I've taken this search for a bugfix about as far as I can, without outside help. Nothing that I've tried has allowed me to create a 2.6.26 kernel for my "fileserver" machine with the boot parameter "hpet=disable". That also includes the stock 2.6.26-1 kernel. (On my "desktop" machine, both stock

2008-05-19 Thread David Witbrodt
FYI, I had the same problem with 'xfce4-session' this morning on a newly built machine. The upgrade from 4.4.2-3 to 4.4.2-5 caused XFCE to freeze while trying to load, and downgrading to 4.4.2-3 fixed the problem. HTH, Dave Witbrodt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a sub

I just upgraded from Etch to Sid, and was playing with the same version of 'compiz' as the OP. I also prefer XFCE, and ran into the same problem with 'compiz --replace' not being able to run 'gtk-window-decorator' (from pkg 'compiz-gtk') because the script requires an environment variable that wil
