</div>Ok, I see my mistake. I SWEAR the first time I opened gpicview the<br>
'About' box said it was a "Lightweight image viewer for Gnome".<br>
I must be getting dyslexic as well as nearsighted...<br>
Besides that, I thought Ristretto was a good fit because of it being<br>
in the Xfce "family".</blockquote><div><br>The version I have from Hardy says Lightweight image viewer for LXDE. <br><br>And no, just because an application declares it self as an Xfce application doesn't mean it makes it better than any other application.<br>

<br>
Ok. The conversation at the end of that thread led me to believe that<br>
it may have been mistakenly marked.<br>

*edvard turns head sideways*<br>
weird, maybe cause it's on a different monitor. This one looks similar<br>
but smoother and more "glowy"<br>

</div>I'll agree one hundred percent with Vincent's reply to this one.<br>
All those skinnable players look funky and 'out-of-place' to me and<br>
always have, especially when you have to view it at double size due to<br>
having a high-resolution monitor (hmm... imagine a player that uses<br>
svg skins...).<br>
I do admit it's nice to have a separate media player. Totem's labeling<br>
as a "Movie Player" always threw me off...<br>
I don't know which one to suggest, honestly. I'll probably get used to<br>
it.<br>
Hell, I was happy with Xfmedia (despite xine lib bugs...), who am I to<br>
complain? :P</blockquote><div><br>So, do you have a suggestion? :)<br> <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><br>

</div>Will do.<br>
<br>
BTW- I noticed a few more things last night.<br>
<br>
-First start of Mozilla Firefox started up with two tabs of ubufox<br>
startpage that were both blank and a tab of the license page.<br>
Subsequent runs brought up only one ubufox page. Still blank.</blockquote><div><br>What build was this? What is the homepage set as? I take it you're connected to the internet when you try this?<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
-I opened a terminal and grep'd dmesg for errors. Apparently uvesafb<br>
crapped out at some point because it couldn't find v86d.<br>
A cursory web search looks like uvesafb has replaced vesafb as the<br>
default framebuffer driver (confirm?) which depends on v86d<br>
(<a href="http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/fb/uvesafb.txt" target="_blank">http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/fb/uvesafb.txt</a>). Doing a<br>
web search for this bug came up with a healthy handful of reports so I<br>
assume it's being worked on.<br>
Either way, I assume that one's way upstream...<br>
That's all I have for now, I'm downloading today's daily for more<br>
testing tonight...</blockquote><div><br>w00t! :)<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><br>
