So a while ago I switched from KDE to XFCE because there was an often-runaway dbus process that would consume all of the cpu and require reboot. With the upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04 I decided to check out KDE again. It was pretty much unusable. There was no decoration on the windows and I couldn't change it. The menus would open up behind windows, config changes weren't taking effect.... etc. etc. Upon logging out and going back into XFCE my panel in there was clobbered and empty. So I had to rebuild it. I have reproduced this scenario.
So I really have two questions:
1. how can I "reset" my kde post-upgrade? I tried to remove ~/.kde but it didn't help.
2. why is it clobbering my xfce configuration? That seems odd. I honestly want to come back to kde, but obviously only if it works.
I hope there are some answers, and I hope it is not "install it from scratch". I've gotten used to upgrades working properly.
