Version: (using KDE 4.2.98) Installed from: SuSE RPMs I was running marble desktop when it filed my home dir with messages in .xsession-errors (I already filled that bug...) sometime later plasma crashed and wiped my configuration (I had an extra panel that disappeared) widgets reverted to the default layout, etc
this is a problem in kconfig, not plasma.
Bug 160980 is related but that should be fixed long time ago. May be it is a new case.
Fixed recently: bug 206596. Thanks *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 206596 ***
