In 5.0, I'd only run X as root with the common fwm colours & as one user in darker colours. In 6.0, it was root, & two users, each user had almost identical settings, root just dark. In each, I only saw it in Gnome between the "other" user & root, while in my regular user account, I ran Enlightenment. The only thing I can think of that is different to when I've run later releases or later releases of other distros, is that in RH 5.0 & 6.0, I had a very small swap. I was thinking that with this either likely being memory or X (though maybe any number of different related files). That might be a good place to start. How much RAM is in the box, how large a swap partition & which distro release & release of X, Gnome & KDE?
