</div>Just a note - NEVER (!!) delete ~/.kde4/ as this will lose all your settings.<br>
You can instead move it away using the "mv" command:<br>

<br>
I'm just mentioning it so people won't be encouraged to do so (and you shouldn't do<br>
so in the future).<br>

</div>I didn't encounter any of these problems either on Mageia 2 x86-64 or Mageia Cauldron<br>
x86-64. If you can reproduce them somehow, you can file bug reports on <a href="http://bugs.kde.org/" target="_blank">http://bugs.kde.org/</a> .<br>
