Not able to leave or switch apps

[bobjrsenior]

It's definitely not a dumb question. 

My solution has been to ssh into the phone from my laptop, use ps to find the settings process, and then kill it.  The ps I use is
ps -ae | grep settings
This will show the process number for settings, e.g. 1234.  Then use kill on it like this
kill 1234

Using ssh to do it isn't ideal but that does give me a solution other than restarting. Thanks for the help.

I'm thinking of trying another distro/GUI when my MicroSD card comes in as well. The Phosh GUI seem to have a little bottom arrow to leave apps.
