That fix works, but classes are over now. Thanks Peter, now I
don't have to boot into a Fedora Electronics Workbench virtualbox session
to use gschem. I suppose I could have tried using GNOME3 as Colin

Thanks for the help. Here's hoping, in the future, there's a fix
without having to specify settings manually at startup.
