hey everyone. Well i just installed Mandrake 7.2 on my computer and this is my first few days using linux. It's awesome. Well i like using gnome, hoever there's this little problem that i'm having with it. Yunno how you can select multiple files by using box selection (where you hold down the left mouse button and drag a box around the files you want selected) Well when i do that anywhere where the background is visible, the box remains on the background all messed up looking. The only way i can get rid of it is by dragging some window over it. It's like stuck onto the background image. This doesn't happen however when i'm in home directory window selecting files. It only happens when i try selecting stuff on the desktop. Is anybody with Mandrake 7.2 having this same problem? Any ideas what's causing it? Thanks.
