i forgot another one setting:

Use simple clic for the mouse (becomes double clic)

This looks like a bug with distribution supplied packages. Please only reopen this bug if the developers of your distribution confirmed it is a KDE problem.

I can reproduce on mageia cauldron with KDE SC 4.7.3 but also on fedora 15 (4.6.5)

I was not able to reproduce on OpenSuse 11.4 because systemsettings is crashing (probably due to a buggy polkit configuration)

Step to reproduce :
Select a widget style different as the default one (for example plastique)
Apply it
open kdm kcm.
Check again the widget style, it's now back to default (oxygen on fedora/mageia cauldron or iaora-kde in mandriva 2010.2 as pointed by dimitrios )


Regards,
