A couple of days ago I used dnf to do a mass update (as in "dnf update<RETURN>") I am running the KDE desktop/Plasma work-space on a system which boots in multi-user (non graphical) mode and has i&The updates appeared to go smoothly and there were no error messages. However, the update added a newer kernel (I went from kernel-4.9.12-200.fc25.x86_64 to kernel-4.9.13-200.fc25.x86_64) so I did a reboot. (This is my normal approach and one I've done hundreds of times over at least a decade.) However, when the system came back up, everything looked OK until I started to run LibreOffice (writer, calc - it's tax time...) essentially the background for everything except the document/spreadsheet I'm working on has gone from something off-white to what I would get if I went into systemsettings5 and selected "Breeze Dark" as my overall work-space theme (which I haven't actually ever tried). Now in case you find it useful, the system has an Intel i7-5930K CPU (6 phys cores), 32 GB ram, just under 20TB disk space, 152GB swap (actually needed), and is currently running the 4.9.13-200.x86_64 kernel, Samsung 22" monitor 1920x1200 (new monitor not here yet... sigh). Since I hadn't reconfigured anything, I assumed that some configuration param was changed in the update, so I ran systemsettings5 to see what I needed to change. But I found nothing that helped the problem. Along the say I discovered that the same thing hits a few other apps as well, Now I have another (slightly older, slightly smaller) box which previously had the same config params as this one, so I brought up the KDE settings until on both boxes and did a sight-verify to compare the two. So far as I can tell they are identical. I did several hours of RTFM, online searches, more doc reading, more than a little experimentation, and still have not found a solution. If ANYBODY can shed some light on how to fix this I would really appreciate it. (It bugs me the most in LibreOffice since the background makes some of the icons almost invisible. -- william w. austin airedad@xxxxxxx "life is just another phase i'm going through. this time, anyway ..." _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
