[Slackware 14+-current] restore KDE5 window decoration? (screenshot report also with my X pointer theme)
by dchmelik from LinuxQuestions.org on (#54B8X)
Slackware 14+-current KDE5 on my desktop suddenly has broken/blank/nonexistent (Plastik) window decorations. I did 'slackpkg reinstall kwin,' even 'slackpkg reinstall ktown' a few/couple times each (downloading & reinstalling completed)... of course also did 'slackpkg update,' 'slackpkg upgrade-all' (no related packages) but nothing changed. I will be upgrading/overhauling/replacing this desktop next week, so this isn't that big of an issue. If anyone has an idea to debug, I would try it... but I think it's another of dozens of cases of KDE configuration gone wrong from normal usage...
Clarification: the viewinder/crosshairs in attached image is part of a basic X pointer set I made years ago (with kolourpaint & gursor maker?)... it's incomplete, but I'd share it. I got tired of Apple-/Windows-style cursor active area being top left of pointer. Mine is in the middle (and you can even see the middle pixel colour if not too new monitor ('retina.')) There isn't anything else much different with that X mouse pointer set other than the 'waiting' icons are like analog (circular) clocks (some pointers will drop back to default like some included X alternative sets do)...
