Thank you very much, Peter, for your detailed hints. I will certainly
try these but it needs some time because - as said - the system is
already again running with _lots_ of GBs collected on both partitions
which have to be backed up. I will report on it soon.

No, I will not loose the interest in Linux. I am coming from the
Win-GUI and therefore indeed started with KDE against Tom's puristic
opinion. :-)
It is easier for me to get in and, hopefully, I can later transfer my
partly free german Win-C++ programs to english and the pertinent C++
language for Linux.
