I use codeblocks also on both platforms, and never had this kind of problems.

Unfortunately it wasn't as easy to swap between KDE and Gnome as I thought so I'll have to leave that for now. However, here's what I have done....
1) Load up the Code::Blocks - Unix project from within Code::Blocks itself.
2) Select the build target "All".
3) Select Build->Clean and remove all object files.
4) Close Code::Blocks
5) Open a terminal window and switch to my C::B root folder.
6) Try to rebuild C::B using 'make'.
To my amazement it tells me there's nothing to be done!!

Doing things blindly will get you nowhere. What does the Code::Blocks project file has to do with 'make'? :shock:
You will either use Code::Blocks to build Code::Blocks (with the supplied project file) or you will use autotools and friends (configure, make, make install). Make your pick.
Also make sure you read the wiki for instructions on building because something tells me you missed performing one very important step.

I just changed between KDE, Gnome and icewm , started codeblocks, compiled a project and started it.
No problems.
Also no such problems here on WinXP/SP2 and W2k .

Just to clarify - up until a week ago I'd never built Code::Blocks from source at all. I'd ran all my previous installations from rpm packages. However, each time I did an update, C::B just became more & more unreliable. Eventually, I was advised to try installing from source.
I've only compiled from source once but the finished executable still has all the same problems. I can't see anything obvious in the wiki that I've missed out - although some of its instructions are slightly different from the ones that I followed. For example, it gives the instruction make -f Makefile.unix to perform the build. That wouldn't work for me (I got an error about Makefile.unix being an invalid folder). So I just typed make (and eventually, make install). Also, I installed wxWidgets and wxGTK-devel from rpm packages, as opposed to the tar files recommended in the wiki. Other than those differences though, I seem to have done everything.
What is the important step you think I missed?
