Marnix,

did you ever come across some strange issue where Gnome/Nautilus 
couldn't create certain files such as .ICEauthority file or .bashrc file?

As currently I am getting a blue screen with nothing else other then the 
desktop backround as there seem to be wrong permissions for the X 
windowing system to create menus etc.

Regards,

Kaya
