Does it happen with all themes? It may be possible that some themes do not show because the downloaded packages are not in the expected format.

Themes should be downloaded to .kde/share/apps/kdm/themes.

Please check permissions and the contents of this directory before and after downloading.

this happen all themes. the themes show in the list of installed themes on
the git hot new stuff page bit dont show under the them tab list where the
