KDE 4.1 - customisation and installing widgets not working properly

Hey, so I decided to try KDE 4.1. So far looks good altough I have some graphic glitches due to the nvidia drivers (but those should be fixed soon, I hope).
Still I can't help but to feel a tad disapointed at the lack of customisation of the panels.
I mean, sure there are widgets but can't he put some applications on the panels (eg. Konsole) so we don't have to use the KMenu everytime? I might be doing something wrong here so if anyone knows how please let me know.
I was also disapointed at finding that the taskbar is only one row, it makes things messy for me, but then I found out there's a widget that allows more than one row. Thing is, when I tried to install throu the 'install new widgets'->'download from internet' it appeared as installed but then doesn't show up in the widgets menu. Is this a bug?
Thanks in advance.
edit: Is there also a way to add a side panel instead of bottom/top only?

You can right-click on an application in the application-menu and then choose to add it to the panel.

  • Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install.

    Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install. Once I wrote my password, and for now on, everytime I start the session, another window advise me that "Java SE 6" is missing, due that, the computer can't run some "CS5Service Manager". If I try to install it, the download ends with an error. If finally, you skip the istallation, you arrive to the dock, but the menu bar at the top of the screen doesn't show up.
    In addition, my trackpad doesn't works either. I can move the arrow but i can't click anywhere, probably because the option of clicking by touching is disabeled and I can't performance a regular click.
    I'll be very glad if someone know what the heck is happening with my computer. Anyway, I'm going to the genius bar next Saturday. Thx!

    We're sorry.

  • I had photoshop elements 8 installed on my previous computer and it did not work properly when it came to sizing  photos for a website I was adding to.  I now have a new computer which runs windows 7.  Is it worth installing it again on my new computer?

  • I have safari 5.1.7 and it's not working properly. Should I use Safari 5.1.9 or 6.0.4?

    I have safari 5.1.7 and it's not working properly. Should I use Safari 5.1.9 or 6.0.4? Mac OS X 10.6.8.  17" MacBook Pro

    Use your Software Update under the Apple menu, it SHOULD bring Safari up to 5.1.9 on OS X 10.6.8.
    Apple IS issuing security and other updates for Snow Leopard users.
    OS X 10.4/10.5 need to upgrade, 10.6.8 ok still
    Safari 6+ is only for 10.7+ users as OS X is morphing into iOS.
    10.7 and 10.8 will not run your PPC based apps of 10.5/10.6
    If Software Update is not working, then you have other issues, backup your users folders off the machine to a external storage drive (not TimeMachine!) and run through this list of fixes.

  • HT4061 actually i bought iphone 4s in nov 2012 and now its not working properly as the screen goes black ....i lost  the bill..is it possible to get another copy of the bill......

    actually i bought iphone 4s in nov 2012 and now its not working properly and i lost my bill as well i want to request to get a copy of bill pls.....

    You are not addressing Apple here. This is a user to user technical support forum. If you are having warranty issues with the phone, a copy of the bill is not necessary for Apple to check and evaluate the phone. If there is a manufacturer defect, they will deal with it.
    What is "not working properly" on the phone. Maybe someone can help and it not be necessasry to be replaced.

  • CC 2014.2 Illustrator and Photoshop will not work properly on 10.7.5

    I have recently download Illustrator and Photoshop CC 2014.2 on my MacBook Pro version 10.7.5.
    I notice some of the functions where not working properly. For example Bounding box in Illustrator will not appear for rectangle tool. Color strip on the color box will appear as sold color instead of strips of different colors for me to choose.
    I called the Adobe to find out why is this happening and they told me it was because I don't have the latest OS on my MAC. Do to company policy I can't upgrade my OS to the latest version. Adobe send me the link that is not working for two times and need the correct link ASAP.
    Can you guys please send me the right link for me to downgrade?
    Thank you

    Piruki have you tried utilizing the Previous version option within the Creative Cloud Desktop application?  You can find additional details under the install Previous version section of CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html.

  • Windows 7 Brightness and Function key not Working Properly

    i have HP 15-af024AU APU Quad Core A8-7410 - (4 GB DDR3,1 TB HDD) Noteboook and it  came with windows 8.1 preinstalled than i installed windows 7 ultimate.
    i have problem in Display Brightness i am not able to change Brightness by function key or by manually from windows settings.
    2. my Function key are not working properly . all key are fliped whiout holding function key it work as function key. 3. bluetooth is not working when i search for new device not able to find any available discouable bluetooth device. 4. wireless button software is not wokring in windows 7 i already updated my bios that available in drivers support and install alll drivers too properly so please give proper drivers for windows 7 for this product that works perfect.

    Sorry that driver didn't work. You can try this graphics driver and if that doesn't work, unfortunately, I won't be able to help you with that issue. This package provides the AMD High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver and Catalyst Control Center for supported notebook models that are running a supported operating system. For notebooks with switchable graphics modes, this package includes drivers for both graphics processing units (GPUs). Switchable graphics enable users to switch between a power-saving graphics mode (normally used under battery power) and a high-performance graphics mode. If high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) video output is supported, this package also installs the HDMI Audio Driver. File name: sp71253.exe As far as the Fn keys being 'flipped,' I have no idea what you mean by that, or what to do about it. Did you install the software that controls the funtion keys? This package contains the HP System Event Utility, which enables special function keys on supported notebook models to be programmed. For example, HP System Event Utility enables users to press the Fn+ESC keys to view system information. This software works with the supported operating systems. File name: sp71156.exe

  • Plug and play speakers not working properly after upgrading to Windows 8.1

    After upgrading to Windows 8.1, my plug and play speakers do not work properly.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled them, and restarted.  When I try to play music, nothing comes out.  If I turn them off and back on, music will play for approximately 30 seconds, only from one speaker, then it turns off and fades to no sound.  They worked fine until I upgraded to Windows 8.1.  The manufacturer has not been able to successfully assist me.  Has anyone else reported a similar issue after upgrading OS software?  Any suggestions?  These are fairly new speakers, less than 2 years old, and not used very much.  I do have them installed via a K-V switch, and all other devices linked to the K-V switch are functioning properly (monitor and wireless keyboard).  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • Just upgraded to iOS5 on iPad. Music app and mail does not work properly.

    Just upgraded iPad2 to iOS5. Music app does not work properly. When I select a song to play, it plays a different song. Sometimes, it just stops playing songs, other times, it shuffles songs.
    Not sure whats going on.
    Worked fine using iOS4.3.5.
    Synced the iPad to iCloud. enabled mail. It shows under settings that the iCloud mail is setup, but the mail does not appear in the mail app. Not sure whats happening with these functions on iOS5.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

  • People and Business Widget not working

    I cannot get these to work; I get the following messages:
    People: "Data Unavailable" and
    Business: "No Results Found"
    Please advise...
    Imac,
    Intel Core 2 Duo
    2006 Intel 10.6.8

    These are Apple widgets that came bundled with dashboard. I used mine often now it's not working.
    If Apple just disabled it  with out so much as a heads up, that's not OK and not a way to treat loyal customers.

  • People and Business Widgets Not Working

    Hi,
    My people and business widgets have stopped working. Instead of having fields to enter name, zip, etc., there are blue boxes (that look like legos) with questions marks.
    I have read elsewhere that this means a needed plugin is missing.
    Removing and replacing the widgets doesn't help.
    Creating a new user account doesn't help.
    Deleting symbolichotkeys, dock, dashboard, dashboard.client, and widgets plists doesn't help.
    I downloaded the 10.4.4 update and used Pacifist to extract just the people widget and placed it in both the system and user library/widgets folders. Didn't work.
    I called apple care and they told me to make a posting here. I really hope someone can point me in the right direction!
    Thanks in advance for you time.
