Hi Bogdan,

I do not recall the previous discussions.

When you create a new user for testing purposes and then log in with
that user id and password, do you get a usuable desktop, then?

If not I would install an alternative windowmanager, e.x. xfce or icewm
or fluxbox... and see, what happens when you use them.

If anything else fails I would suspect a hardware issue, most probably
related to your graphics card.

regards
Eberhard
