Hi,I really love kubuntu but I need a little help. I installed kde 4.2 and after I did my menu bar at the top of my open windows disappeared. I also messed up my task bar can anyone tell me how to fix these 2 problems? I could uninstall kde desktop and reinstall it to fix the taskbar problem If some one can tell me the exact name of the packages to uninstall. Thanks inadvance.

Per chance are you using a NVidia graphics chipset?

I ended up using the Prop Nvidia driver 180.25 & had to add this to the end of my xorg.conf file...

Section "serverFlags"
Option "IgnoreABI"
EndSection
