Plasma Activities are empty.
« on: December 09, 2012, 11:54:34 PM »
I searched though this forum and I see there are no questions on this subject.

I downloaded and installed PCLOS Full Monty, the only thing I changed are the desktops background, and when I tried the plasma activities, such as search and launch, etc etc, I found all those existing activities with exception to Full Monty, are all empty, and some of them want confirmation to run applications but the application box is also empty, I even downloaded a few templates using the 'Get Templates' option, and they too are also empty.

I saw a screenshot somewhere online of the PCLOS plasma activity 'Search and Launch' and it's supposed to have a bar at the top with 3 icons, and a centered line of 5 icons, and a search bar between the two, but not in this case,,, it's completely empty, I have installed-reinstalled several times and still the only activity that works is 'Full Monty', the others are all empty.

How do I get those default activities to work?

ok, I found out (from another forum), I had to run fm_widgets_setup, then 'Unlock' the widgets, then I can create new activities using templates,,,, this! needs to be added in the wiki, with a note stating "plasma activities can not be created unless ALL the plasma widgets are unlocked using the 'fm_widgets_setup'" in the fullmonty menu.
