Hi, Edgar. Let's look at what I've got in those files. [13:27 ~]$ ls -p .config Thunar/ epdfview/ gtk-2.0/ libreoffice/ mimeapps.list xfce4/ [13:27 ~]$ ls -p .cache fontconfig/ mozilla/ sessions/ [13:32 ~]$ So it's what we'd expect, .config is places where the Desktop and apps are keeping my "customization" data. .cache is also what it says. In your situation, neither are important to keep, both will be recreated as necessary, and it could be that garbage in .config would cause your symptoms, less likely but possible in .cache too. I'd purge both and see what happens. -- Paul Rogers [email protected] Rogers' Second Law: "Everything you do communicates." (I do not personally endorse any additions after this line.
