Right now there is a lot things I like about xfce, so I won't to play
with it some more. Using xfce, and still feeling a misconfiguration
somewhere, I don't think its in the gnome settings that aren't being
used. Or are they? 

I have recently given up on gnome-terminal (and any libvte based
terminal) and am using konsole now instead, which I so far really
like. So maybe there is kde in my future somewhere. I spend a lot time
in a terminal and having something that works all the time, is a big
plus for me. 

Thanks.
