Hi all,
I was just wondering if anybody had the same problem...
After every menu regeneration completes, E seems to have a problem with the menus... and even if the apps menu opens properly, the settings and enlightenment menu open with a blurry background and the items are scrambled...
Plus the applications I want to start through the apps menu don't launch at all, nor any action, I have to use the keyboard shortcuts to log out and then back in for E to work right... If someone has an explanation and/or a patch to fix this, I'll gladly update. I'm running E 16.6 release 1 on a laptop with RH9 and a custom compiled kernel. I have to use the VESA driver due to an incompatibility of X and my graphics chipset, but I have no other problems aside from that. Thanks for the feedback,
John C.



I don't have such problems. First we'd like to better understand your system. So I'd like you to answer the following:

(1) Your version of E is enlightenment-0.16.6-1.rh9, right? just to
confirm!


I confirm, I got it off sourceforge.net

(2) What graphics chipset do you have?


it's an ATI IGP 320M, aka radeon mobility u1, for the moment it only works with the VGA or VESA driver. I use the VESA in 1024x768 in 24 bits with XFree 4.3.0-2 from redhat, until the 4.4 is released, but it shouldn't have that much of an impact on E I think...

(3) Why did you compile your default kernel? What feature(s) did you add
to it?


I compiled it to include the agp support of the damn chipset into it as well as the acpi functionality. Otherwise it's the default redhat config file I found in /boot/
Do you want a copy of it? I'm using an HP Pavilion ZE4400 customised...


Maybe the answers could help find a solution.


With kind regards,


Didier.
