after first boot,the screen almost nothing.
right click -> Desktop -> Disgplay Control -> X -> Xorg -> 2464x900 change to 1440X900 then you have unnormal screen.

2.
menu -> System -> Pup-Sysinfo -> Devices -> Display -> Complete

Does this problem go away if you run jwm -restart? This could be a bug in JWM.
