I don't have much to say, but in general, being just on DE problem, making a general change doesn't seem appropriate (rerember systemd?). > > --------- > > Second, I ran into a minor problem with konsole.

That is right. But raising the question made me thing I should already change Gnome Terminal. This box is rather new and I already have Qterminal, LXTerminal and Terminal (Gnome). > How should we go on these issues? -- []s, Fernando, aka SÃsifo -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
