I'll make a leap of faith here, and assume this is KDE you're referring to, and not anything else. Your faith serves you well, it is indeed KDE! :-) Sorry for the omission.
selection etc had all gone apart from the left-hand Icons for the menu, Konsole etc!
Sounds like you mangled ~/.kde -- if you have a backup of this before you started, I would restore to it, else I would drop in your own version entirely. I have a folder .kde but I can't find any items in it that refer to the desktop etc. unless it's under an unexpected name. I've mainly been checking .kde/share/config since the other folders don't yield much that looks useful. /Desktop-%1 and /Desktop-0 (in /tmp) are of little help either, although Ksycoca looks interesting and mentions desktop bits, I'd not want to edit it manually!
The desktop configuration tool appeared to hold all of the correct setting when I checked. Could I copy .kde from another user (to root), or would that be dangerous?
