You should be able to get Gnus back to defaults simply by commenting out
everything in your .gnus.el file except for the server definitions. That
should put you back to vanilla Gnus.
If you want to take another stab at configuring the look of the summary
buffers, you might have better luck asking in emacs.gnus.general.
