Description Phaello Ntsonyane 2008-01-13 01:40:42 UTC

Version:           KDE 4.00 (using KDE KDE 4.0.0)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
Compiler:          Ubuntu 7.10 
OS:                Linux

I was changing the screen resolution from a high one to a low one, the desktop froze, I switched the reset button and the restarted the computer, when I login again the taskbar could not be seen, I have tried several times to run the configurations of the task bar - using right click which gives me an option to run command.  Of course I can even start the applications in this manner, but i cannot manage to bring back the taskbar. The windows when maximized cover the whole area including where the taskbar was supposed to be.

Hi Phaello and Ivan,
