Well, I undid everything, moved the files out of /etc/portage, and did |
| 20 |
my regular updates. When I logged back in, some things were different. |
| 21 |
I don't mean broke different, just different. I sort of lost my |
| 22 |
settings on some things it seems and my saved session was a bit weird. |
| 23 |
Some apps were open and showed at the bottom but I couldn't get them |
| 24 |
where I could see them. It acted like they were hidden, you know when |
| 25 |
you click and get it to minimize. Thing is, clicking to get it to come |
| 26 |
back didn't work. It's there but not there if you get it. |
| 27 |

Also, the desktop looks funny, as in strange funny. It sorta looks neat |
| 29 |
in a way but it is different. I also had to set it back to folder view |
| 30 |
since it went to default. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
I'm not quite sure what changed but something did. I'm pretty sure it |
| 33 |
had nothing to do with me trying to get KDE5 tho. I had that so that I |
| 34 |
could just move the files out and be back where I was. Also, it never |
| 35 |
emerged anything. So, it had to be a regular update that did it but not |
| 36 |
sure which one. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
The only thing I want to change, I want to make the little icons |
| 39 |
smaller. Other than that, it looks "crisper" or "cleaner" in some way |
| 40 |
that I can't quite describe. Now to go find that setting. It's in the |
| 41 |
control thingy somewhere. I changed it once before. |
