I tried running grip. It gnome-ified my desktop. Background colors for alternate desktops are gone; there are now icons on the desktop even though I disabled icons in Control Center. Does anyone know how I can restore my kde settings? -- Jeffrey Barish ___________________________________________________ . Account management: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde.
