No argument at all... it's unfortunately been a known "fix" for a
while though, and I do that on all KDE4 installs I do right now...
install 4.3.1, upgrade to 4.4.1 and toast the config file.  If I do
that, KDE4.4.1 works beautifully on all systems I have it running on.

Is it broken... yup... is it a bug... yup... and it is annoying...
