Well, I don't know for sure, but if I login to KDE Safe Mode and take a
screenshot of the "Activities" settings at the bottom of the screen,
this is what I see:

If I take a similar screenshot while logging into a regular KDE
session, this is what it looks like:

Activities may have something to do with my problem. But, I tried them
a long time ago and decided that I wouldn't ever mess with them again
(they just weren't worth what I considered to be all the hassle.)
Translation: for quite a while KDE just respected all of my desktop
settings. Then, without making any changes, my plasmoids and other
desktop settings just started to disappear when I logged out and then
back in. Also, I used to be able to reboot and log back into a KDE
session that looked like it is suppsed to:
http://afolkey2.us/gallery3/index.php/Assorted/KDE4_11_00-Desktop-Screens...
But today when I rebooted and logged back in, I got this:
http://afolkey2.us/gallery3/index.php/Assorted/KDE4_11_00-Desktop-Screens...
Now, the only way to get my desktop looking like it is supposed to is
to login to the KDE Safe Mode...
