Now you remind me, I used to do that too. I don't remember when I stopped, but |
| 9 |
nowadays the standard profiles seem to do a pretty good job of separating |
| 10 |
Gnome from KDE. |

If I say "USE=-gtk emerge -upDvN world" I get 11 packages to be reinstalled, |
| 13 |
including kde-plasma/systemsettings. It may be worthwhile reinstalling that |
| 14 |
one with USE=gtk to see what happens. |

Tell me about it! It's a constant struggle for me, especially while browsing |
| 20 |
the web. It seems that site designers can't, or won't, take account of a |
| 21 |
user's need to set a large minimum font size. |
