Hi,
having a Libreoffice problem in F16 with searching text, using Ctrl+F or
edit/search: no menu appears for entering the text to search. F15 has no
such problems!
My current LO version: 3.4.4.2-2.fc16.x86_64
Anybody has this effect too?
Kind regards
Joachim Backes

Can we at least cut out the ad-homs? They're useless as a rhetorical
device, actual worse than useless, they're counter-productive. Calling

Hi all,
I have had this problem since Fedora 15. It is related to firefox so
I use midori other than for very secure matters because it does not have
256-bit encryption. I am using a Thinkpad T61.
The other option is to get rid of lxpanel (killall lxpanel), and use
something else. In F15, I use

At odd intervals (measured in quarter-hours, I think), F16 with
either Gnome or xfce will act up as follows.
The cursor remains visible, and moves according to the mouse; and
the eyes in panels follow it. But clicking, anywhere, right or left, does
nothing. Sometimes, if the fo
