------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-22-09 14:26 ------- "...so we are not going to erase with the general one ... what a strange idea !! " Yes, it would be "strange" if that is what I wrote but it is not. I also did not write that a properly installed IceWm did not run. If MDK installs IceWM and a user config file keeps the install from working properly, the end user is going to think that MDK did a bad job of installing the programs. I am glad that RD folks use IceWm all the time, SO??? I have been using it on & off for 3 years and the version I had ran just "fine" too. Big deal. New versions of IceWm often have conflicts with old user config files. The "preferences" format changes frequently but MDK has never done anything to avoid the conflicts. This was an opportunity for MDK to remedy that problem. If you do not want to fix it, fine. I reported it so I am done. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: RESOLVED creation_date: description: icewm-1.2.13-0.3.1mdk installed this morning runs but is completely unusable: There is no taskbar/toolbar or any menus available; left, right and middle click of the mouse buttons do nothing. CTRL-ALT-BSPC is disabled or not working(cannot quit X / icewm) requiring user to go to VC and kill the icewm-session. Oddly( since it is in the middle of the preferences file) the "DesktopBackgroundImage" gets loaded but apparently nothing else. I waited ~ 2 minutes for IceWM to load the first time; normally it takes about 5 seconds to load everything. It worked before the 9->9.2 upgrade _and_ it was working with RC2 version(quite nICEly I will add) before the new cooker version was installed. Probably a config error somewhere(Ima-huntin) but the "upgrade" should not have done that. Note that someone with only IceWM installed will not have a readily available/usable X system if they get this bug too so I marked it "blocker".
