Does this use Enlightenment? there is a Forum here http://forum.intilinux.com/opengeu-english-forum/ can you change the window manager at login? use a simple one like LXde can you see the logs for the X server? do you use Compiz? if so turn it off! what are the Graphics resolutions? can you alter them. what adapter do you have and can you try an alternative driver ( from Control panel and Hardware) can you pin when it happened, if after a kernel update I just wait for this to be fixed whilst using the old one ( takes about three weeks normally) Just hit a key before the OS loads and get a Kernel select menu and use the 2nd one from the top. ________________________________________________________________________ Regards Kevin Lucas Minions Post Master(Sub) sip:kevin.lucas@xxxxxxxxx www.minionsbandb.co.uk www.tearooms.minionsbandb.co.uk FaceBook Minions_shop Po House, Minions, Liskeard Cornwall PL14 5LE 01579363386 -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
