    Hi!

    Im having a problem with the Add/Remove software feature (the one available after the advanced desktop hack).

    Some things, like the game "Wormux" (a worms linux clone) when i select them and then make apply, it show´s on the details box that it will remove A LOT of things!!!

    I advanced with the installation, thinking that all i needed was installing the O.S. again so, no problem.

    Well... after the installation (who went fine), i had NO desktop AT ALL!!! Just the search bar on the top-right...

    So, im new to linux, and im asking: what have i done wrong? Is there a secret about the repositorie that i don´t know?

    Thanks in advance. Would really like to get an answer, since i CAN´T install anything with this feature...

    Well, i have restored the linpus, and theres the desktop. You may have installed badly, or something as it isnt normal. Try to run "xfdesktop2" and see what you get.
