Okay. The white screen was the backdrop. I put all the windows into their own desk, turned off
the backdrop, made a new stack which also opened in a separate window which I had to move to
the LC desk.
Even with the adjustable parts of the UI, the text is so tiny it's almost unreadable. Looks
about 6-8 points.
I opened the old app browser and didn't see my stack. Opened prefs and the app browser jumped
underneath it to a position above the top of the screen so I couldn't grab it and pull it back
down. Closed prefs, opened the message box, typed "set the top of the mousestack to the
mousev", positioned the mouse, hit return.
Nothing happened for a moment, then the fan went on, the mouse froze, the keyboard froze, the
fan went wild, the screen went black, the power key didn't work until finally the machine shut
itself off.
So much for that experiment. I guess I have to uninstall from the commandline.
I'm sad.
