Last night we had one of our twice- or
three-times-weekly electrical
blackouts and, while the gadgets are all on uninterruptible power supplies I
shut them down before the juice was gone from the backups. When this morning
I rebooted the GPD Pocket, it went to the TDM login screen, where the spaces
for entering username and password were small but the fonts for typing them
in were huge. Nevertheless, I was able to log in and, instead of the pristine
TDE desktop I'd enjoyed at shutdown, I had one where Kicker and so on were
the size I had set, but again the fonts -- in the calendar, in names below
icons, and in menus, were enormous.
My sense is that something upstream of TDM is doing
this. The Ubuntu install
defaults to Unity and lightdm. When I installed the two big TDE packages I
set TDM as the default. But of course I'd had to run Unity in order to
install TDE.
My first thought is to purge Unity and lightdm, but it
might be that this
won't solve the problem, and that someone here who is familiar with the
macinations of X and such might have a sense of where there's a configuration
file that is causing this to happen.
Anybody know?
