kde desktop themes not showing


Gday, Using opensuse, 12.1.
I've gone to system settings, (configure desktop)
workspace appearance, desktop themes and i've downloaded four more themes. One has shown up in my theme selection, but the other three are not there in the selection. They're installed, if i select download new theme and then installed themes, it shows me the four themes i've downloaded, but i can't see three of them when choosing a theme. Does anyone know how what's wrong.

For those who may suffer the same issue; i haven't found a solution, but have a work around. It can be worked around by downloading the theme from kdelooks, extracting the theme and copying the extracted file to ~/.kde4/share/apps/desktoptheme

Hope i help someone :-)
