Something seems amiss. Using copy/paste I got neither errors nor matches.

There is a directory ~/.config/chromium/Default which contains what
appear to be files describing chromium's present and past states, but
nothing whose name suggests it's a startup script or command line.

Have I got something deeply misconfigured? The replacement of the
raspberry icon by the gnome footprint in the applications menu icon
was a considerable surprise when it happened during the upgrade to
Buster. Is it possible to have a mixed LXDE/GNOME desktop environment?
Can one determine which desktop is in use? The "about" box from the
menu bar reports "LXPanel 0.10.0". That makes the Gnome footprint
on the Applications menu somewhat hard to explain.

Thanks for replying!
