    Ha,

    So I did what I thought I needed to do to upgrade KDE, but looking at help in Dolphin shows I'm still using KDE version 4.8.5.

    What I did was:

    Code:
    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get upgrade
    sudo reboot
    What have I missed?

      do
      Code:
      sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
      the dist-upgread will move your KDE ver up

        After a bit of googling, I did this:

        Code:
        sudo apt-get install kde-standard
        ...and now the problem is fixed! Kudos

        vinnywright, thanks for your reply! I think that's probably what I should have done, and install kde-standard installed a new version of something slightly different to what usually comes with Kubuntu... but it's working, so whatever!

        Thanks again, all of you.

          Well that will have pulled in a few additional KDE bits that aren't part of a normal Kubuntu installation, but no harm done.

          Please run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade too, to ensure that all packages on your computer (not just the ones included in kde-standard) are upgraded to their latest versions. This is good basic system maintenance.
