I'm just wondering if something left over from the updates is causing this.
Try renaming these two files
~/.kde4/share/config/plasmarc
~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-appletsrc
and re-start KDE. You will lose any configuration you've done, but it will
be a clean start, and hopefully will then hold the settings you make.
The best way to do this is kill plasma first, from Konsole
kquitapp plasma &
then move/rename the plasma*rc files Anne mentioned, then restart plasma,
plasma &
This will then start with *new/default* plasma*rc files, just moving them and
logging out will just recreate the old ones again on login. There is no need
to log out with the above procedure.
