hello,
I am working on a kicker applet now and have published a preliminary 
version (http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=18057), but there 
is one issue I wasn't able to solve despite spending quite a lot of time 
on it. I use a rather standard way of storing and loading configuration 
data (described in several tutorials found on the web) - in my applet 
class's constructor I call a function which contains several calls to 
config()->readEntry() to load the settings and in the destructor I call 
a function which uses calls to config()->writeEntry() in order to save 
settings.
The problem is that this only seems to work when I make the applet a 
unique one. When I make it not unique, configuration seems to be saved 
correctly (config files look OK), but loading it fails miserably. What 
is even stranger, the object returned by config() in the constructor 
(i.e. the one used for loading configuration) returns false when 
hasGroup is called for groups which are obviously present in the config 
files. Also, config()->groupList().count() returns 24 which is certainly 
false as my config files have exactly 3 groups. I prefer my applet to be 
non-unique so I would appreciate any tips regarding restoring 
configuration in that mode. Thanks in advance,
Michal
