Lost all modules from Kcontrol/Kinfo center for Root User

[ichoeff]

I have Knoppix 3.2 installed on HD for some time now and suddenly I no longer have access to the setup modules from Kcontrol nor kinfo will display any for Root user. I can still access each module individually from setup popup menu. I am a newbie, I don't know how to get the setup modules displayed back on these applications. My Knoppix user can display them normally. I don't see anything comparing the menu editor properties for these apps. Please help me regain the Kcontrol module display again.
Thanks in advance
