I looked into this a little more. My trixie system is a VirtualBox VM, which I normally run with 3D graphics acceleration enabled. I tried booting the VM with 3D graphics acceleration disabled, and zenity worked fine. Also, I see that "=" is not needed for the command-line options. But both --display and --class apparently need to be removed. This command works fine: zenity --entry --title Marco --text "New Workspace Name:" --entry-text Home --ok-label OK --cancel-label Cancel regards, mike
