Just a note - NEVER (!!) delete ~/.kde4/ as this will lose all your settings.
You can instead move it away using the "mv" command:
<A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mv">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mv</A>
I'm just mentioning it so people won't be encouraged to do so (and you shouldn't do
so in the future).

</I>><i> -- general slow down in speed

</I>><i> -- re-start option (Start button ...) would also stop
</I>><i> responding
</I>><i>
</I>
I didn't encounter any of these problems either on Mageia 2 x86-64 or Mageia Cauldron
x86-64. If you can reproduce them somehow, you can file bug reports on <A HREF="http://bugs.kde.org/">http://bugs.kde.org/</A> .

Shlomi Fish

</I>><i>
</I>><i> I've deleted the .kde4 file and they all run fine now.
