Hi Evan: This is not a fix, and may not even work on KDE (I'm using MATE)...

To drag a window without toolbars press ALT and drag the window from its middle.

I find this useful for those broken UI modal windows that can't be sized but are too big to fit on my netbook screen (1024x640) and so the "OK" and "Cancel" buttons are below the visible screen.

IMnsHO there should be no way for programming APIs to remove vital tools like scrollbars, windows close and minimize buttons, and grabbers for resize and move...

--Bob.

Hi all.

Wondering if anyone can help with this.

A power glitch happened while I was updating a KDE Neon system and on
reboot all sorts of things are wonky. KDE starts up fine on bootup but
there are no window toolbars. All apps load at the upper right of the
screen and can't be moved because there is nothing to drag and no keyboard
shortcuts will work.

An attempt to complete the upgrade using `pkcon update` (the KDE Neon
version of `apt dist-upgrade`) spits out a slew of errors (attached). The
database is not corrupt (`pkcon repair` reports no problems) but there seem
to be major pieces either refusing to install or "held back".

Is there a command that can let me just force everything to the current
stable release without me having to go through the whole
install-from-usb-stick thing? There's nothing critical on that installation
so a fresh instrall is more of a PITA than critical problem. Still, it took
me a lot of time to set up my apps

Thanks for any help. I like KDE Neon, it's a like "Kubuntu without snaps
but with the newest KDE".
