Description dominique 2010-06-15 09:03:04 UTC 
Description of problem:
I test the rawhide with kde and with the last update of kde (kde 4.4.85) I lost my setting.
For example I choose a background and two plasmoids, but when I re-start my rawhide I have no background (it's black...) and the plasmoids don't appear on my desktop (but there are marked under execution in "add plasmoids")



How reproducible:
allway

Steps to Reproduce:
1.choose a background and plasmoids
2.re-start rawhide
  
Actual results:
background is black and plasmoids don't appear

Expected results:
see my backgroud and plasmoids

I think this is a known bug in 4.4.85 , should get fixed in next beta/rc I think
Comment 2 dominique 2010-06-15 19:17:20 UTC 
I search on the web, and I saw that on the kubuntu.fr forum (sorry it is in french):
http://forum.kubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=373978&p=34
post #842, #843, #844 and #845.

I made that it say and that work...
Comment 3 Kevin Kofler 2010-06-15 22:01:07 UTC 
Basically, the workaround given there is to remove all the activities except for one (through the desktop's "cashew", or "peanut" ("cacahuète") as they call it there ;-) , menu). It's not a real fix though, the real fix will be in the next (pre)release from upstream.
Comment 4 dominique 2010-06-16 06:38:12 UTC 
thank for your explanations...
I wait for the next (pre)release, and If that work I close this bug.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 14 development cycle.
Changing version to '14'.

I install the Fedora14-Alpha-rc3 (x86_64) and update kde to 4.5.0.
I choose a background, install one plasmoid (yawp), and after reboot all work fine.
I think that bug is fixed...
