I have been using mainly KDE, but every once in a while I try GNOME. It
seems that I always get a kind of bleed through effect. Sometimes when I
am in KDE the desktop icons from GNOME will bleed through and vice
versa. I do use GNOME programs in KDE and vice versa. I am wondering if
this has anything to do with it. It doesn't seem to crash anything but
is mostly annoying. The really strange thing is that I don't use any
desktop icons except "Trash." The first thing I do after an install is
get rid of them. I have had these kind of problems in several versions
of Mandrake and I always wind up going back to KDE, because the problems
seem to go away after awhile,. if I just use KDE. If I continue to use
GNOME, it seems that it gets worse . I can't seem to get the settings in
GNOME to stay where I set them. They keep changing back to the
defaults. Last week I ran Netscape in GNOME and it changed (spell
checked perhaps?) my address in my mail settings and changed the number
(0) to the letter (o). as a result anyone who replied to my mail would
get a return. It also sent some of my mail with blank body text. (the
subject line was all that was readable). I think GNOME has possibilities
and it seems to be less and less buggy with each new release, but I have
to go with KDE for now. Sorry I don't have any answers, but sometimes
listing the problems helps in running down the solution.
