Just installed xfce and I get a black desktop!

Hi everyone! I just downloaded a dotpet of xfce4, and now my desktop is black except for the panel and taskbar. This happens for xfwm and icewm. Rox doesn't work anymore. The computer freezes when I change desktops. None of these problems occur in jwm, though. I'm using puppy Dingo 4.00 full install...

BUMP!!

I'm still having a problem with this! This is very irritating, and Opera has become corrupt somehow, so now I am very carefully writing this in SeaMonkey (Hope I don't press insert!)

I'm using IceWM, but that can't be a problem. My cousin's laptop is using IceWM and Flock runs perfectly!

They are both Full installations, both the same installations from the same CD. Both have the same amount of RAM. Theres more than enough free space on the Hard drives of both.

I tried the latest version of Firefox, and the same thing happened. I sent an error report to Mozilla.org

Leopard - Release Zero

Here is the latest theme I've been working on, an attempt to make puppy look like leopard. Any suggestions are welcome =) Plans for future releases: 1. Make pressed-down titlebar buttons 2. Use images where only solid colour is used (like menu popup selections, etc) I would appreciate any suggestion...

Thanks, here's Platinum Release Two

Yes, flat was the right one. I was trying to go fro a rounded taskbar, but there is still an annoying border around the start button, it's just made the same colour as the taskbar... I guess I'll just have to go for a square taskbar for now, until IceWM brings out a way to change these things. Here ...

Firefox/SeaMonkey/Flock crash when insert key is pressed

Hi

It would seem any Gecko-based browser I use crashes while I'm typing and I press the insert key by accident. This is ver annoying and I'd like to know if there was a way to fix this problem.

Maybe if I could disable the insert key for gecko-based browsers?

Thanks guys. I really appreciate your help. Yes the kernel source package for 3.01 does work in dingo. The drivers installed fine! Xorg was giving me a black screen. I suspected the graphics card was faulty, so then I took my graphics card out and found it to be covered in dust, and the fan couldn't...

Thanks Bruce. I think both version 3.01 and 4 of puppy use the same kernel version (for compatability reasons?), so wouldn't that mean I could use a kernel source package for 3.01? --------------------------------------------------------------------- If my understanding is wrong, please correct.
