[Bug 262728] Re: plasma crashed with SIGSEGV in QGraphicsLinearLayout::insertItem()

[Benny]

As cato speaks about root password, it is perhaps important to note for him ubuntu does not set the root password.
You log in as yourself in eg Alt + F2 tty, then do sudo command to become root as the main users (your own password).
As .kde folder is in your home directory you need not be root though.

As a person WORKING with a KDE environment, I do not ever delete my .kde folder as I loose my configs like that. 
I believe deleting .kde/share/config/plasma-appletsrc suffices to make plasma return to the default setting. 

Note that as I spend some time configuring plasma, I do not even delete
.kde/share/config/plasma-appletsrc, instead I rename it, go to default,
then set the renamed again to the normal name, deleting entry after
entry, so as to obtain again a working plasma environment, with all the
configs I did, bar the one causing the crash.
