No, I mean drag and drop on the desktop using the mouse, not something like a 'mv' command. OK, so we're getting the same results. fvwm crashes when I try to start that one! So far xfce is the best. I also tried something called 'E16-Gnome' (part of the EWM package) It works but I cannot see or feel any difference yet. Maybe it's just Gnome with a diffeent WM underneath or something? Cheers, Mark
