Ummm... yes. "calm mode" wasn't available yesterday, 'scuse the fit.

Something must have really stirred up the kernel yesterday, had a full system
lock. MagicKey was working tho, so I ran the usual sequence S-U-B for sync,
unmount drives, reboot. This saved me a lot of times on other occasions.

After I rebooted the machine and logged in KDE turned out to have forsaken a
lot of settings, such as theme, font settings, color settings, taskbar
appearance, and - maybe more annoying - keyboard shortcuts all were back to
defaults. Note, these are only the "back to default" changes that struck me
right at startup, I have no idea what else KDE might have forgot I laboriously
taught it like file type handling or whatever.

The file system underneath is XFS btw.
