Perhaps I'm mistaken about the DE being gnome, I keyed on the replacement
of the raspberry icon in the upper left by a bare footprint with four toes.
I _though_ that was a gnome trademarke, no? Is there a way to check/select
which DE to use?

Performance seems no worse than with Stretch, which is acceptable for
my purposes. Chromium no longer locks the Pi on weather satellite images,
which by itself is enough to justify the upgrade.

Thanks for reading,
