Fedora 10 KDE4.1 settings not saved on logout

All,

I recently installed a fresh copy of Fedora 10 along with KDE 4.1. I set up my panel the way I liked, including adding new widgets and moving around icons from one place to another on the panel. When I log out and log back in, I see that some of my changes are saved while others are not. All of my selected widgets re-appear, however they're all located in different spots. For example, I placed the digital clock on the far right side of the panel, the K menu on the far left, and pager in the middle. Now when I log back in the K menu is on the right, the clock is about a third of the way from the left, and the pager is about a quarter of the way from the right. I've seen this happen when restoring a previous session, as well as starting with a new session. I've also tried locking/unlocking widgets, still with the same result after logout/login.

I saw on KDE's site that 4.2 fixes a number of problems (one of which included saving panel settings). Am I doing something wrong by moving my icons around on the panel and logging out? Should I be "saving" their position manually somehow? This seems like too big of a problem to have been overlooked prior to F10's release so I'm assuming there's something trivial that I'm missing.

Any help would be appreciated. I'm a BIG fan of KDE, but I don't think I can live with my panel randomly re-positioning icons every time I log in!

Thanks,
Dan
