Restoring Full Monty Desktop (solved)

[cgiefer]

I can't seem to find this in the forums, so if the answer to this already exists I apologize.  When I initially installed the new Full Monty (2012.06) version it started me off with the Full Monty desktop.  Although I liked it, I couldn't seem to get the widgets to move off to the sides to fit my widescreen laptop.  I couldn't figure out how to get them to move off to the side, so copied my previous .kde4 directory in so I could use what I had before as my desktop.  Today I decided to add a guest account and within a few seconds of logging into it the widgets reset themselves and automatically moved over to accommodate the screen's resolution.  I liked the fact that it now seems to do that, and decided to remove the .kde4 directory for my own account and see if it would automatically setup the Full Monty desktop again.  However, it did not.  It reverted to something else.  Everything I've read leads me to believe I need to create a new account and delete the one I currently have.  Is that pretty much the only way to do it, or is there a simple way to change the desktop over?  The desktop it is now giving me only allows for 1 desktop (instead of the 6 that default with the Full Monty desktop) and I have no idea how to change things.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

Instead of just removing the .kde4 directory from the original user, also copy the .kde4 directory from the new user, (the one that's working right) then paste it into the original user's $HOME directory. You may need to do this as root, to gain access to both user's $HOME directories, so check to see that the .kde4 copy in the original user's $HOME directory has the proper ownership before rebooting.

Thank you for your help, guys.  Copying the .kde4 directory from the new account did it.
