Hi Ralf, thanks for your reply! I would try with a PS2 mouse, my doubt is because I'm also using a USB audio interface, so I think that the USB problem might affect also the audio interface (but as far as I remember it keeps working even when mouse starts to get slow, but I'm not sure). Also have

Hi Kenneth I don't know about the Pannel icons, but if your desktop icons and windows dissapear, you can reload nautilus by typing alt+f2 and then nautilus without the commas. Think your problem is GNOME related though. Did you try logging off and back on without restarting? and what happens if

Hello all! I've changed my system due to compatibility problems with ubuntustudio, but still have similar problems with the new one. Both have Athlon 64 x2 processors, one has a MSI motherboard, other an Elite motherboard. With the current 10.04 release (not final) I have also similar problems
