Loosing my taskbar config under KDE 4 (Kubuntu)

Hi all,

I am experiencing a strange problem.
After an error I made with the mouse, I lost the space where the small icons of applictions running are appearing in the taskbar (i don't know the name of this). So the clock moved to the middle of my taskbar.

I add these icons again (at least on the right side of the clock).

But after rebooting, the config of the taskbar is lost: again I don't have the small icons of the applications.
So I have to use ALT+TAB to switch from an application to another one.

Anybody got an idea on why it is behaving like this ?

Thanks

I found that you can add the plasmoid again in the taskbar.
But I lose it after rebooting.

Moreover, if you remove a default icon (like the clock), and add it again, at the follwoing reboot, you don't have the clock anymore !

I don't understand ...

Ok, I discovered that "playing" with KControl > Desktop > Taskbar, you can fix the taskbar: the setup you made on your taskbar is then remaining after reboot.
I don't know why...
