Large K Menu

HI!

I asked this question on LQ.org and i still have the problem. Probably this is the right forum for solving my problem.

Just some weeks ago I switched to SuSE 9.1. For that matter, everything is fine and it looks cool, except this:

My K Menu uses very big icons instead of regular small icons; that are shown next to any entry on K Menu. So, my K Menu looks very large and covers most of the area of my Desktop when opened. This happens when I logon as a normal user. It doesn't happen when I logon as root. Probably these links will help you see my problem:

home.iitk.ac.in/student/anupamsr/snapshot1.jpg - this is how it is
home.iitk.ac.in/student/anupamsr/snapshot2.jpg - this is when I am root (this is what I want it to be)

How to correct this problem. Please help! :( :( :( :(

You can configure you icon sizes in control panel => appearance and themes => icons => advanced tab.
-- rm -fr /etc/whitehouse
-- Gentoo | udev | Xorg 6.8.2 | 2.6.14-r4 | KDE 3.5.0

No! It doesn't control the size of icons In K Menu.

Infact, my settings for icons are same for both normal and root logins. I checked that.

Probably the icon size for K Menu is written in some configration file. I tried find it in /.kde/share/config/kdeglobalsv , but couldn't make out. Dont know actually in which file it is writen :(
