[opensuse-factory] Problem removing item from panel
Hi all; I'm having a problem removing a widget from the panel. The widget I'm trying to remove is the weather service from the available panel widgets. After dragging it to the panel it does not show up there but is now missing from the available widgets. It did get installed as it asked me for configuration info which it apparently accepted. Today, shortly after the user screen was displayed, the error message "Weather information retrieval information for Seattle/Boeing Fld, WA timed out" (view screenshot @ http://pastebin.com/Yk5GkVdj (KDE-panel-error1). As the screenshot shows, there is no weather icon. So is there any way of removing this non-displaying icon from the panel without deleting the panel and building a new one? This is while running in openSuSE 11.3 with KDE 4.4.4 (rel3).

11.3 is off-topic here. This is the list for development, you should use opensuse@opensuse.org for support. When all else fails you can manually edit ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-desktop- appletsrc But, you have to do it while the plasma desktop is not running. And you should prolly back up the file before editing, it's not very friendly to manual editing, so it's easy to mess it up. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Thanks for the reply, Martin; Guess I clicked on the wrong address in my address list when composing.
