zxello, you don't need to restart to test it. Just hit CTRL-ALT-F1 (I think that's the correct combo). That will pop up a special Litestep menu, where you can choose "Restart Litestep", which it does.. no restarts.. no logouts.. needed.
Cocktopus, Litestep isn't being produced as much as it has in the past, but it still has quite a following (and why shouldn't it, it's a great product

)
