I had to remove ~/.e from a console to be able to launch it again. Enabling composite with software worked nicely, *but*: a) I couldn't switch it off ever again. and b) Refreshing the desktop became sluggish (as in gkrellms would regularly 'freeze' and not update). So I decided to switch it off until I try KMS with my ATI video card in case it copes better with it. Glad you got it working - please let us know of any gotchas in the future - you're bound to come across these before some of us do. :-) -- Regards, Mick
