Hi Jussi,
One good thing here is that the system seems faster unless it is the
volume of adrenalin coursing through my arteries.  What a bloody mess.

Hi Randal,
I have been a self employed software engineer for more than 30 years
with a degree in Electronics and Physics.  I built my own video card,
RS232 keyboard, S100-bus single board computer based on the Motorola
6809 MCU (the first micro to allow position independent code with a
truly orthogonal instruction set) and an fsk modulator/demodulator so I
could save programs to cassette tape.  I wrote my first assembler in hex
and typed it in and saved the code all using the above hardware.

Ok so I was 60 years old this year and I admit I was not that bright
when I was a lot younger never mind the damage caused by flying along on
the tail end of the late 1960s revolution.

I am a newbie to Gambas that is all.  Linux is not my strongest OS, but
certainly my favourite.  As you get older you spend less time looking
into the interior of a tool and more time putting it to good use.  I
have tried more than a dozen distros and currently run 2 with regular
use of 4 others under VirtualBox. Including some M$ shite.  The distro
that is buggered up is BackBox 13 something.

I am still fuming over this bloody awful mess so sorry if I have
inadvertently dropped a shit load of baggage on you.

End of rant.

So moving forward any one got any bright ideas to track down the cause
of this.  I could have been hacked since I have been building a four NIC
firewall using a Raspberry Pi and could have had my guard down.

Some of the symptoms
--------------------

(1) System wide keyboard short cuts all fucked up.
(2) No Window decoration.
(3) Window layering, focus, bring to top - knackered.
(4) Default position on window launch not what it used to be.
(5) Thunderbird text menus not working.

Any one got any bright ideas where I should start to unravel this mess ?

Best regards,
John Leake
