Boxkite is a nice file selector that features will be missed.
BubbleGEM sometimes I do need help in the GUI ;-)
but it is no real loss if not using.

Actually the same if I do not run bubblegem and boxkite.
Reboot via teradesk, shutdown program and CTRL-ALT-DEL will hang the system 
after it writes some SIGTERM messages on screen.
Only way for succesful reboot is to use Task Manager, 
 - kill all apps, 
 - manually kill the apps that did not die, 
 - press REBOOT,
 - screen goes white & blinking cursor at home
 - system seems hang here but responsed to CTRL-ALT-DEL
 - instead of displaying boxkite as 1st line, it display now xaloader as 1st 
line.
 - followed by some other lines whihc I forgot
 - followed by SYNCing of my C: & E:
 - followed by DONE
 - now system hardware restart with Fuji Logo.
