This behaviour (no right click, no widget borders) is caused by the configured 
plasma desktop plugin not loading.  We did not port this for the initial 4.2.0 
packages, but it is now present.  Perhaps you still have the older ones 
installed?

Does ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-appletsrc contain plugin=plaindesktop?

Is
/usr/lib*/kde4/plasma_containment_plaindesktop.so
present?
