Hey guys I upgraded to KDE 4.2 and everything went smoothly and was
working fine. Starting last night, I am no longer able to add Widgets
to the desktop. The system will lock up. I am still able to add
widgets to a panel, but not the desktop. I still have a few widgets
left on my desktop that were added before this problem started and they
work fine. However if I remove them, I am not able to add them again.
The system will freeze, the only way to resolve this is to logout and
then login again. Does anybody know what could be causing this? Is
this a known bug? Any ideas on how to resolve it?

In the file stated bot there was a missing . in the path.
should be .kde4 which is a hidden folder in /home. You will need
activate view hidden files in the view menu

Core 2 Duo 3.16GHz, 4GB DDR2, 2.5TB, GeForce 7600 GS, OS 11.1
x86_64, KDE4.2 (83.1) ‘Smolt specs’ (http://tinyurl.com/9hgxhl)
I removed the extra plasma add-on pack (KDE-Plasma-Addons) from Yast
and then logged off, logged back in. Was then able to add Widgets to my
desktop again without it locking up.
So I have a few less choices now, but at least it is working. rotfl!
