    When I click finish I get this message:
    Failed to disable iBus autostart! (0002)
    Failed to enable Kopete autostart! (0002)
    Failed to enable Linphone autostart! (0002)

    I don't really use any of these items during my startup.
    I am just using Conky.

      Aha! you have either upgrdaed from an eaarlier version of Kwheezy, or you have deleted the file needed inside ~/.config/autostart/. In case you don't know ~ represents your home folder. You can do one of 2 things:

      (i) use "Kwheezy Profiler" to restore (update in your case) the version 1.4 profile settings. This may overide some of your customisations though. You could save your current profile and give it a try, if you loose too much, restore back your saved profile. You need to logout/login to take effect.

      (ii) use "System Settings->Satrtup and shutdown->Autostart->Add program" to add iBus, Kopete and LinPhone to the autostart.

      I recommend option (i), however you can just ignore the error if you don't need iBus,Kopete or Linphone to autostart.

    Well I tried to use the Profiler but when I did I ended up with a new wallpaper background and no task bar to click on anything.
    What I ended up doing was delete the .kde folder and let it rebuild it. Of course I had to reset all my settings. No big deal. Not sure what went wrong but I'm not going to do that again. Thanks

      That's strange, I've used restore kwheezy defaults from Kwheezty Profiler quite a few times on different hardware without any problem. It does take a long time on first login after restoring the profile.
