kde folder problem

[Mani A]

I had a problem with the settings in Kubuntu-8.10  (fresh install)
(the screen became blank after I applied some desktop effects from
system settings).

So I deleted .kde (that helped in 8.04 kde4).

But kde4 cannot startup and neither can I use the terminal in xfce
other desktops. The error seems to be a permission problem.
But even after changing permissions for the new .kde directory, the
problem persists.

I tried reinstalling many base components too.

How should I proceed?


Thanks

A. Mani
