Then both the keyboard and the mouse pointer will work as expected. I do so every time I use Mathematica under Linux, and I think it has nothing to do with the missing fonts because on my system those fonts are still missing :-)), while the "small rectangle" does not appear. The same question already appeared before on this list, by the way... Best regards, Marko ================================================================ Murphys computer law: 25.
