I have the same problem. I noticed that you can't also access 
the task bar preferences from the small button immediate preferences. 
Simply nothing happens! 

But the task bar preferences can de accessed from the global kicker preferences
(using the same small button but browsing under panel->preferences) .

Comment 2 Ingmar Koecher 2002-10-09 16:10:19 EDT

The exact same problem happens to me. According to a KDE developer it's a Redhat
problem.

Comment 3 Ngo Than 2002-10-11 14:26:43 EDT

yes, it's a bug in our kdebase and kdenetwork. It's fixed in 3.0.4-1 or newer.
