this on 'dpkg.log'. taking in count uninstalled 'xserver-xorg-input-joystick 1:1.4.0-0ubuntu1' , re-installed packages synaptic package manager, of course in process read use of each one, restarted system , no luck, looking @ situation installed once again 'xserver-xorg-input-joystick 1:1.4.0-0ubuntu1' having uninstalled or quite same, it's courious time, installed synaptic package manager, did not demanded other of anterior packages have uninstalled. thoughs directed in configuration file perhaps made enough myself , wouldn't ruin current instalation of gnome have working smooth, @ least problem of graphical desktop not vital @ all, maybe work kde or enlightment while find solution this, apreciated.

greetings

never mind, i'll stick xcfe desktop enviorement, it's awsome , perfect heavy work =)
