Porteus 4.0 586 32b kernel. On Intel P4 functions normal. With Intel P3 512gb ram 1024x768, LXDE menu panel does not appear, neither does desktop mouse button 2 menu. Background image and trashcan are there. How to fix?

I have a similar problem with LXDE on my Acer 1353XV computer. None of the other versions of Porteus would work with this PC, either. I am awaiting forum help. I will let you know if anyone can help me with this. :x

I suspect that it is either a graphics card incompatibility, or simply insufficient RAM available on this ancient system to load and run everything properly.

Please try the xfce4 desktop version, just to see if it works better. And report. This should help us to understand what is going on.

Thanks.

And more pertinent:

run lxpanel command from lxterminal to show it
