How to reset widget style in KDE4?

I either need to know what program to launch the system settings program, or what file to delete to set the widget style back to Oxygen.  I have it set as GTK+ and it is segfaulting so I can't get to my desktop.  Anyone know?  Changing it in qtconfig doesn't help.

Just changing widgetStyle will not help in your case. The QGtkStyle is broken at the moment and it reports that qt-gtk engine is installed even if it's not. So all your apps are now segfaulting. You can't change it back, not with qtconfig not trough some config file. However this should help you reset your widget style, let me know how it went:
$ cd && export GTK2_RC_FILES="`pwd`/.gtkrc-2.0" && systemsettings

  • How to reset Calculator Widget

    Hi There,
    My calculator is duplicating the numbers whenever I click,
    For example, I'll click 4, and it will come up as 44. 6, 66, etc
    I have done everything possible:
    1. Deleted Plist files from Library
    2. Re-installed the widget
    3. Used a backup from time machine
    Nothing works, and there is no calculator widget like apple's on their dashboard site, and no option to download the original either.
    Can anyone help? Will be much appreciated.

  • Activity monitor...how to reset?

    My DSL provider has now limited me to 150 GB of downloaded data.  I need to know how to reset the Activity Monitor to monitor my network download usage.

    Hola Dalgor777,

    I see that it has been deprecated by the company: iSlayer. You can download from here.

  • [SOLVED] Oxygen widget style missing/broken after KDE 4.8.0 to 4.8.1

    hi all,
    (I'm was not sure where to place this thread so please forgive me if I should have placed in somewhere else :-))
    Today I upgraded my KDE to 4.8.1 and now I'm missing the Oxygen widget style. I tried reinstalling kdebase and kde-workspace and I even uninstalled all of kde, followed by installing kde-meta (previously I had the "kde" package installed).
    Since there is no "oxygen" package (or at least I couldn't find it) I'm really stuck here. I also couldn't find anything related in the forums, like issues from previous upgrades.
    I made two screenshots. At [1] you see that only unthemed widget styles are available. At [2] you see that also GTK apps like firefox have lost their theming although oxygen-gtk is installed.
    I'd appreciate any help!
    cheers

    Sorry, I shouldn't have posted that firefox screenshot. What I meant was that GTK applications are not themed as well. However, the main issue here is that there seems to be no theming at all, e.g., oxygen is not available for Qt applications (only built-in styles selectable, as shown in the first screenshot).
    the_easterbunny wrote:I had the same problem. It seems that KDE ignores the "old" oxygen.so file. Moving /usr/lib/kde4/plugins/styles/oxygen.so to /usr/lib/kde4/plugins/styles/oxygen2.so solved it for me - however, it is only a workaround for that strange problem.
    I have just tried to symlink the oxygen.so file to oxygen2.so, but unfortunately that hasn't changed anything.
    additional info: I did a fresh install of the system on wednesday with KDE 4.8.0. I didn't have any problems with oxygen or theming back then. I also tried removing ~/.kde4.
    EDIT: note that I'm in a full KDE session and QT_PLUGIN_PATH is set to $HOME/.kde4/lib/kde4/plugins/:/usr/lib/kde4/plugins/
    EDIT2: I just reported it as a bug -- https://bugs.archlinux.org/index.php?do … k_id=28838
    EDIT3: It turned out it is indeed a configuration error. To anyone having this issue: delete ~/.config/Trolltech.conf

If you don’t know how to set it, you may visit the official website: http://www.resetwindowspassword.net or contact the computer manufacture.
    The computer boots from CD/DVD or USB drive, then
    1 The program will ask for the Windows OS hard drive volume. Enter the ID number of the hard drive volume that Windows is installed.
    2 The program has detected all the user names of Windows and asks which user name password is to be removed. Enter the ID number for the User Name.
    3 The program asks to confirm weather to remove the password or not. Enter "y" (yes) to confirm your action and "n" (no) to deny the action and hit "Enter".
    4 The program asks whether to continue to remove passwords for other accounts. Enter "y" to continue and "n" to finish. Eject your USB from your computer first and press any key to restart the computer from Windows. Now you can log in Windows with an empty password (with no password.), just click “Enter” when you login.
    If you have any questions of the procedure and the settings, you could visit the website:http://www.resetwindowspassword.net or send email to [email protected].
    Now you could see that to reset or recover the admin login password of windows OS: XP, Vista, Windows 7 or 2000 is not so difficult and you can do it with ease.

  • How do I find out what my PW is on my Mac or at least how to reset it?

    I reset my password for internet site but i must have a different pw on my Mac, it will not let me do updates without it*  The PW hint in the sign in screen is not working.  How do I find out what my PW is on my Mac or at least how to reset it?
    thanks,

    Sounds like you want your administrative password on the Mac so can install? For starters, you'll want to ask in a Mac forum. I know you used to be able to reset it using the install disk but haven't tried that for years.
