Debian Bullseye (Testing) Is Driving Me CRAZY!!!!!


Yeah, it's the testing distro. I guess I am a glutton for punishment.

Recently, all of my Plasma Windows have HUGE icons. It is ruining my "Debian Experience". And it is *just* Plasma windows, and everything looks normally with non-plasma windows, and on non-kde desktop environments {specifically XFCE4, LDXE, Fluxbox, and Icewm}

Soooo.....:
How can I make/force/whatever my Plasma windows behave once again?

Yeah... I know that this is a complex-ish question. I have spent several minutes with the KDE/Plasma configuration to no avail. I could just delete the whole .KDE directory tree (or rename it) but that may be overkill.

Does anyone from the Debian Bullseye/testing install give me a clue?????

Thank you for your time, and have a great day!

I have Bullseye with Plasma and it behaves quite nicely. Try this: In Plasma, go to System Settings-->Appearance-->Icons-->Configure Icon Sizes.

Let us know what happens.

Thanks...

Did that, most of my icons were small BUT, for example, on Dolphin my icons at the bottom of Dolphin window, the "filter" input and the "lock" and the "cancel" icons were still too {darn} big.

I guess I need to take some drastic steps and delete/rename the whole ".kde" sub-directory and see what happens...

{sigh}

I will tolerate this for a few days and see if someone else can suggest somethings else.....

Thank you for your advice.

OK.... I figured it out.

The culprit was/is an "add-on" icon theme thingy called "Plasma Kde icon theme in Oxygen customized style".
I have deleted it and rated it badly.
