I use the gnome desktop, mainly to keep open multiple window-screens of gnome-terminal. I use switcher to keep these gnome-terminal screens on five to seven whole-screens. Lately there has developed a problem somewhere in gnome that causes the sudden disappearance of all my gnome-terminal screens when I edit the colors in the gnome-terminal profile. (When I click on 'Save', ALL the gnome-terminal windows close, all together.) It is tedious to reconstruct my work environment, so I'm looking for help.
My environment does get reconstructed when I reboot, so I know that the system saves the right information. I see some information in System->Preferences->Sessions->Session Options that indicates is done during logging out. So I think that a crash of a piece of gnome does not touch the configuration that was recorded during the last logout. When the crash happens, I think I might be able to change the System Preferences to NOT automatically remember, then logout, then login, and get back my setup. This is complicated to do. Is there a button that I could click to get the desktop rebuilt without the logout-login sequence? Where? (PS Colors matter a lot to me, because the bulk of Debian package management gui software has color choices that make the screen unreadable to me. Particularly the reverse video highlighting makes the text on the highlighted line invisible to me. ) -- Paul E Condon pecon...@mesanetworks.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
