Hello,
I'm new to this forum. I've been using Slackware and KDE for several years. I installed them on my new HP dv2555ea and, not having lot of time because of the university, I used in xorg.conf generic vesa driver.
A few days ago, I decided that Compiz-fusion and Emerald have to become part of my laptop, but changing in my xorg.conf the 'vesa' to 'intel' (obviously having enabled all the other modules and so on...), all icons and text disappear when I start KDE. I mean, I get the DE working (menu, programs, etc) but there is no text and no icons and the system is pretty unuseful. Just to give an example (copy and paste these links):
Full desktop with VESA driver:

Empty desktop (the same screenshot) with INTEL driver:
http://borniko.altervista.org/file.php?tipo=vuoto
Any ideas 'bout a possible solution???
Thanks a lot, guys.
UNiko.
Ah, and even though I can't see one single letter, compiz and emeral work more than fine...grrr
