[TriLUG] Telling KDE to sit down and shut the F*CK UP!

[Brian Weaver]

'init 3', yes novel and appropriate :-)

No I managed to finally get KDE to behave properly using the following
steps...
  1) log out
  2) <ctrl>-<alt>-<f1> (this gets you to a virtual console)
  3) login
  4) rm -rf ~/.kde .kderc
  5) logout
  6) <ctrl>-<alt><f7> (puts you back in X)
  7) login and reconfigure KDE just like last time using the control center.

Now everything works as desired.

P.S. Be sure to tell the family "Merry Christmas" for me Shane. Hope you
have a happy holiday season :-)
