Hi there!

Having a problem with right-click menu: if right-clicking on a folder...no menu appears. Actually I can't open, rename, move...

Appling right-click on files....everthing is fine.

Desktop is Gnome.

Any clues on fixing this problem?
(I guess it happened after updating the kernel to 2.6.32-34-generic with synaptic)

Thanks to all

Ale

Hi

are you sure that your mouse is working good ?

well

in the grub menu you are going to have previous kernel versions . while choosing the kernel to boot , choose your previous kernel versions to boot and look the mouse option over there .
let me know what you got .

in your grub menu , you are going to have old kernels , test your mouse right click option by booting to those kernels .

press & hold shift key for grub menu while your system booting , and then boot from previous kernels .

all the best

actually, it's not the kernel itself. after rebooting, i had a crash and reinstalled the whole system.

now,just kernel 2.6.32-28-generic is installed

at the beginning...right-click menu on folder was fine, but now the problem persist after an update via synaptic. (i kept apart the new kernel for checking...)

really depressing... :(
