So we can assume that you have done any suggested changes to the X server setup. The following is accurate for kde. I do not know if it is the same for gnome. You should run something called fusion-icon. It starts what needs to be started, and provides an icon in the services tray from where you can access all the various configuration options. If this does not make it work, you probably have some details left with the X server. For some reason, this is not set up by default. In addition, some update not too long ago took away whatever system scripts that may have set this up, requiring me to once again add a call to starting this in my Autostart folder. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Kapellgränd 7 P.O.
