KDE 4.4.3 in Slackware 13.1 x86 doesn't save my settings!
Hello everybody,
I'm not new to slackware, but i'm new to KDE 4.
I've just installed Slackware 13.1 and found out that the new KDE desktop environment is excellent!, so i've customized it to fit my needs (Screen resolution 1024x768, wallpaper, keyboard layout and graphical effects), but when i log out or reboot and log in again, the desktop environment loads the default settings, or mine are not applied!
In example, my resolution settings are ignored and the desktop loads 800x600 again.
I've already solved other bugs in Slackware 13.1 that could be related to this, like the MySQL and akonadi errors, i've marked "Restore previous session" in System Settings, etc.
What am i missing? How can i do to for making KDE to save my settings?
Thanks in advance, and please excuse my english.

xdg-settings
XDG-SETTINGS(1) xdg-settings Manual XDG-SETTINGS(1)
NAME
xdg-settings - get various settings from the desktop environment
SYNOPSIS
xdg-settings {get | check | set} {property} [subproperty] [value]
xdg-settings {--help | --list | --manual | --version}
DESCRIPTION
xdg-settings gets various settings from the desktop environment. For instance, desktop environments often provide proxy configuration and
default web browser settings. Using xdg-settings these parameters can be extracted for use by applications that do not use the desktop
environment's libraries (which would use the settings natively).
xdg-settings is for use inside a desktop session only. It is not recommended to use xdg-settings as root.
OPTIONS
--help
Show command synopsis.
--list
List all properties xdg-settings knows about.
--manual
Show this manual page.
--version
Show the xdg-utils version information.
PROPERTIES
When using xdg-settings to get, check or set a destkop setting, properties and possibly sub-properties are used to specify the setting to
be changed.
Some properties (such as default-web-browser) fully describe the setting to be changed. Other properties (such as
default-url-scheme-handler) require more information (in this case the actual scheme to set the default handler for) which must be provided
in a sub-property.
EXIT CODES
An exit code of 0 indicates success while a non-zero exit code indicates failure. The following failure codes can be returned:
1
Error in command line syntax.
2
One of the files passed on the command line did not exist.
3
A required tool could not be found.
4
The action failed.
EXAMPLES
Get the desktop file name of the current default web browser
xdg-settings get default-web-browser
Check whether the default web browser is firefox.desktop, which can be false even if "get default-web-browser" says that is the current
value (if only some of the underlying settings actually reflect that value)
xdg-settings check default-web-browser firefox.desktop
Set the default web browser to google-chrome.desktop
xdg-settings set default-web-browser google-chrome.desktop
Set the default mailto URL scheme handler to be evolution.desktop
xdg-settings set default-url-scheme-handler mailto evolution.desktop
