thank god!! snapshots on linux leave your home directory alone. i had to restore a snapshot because of an issue with my graphics driver. and now everything works fine and i barely had to reconfigure anything, since the config and cache for my programs were left alone
i'm gonna have to reset up my eepsite again because i messed up and put in a bad command when trying to install something. at least i didn't have as hard a time as when i 1st had to do a fresh install. anyway happy new year
experienced this exact same thing the other week - nearly crapped myself because I thought I'd need to redo everything. I <3 linux.
