Version: (using KDE 3.5.9) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages OS: Linux Bug description: First of all: I cannot tell which application is involved, sorry ! When you want to save your settings of kde (I mean your "personal settings", the one, you save with the button "save settings" in the K-Menu), and you restart kde again, your settings are lost. Worse, you loose all your virtual desktops, there is only one left. All windows lost their frames (looks similar to the windows, when you start compiz) and it is no more possible to move windows ! Deleting ~/.kde or ./kde4 does NOT help ! So be warned: Get your old ~/.kde and ~/.kde4 as backup, otherwise you crash your whole kde !!! I could not find out, which part and files of KDE are responsible for this mess. It is the same, when you try this as the user "root". You will crash kde of user "root", too ! Again, if you want to find out what happens, be very, very careful and get your old kde-settings as backup. At the moment I can confirm this behaviour only on an amd64-system, as for normal users, for "root" and as well as for newly added users.
Hi all, I think, my report is a double to Bug Nr. #491879. So, if you think the same, you can delete my report or add my comments. Thank you. Hans
Hello Hans, I fear bug #491879 does not exist yet in the KDE database. Which one did you mean?
I guess you are talking about debian's bug #491879 (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=491879) because this bug tracking system only has ~168500 bugs. After reading debian's bug, I understood your problem. Please try to be more specific in the future. First try to identify the problem, then report a bug, because nobody would understand this, imho. Anyway, thank you for the report, but this seems to be a debian-specific issue. I am closing this bug now.

This is the link to it: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=491879 I am sorry, if I was wrong. But maybe, this discussion will help you either. Best regards Hans
