I wasn't able to find pkg_rmleaves, so I tried pkg_delete on all the
related packages I could find.

after installing again, I'm still in the same boat. The screen
resolution is too fine to make it usable, the menus are missing, and
(as expected) many icons are missing.

It looks like once you start down the (mislead?) path of upgrading to
4.6, there is no going back to a working version, so I need to get
this one working.

Since the XFCE menu is not supported in 4.6 yet, is there a file I can
edit to get the screen resolution and refresh rate set correctly
(important), and to switch the theme (much less important).
