Okay, no problem, you have a full KDE install, not a series of split |
| 8 |
ebuilds. |

That is strange, starting the Control Center shouldn't ask for the |
| 14 |
root password. Only under System Administration most sections have |
| 15 |
an Administrator Mode button, needed when one wants to change |
| 16 |
anything there. Then it asks for the root password. All the rest |
| 17 |
should be changeable as your normal user. |

Do you still have your ~/.kde3.3 dir lying around? If so, you may |
| 20 |
want to tar it up somewhere safe, then delete the dir, and restart |
| 21 |
KDE, just to be sure. That probably won't help anything, so then |
| 22 |
log out of KDE, move ~/.kde3.4 to a different name for the moment, |
| 23 |
clean all KDE stuff out of /tmp, and then relogin to KDE. If that |
| 24 |
brings things back to normal, you may try diffing the old and |
| 25 |
new .kde3.4 dirs. If it doesn't help, restore your original .kde3.4 |
| 26 |
dir to get all your settings back. |
