Daniel, I assume you are talking about E17
This sounds like a machine speed problem. Try holding your mouse button down longer; like until you can see the menu. I get the same problem when running E17 in valgrind. Also you can try to disable the dropshadow module to squeeze out some extra speed. -Stafford On Wed, 2005-07-13 at 00:23 +1000, Daniel Kasak wrote: > Greetings. > > For quite some time now, the menus that appear when I click on the > desktop ( all menus behave the same ) have been difficult to ... click on. > > The menu will appear and then disappear almost instantly.
