I have been using DSL on my laptop for some time now and this problem just came up recently. When I click on the mydsl icon the usual 10 button menu come up but when I click a button nothing happens for a matter of minutes, then a blank window pops up and I never get a list of extensions like I used to. Any help with this problem would be great

If it just started occuring today, then its probably because the server the repository is on, appears to be down. I haven't been able to get it on it for the past 18 hours or so.

the ibiblio server is down. You can still use the mydsl gui by changing the mydsl mirror (Tools -> Mirror Selector)

Thank goodness for the mirror sites.
The main distro.ibiblio.org is down.
I was going to post dsl-3.1 RC1 last night, but no go.
So, as soon as ibiblio's issues are resolved, I will try again.
