1. where is the screensaver control - the cc doesn't seem to have anything on it
Don't know about Ximian's version, but the normal Gnome2 desktop does have a Screensaver control in the Control Center.
2. why do all the fonts look bigger than in kde even more so for kde applications? and how to manage it. (just choosing smaller fonts in kde doesn't do the trick as they become unreadable there!)
This has come up on the list before, I think - try searching the archives.
3. how to mount cd / dvd on the desktop? if i run something like xmms it reads the cd but trying to right-click and add it to the desktop won't work (gives mounting error) and the file manager also doesn't seem to want to open this device.
You don't mount audio CDs - under KDE or Gnome. If you're just wanting to play them, you've managed that. If you want to rip them, run Grip or something like that. If you want to mount data CDs and DVDs, what exactly is the error you're getting?
4. talking thereof - is there any chance of watching dvd's on ximin?
Use whatever app you use under KDE - MPlayer, xine, ogle... HTH John -- John Pettigrew Headstrong Games john@headstrong-games.co.uk Fun : Strategy : Price http://www.headstrong-games.co.uk/ Board games that won't break the bank Fields of Valour: 2 Norse clans battle on one of 3 different boards
