I don't know why this is happening, but note that reinstalling packages
in Linux is usually a waste of time. Any per-user settings are not going
to be affected, and that's where you should be looking. Note that the
problem could also be with X or your desktop environment. You could try
running Evo as a test user and see if it changes.
