on initial install, I logged
on as root, added a fake user so I could delete the old one (but kept the
files). I went to the original /home/[USER] directory and renamed it ("mv
/home[USER] /home/[USER.old]" and reinstalled my user, then deleted the fake
one.
Logging back in as user, I copied the documents, bookmarks, addressbook and a
few .kdelink files to the proper places in the "renewed user" and then
removed "rm -r /home/[USER.old]" (BE CAREFULL!!!) the old version. It
corrected the problem. It appears that something was set up wrong or had
been corrupted in the old files.
You might try that. It takes about half an hour.
