> Do you run it with KDE or Gnome also installed? Do I have KDE installed?? Hell, that was the first thing I *unchecked* in the package selection during install... ;-) However, my wife's/daughter's machine has KDE installed, and I was going to install the latest XFCE on there, I'll letcha know what happens. Gnome certainly does not seem to be causing any problems. > I have run it with a Gnome installation and it works perfectly. I have > tried it with KDE and all my problems have come back.

If so, all you have to do is under Desktop Prefs select 'None' for desktop icons. If you still want a 'trash' or whatever, there's a Trashbin plugin for the panel, I believe. I've grown used to 'if I delete it, it's deleted'. :-) If what you're getting is duplicate icons, then check to see if XFCE is running KDE services at startup or something. Under Sessions --> Advanced, see if KDE services are starting with XFCE. You shouldn't need them, AFAIK. Your best bet, though, in the end, is with the XFCE list. They'll have more in-depth knowledge about how the desktop icons work, and since this is a release candidate, they are usually more than happy to help you bug-hunt :-) -- JoeHill / RLU #282046 /////////////////////////// "People should not be afraid of their Government, the Government should be afraid of the People." -- V. ____________________________________________________ Want to buy your Pack or Services from Mandriva?
