Moin Guru's,

the following thing bugs me for ages:

When starting SL it comes up with a black screen. The buttons are there, e.g. I can click on the (Quit) button, even if I don't see it. I have to resize the SL window to tell the SL viewer to redraw the login screen. This happens on Gentoo with both IceWM and TWM.

Any idea where this bug is filed in Jira, so I can vote for it?

ciao,Kephra

Moin Guru's,

just an update to my blank screen before login problem. I now have a 3rd Gentoo box where this problem does not appear. The main difference between my eeepc, my shuttle and the new system is the graphic card using the non-free nvidia driver, while the eeepc is using the free i810 driver and the shuttle is using the free Tungsten driver for ati9250.

still wonder, that I'm the only one with this problem ... and noone points me to a jira to vote.

ciao,Kephra Nurmi
