This is really weird as both Debian and Slackware use same xorg: dpkg -l |grep xserver-xorg-core ii xserver-xorg-core 2:1.12.4-6 amd64 Xorg X server - core server ls /var/log/packages/ |grep xorg-server xorg-server-1.12.4-x86_64-1_slack14.0 Nobody has any idea what could be the problem? Should I file a bug? Would that be bug for Xorg or Iceweasel? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
