SLED 10 64 Bit (With XGL Enabled) Problem with KDE 3.5

(1/1)

mabus:
I'm using SLED 10 64 bit, with XGL enabled on KDE.


the problem here is that , surprisingly, my KDE changed it's look.. It happened after I rebooted. I used to have this KDE desktop setup with my chosen wallpaper, now upon loading, it shows that one.. after a while, the desktop shifts . the wallpaper goes back to the default, the theme for icons changed, and when I do a right click on the desktop, it lost the set of options ( the one that has refersh). Now, when I lick on home (the desktop icon), it'll open using nautilus, not konqueror anymore. and another thing, when I right click, and choose to change wallpaper, the menu is different from the ones in KDE.


so what's wrong here?  I was able to fix this problem by deleting the old config files, and logging back in, thus thesame as creating a new setting. But I'd like to know what seems to be the cause of the problem here so I can prevent it.

Any solutions or comments are more than welcome.

Ricky:
May be an unclean shutdown was the reason for currupted config file thus loading default vaules.

mabus:
well.. that can be one, but I rarely shut my PC down, and it happened while it was still on. and besides, my default was KDE. There's a big chance though that this would have happened on that compiz.conf file that you create inside kde's autostart folder.

I was able to solve this, by simply reverting the configs to the default, simply making it run as  if it was the first run.

However, I still wanna know what caused this problem, so I can prevent it. The funny thing is, it only happens on my shell, the other accounts don't get that problem.hehehe.. weird
