Listmates, I have installed both x86_64 and i586 versions of 11.2. Initially I was really enjoying the release. As I loaded more software, I began to experience significant problems. There was that strange "LC_*" not set issue and then finally I experienced a complete meltdown of the x86_64 box - it's a wipe clean and reinstall issue. The i586 box is also having issues. The most glaring is multiple duplicate entries in the yast -> sysconfig editor (i.e. two DISPLAY MANAGER, two WINDOW MANAGER sections, etc...) I know that can't be good. Additionally compiz works perfectly in gnome, but fails to start in kde giving the error of screens not found on display :0.0. There are other oddities. Gnome had been my primary desktop and had been working fine. Just now for some reason, it has lost all window decoration (just plain gnome -- no compiz). In fact, the only way to get window decorations back is to start compiz and select the gtk decorator. Is there a 'gtkdeco --replace' like command in gnome I can try? Something like the 'emerald --replace' command in compiz? I haven't had time to keep up with the list lately so I don't know if this has already been discussed, but I'm interested in hearing your experiences with either meltdowns and solutions or multiple entries in sysconfig. What says the braintrust? Tip: for those that use mc, in options -> configuration, choose 'Lynx-like motion' on the right side and mc becomes a thing of beauty. No more scrolling to the top of the directory just to go up in the hierarchy. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
