Motherboard compatibility - AMD

[jONE]

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
you do restart?

About the AMD's freezing, thanks, if I ever have the problem again, thast
the first thing I'll check!
