I renamed .kde4, killed X and then logged in, Then I renamed it back to .kde4, overwriting the new settings, however, everything is working now and I haven't lost any settings :-)

$ plasmoidviewer --list
And then try launching one of them, e.g.:
$ plasmoidviewer clock
As it says it the title I can't add kde plasma widgets to either the panel or desktop (yes I have unlocked the widgets) I'm running an up-to-date Arch install with KDE 4.9.2 and systemd for init.
I wonder if anyone else is having the same problem? Apart from this it runs fine. At first I thought it was just one widget (homerun from AUR) but now I see that no widgets work.
Maybe systemd or pam is the culprit? I had to tweak some settings (not that I have any understanding of it) to get autologin for lightdm and the networkmanager plasmoid/widget working...
many thanks,
