I'm re-sending this request for advice.
essentially kpowersave doesn't fully come up the first time on
starting the desktop unless I end the session and restart the session,
then it appears with all its configuration options.
I'm sure it's an easy tweak somewhere but where?

greets!
Slavek's updates got my kpowersave utility running again (I include the
relevant post below) but I've a new issue.
if I boot into the desktop, the kpowersave utility (on the kicker bar) offers
little more than 'help' and 'quit'.
to get the full configuration options I have to close and re-open the kde
session.
so how to get the full kpowersave without having to close and re-open the
session?

thank you. I have attached it.

Put packages in a folder and use (as root): dpkg -i *.deb
Then it should be enough to logout / login.
that seems to have done the trick!
many many thanks!
