I'm a newbie in the Qimo theme,

but I think you may try to connect to Internet and discharge the adobe
Flashplayer plugin.

Best regards for you and your son Qimo experience

Subject: [Bug 519072] [NEW] All full-scren apps hang..

Public bug reported:

Hi,

I am trying to get Qimo 1.0 up n' running on a computer for my 3 year
old. It's a Pentium IV with 1 gig of memory, and a radeon 8500 gfx.

At any rate:

Qimo wouldn't install, nor boot from CD unless I made it ignore VGA
options on the boot loader.

In-System everything works fine, except for applications that utilize
full-screen, so all the games, tuxpaint etc - all give me a cross-line
multicolour screen and I have no choice but to reboot.

I'm sure this isn't a bug, as such, I am merely looking for help - as I
am both new to linux (only having tried ubuntu before, and never
experiencing something like this..) and really want this to WORK! :-)

Hope someone can help me, I will provide answers to any and all
questions you might require.
