    MF> I have it running on Mageia5(KDE) and Mint18.2(KDE) and I cannot

   Good question ... Debian 8.9.

   I polled with the old version ... all OK, polled with the new version and I   
   get a black screen and many of the lines above.   
      
    MF> Has OpenXP created an ERROR.TXT file in ~/.openxp   
    MF> If it has, can you see anything in there which might be useful?   
      
   That seems to be from a previous problem. (it is from 2016 ;))   
      
   But it seems the issue is in the nodelist updating (xpfidonl).   
      
   PS: Issue is on my virtual server, I think you might still have an account   
   there.
