Sounds like the thing i experienced a long while back using ext2...
A hard reboot trashed the .kde folder BADLY, and i was forced to redo 
almost everything. (i ended up reinstalling everything instead, upgrading at 
the same time :)  )

If you have a backup, try to "recover" the .kde and see if it is corrected.
And make sure you check the filesystem!
