    right-click on desktop .. add panel ?

    if you dont get this option, you may have to set your desktop settings as
    'desktop' or 'folder; when u right click on the desktop..

    yes.. so.. add the panel..
    you can customise this list of course, but here's whats on mine ..
    add these in order.. so right click on the panel - tpanel options / add widgets ok ? cool.

    first up, the menu button, so in the widget list add these ..
    Application launcher
    Task manager
    pager
    device notifier
    system tray
    battery monitor (well on my panel anyway!)
    digital clock
    .. is that anything like ?

    Not sure but you could try renaming your .kde folder:
    Log out of kde, press crtl+alt+f3, log in to the terminal with your usual name and password then type:
    Code:
    mv ~/.kde ~/.kde-old
    then press ctrl+alt+f7, log in to kde again and hopefully the desktop resets itself. Not sure if it'll work but if your next option is reinstalling kde then it's probably worth a go first.
