Hello h2sammo,

Given your brief description (and I am assuming that you are using plasma-netbook interface which comes with kubuntu netbook remix, by default), it might be that your desktop(s)/Search and Launch interface(s) are locked. There should be a "cashew" on the bottom left or right of the screen. Click on it and there "unlock" your desktops. This should allow the "add page" and "delete page" options on the cashew menu/panel.

If this doesn't work, you can manually edit plasma-netbookrc file (it is located in /yourusername/home/.kde/share/config/) with Kate (KDE text editor) and delete the entries by hand. Or, if you can't decide which entries to deleye, then you can create a backup of that file and delete it completely. Don't worry, this won't harm your doucments, or other resources etc. By doing so, KDE Netbook interface will create the netbook desktop configuration file with default settings, at your next login.

Regards
