Now you remind me, I used to do that too. I don't remember when I stopped, but nowadays the standard profiles seem to do a pretty good job of separating Gnome from KDE. If I say "USE=-gtk emerge -upDvN world" I get 11 packages to be reinstalled, including kde-plasma/systemsettings. It may be worthwhile reinstalling that one with USE=gtk to see what happens. > In the last few years higher and higher screen resolutions make font size > too small to read, especially as the users are getting older too! ;-) Tell me about it! It's a constant struggle for me, especially while browsing the web. It seems that site designers can't, or won't, take account of a user's need to set a large minimum font size. > Thanks for the pointer. I hope it turns out well. -- Regards, Peter.
