Hello everyone. The Cashew is killing me. I know some people don't mind it, but I just can't stand it.

Now, I have searched extensively for ways to remove this abominable thing, but none of the methods I have found work.

I have tried using widgets designed for KDE 4.x to no avail.
I am running a variant of Ubuntu running LTS 14.04, so no Plasma 5.3 with the new disable feature for me.

I have tried the steps outlined in "killing the cashew" done right, but the instructions are not working. The instructions tell me to download a file and then run the command "plasmapkg2 -t package -i emptytoolbox.plasmoid", but the I get an error stating that plasmapkg2 command is not found. plasmapkg is found, however running the command produces an error: "Could not find a suitable installer for package of type package"

Please help! I am allergic to nuts!

Those instructions are for Plasma5.

In KDE4 the only way is to install some plasmoid to hide the cashew. See here e.g.: http://blog.hanschen.org/2008/10/23/pla ... he-cashew/
