the displaying of images in slideshow nodes only works if the image module is enabled. maybe some problem with installing and using the image module prior to slideshow?
seems to be similar problem as over here:
http://drupal.org/node/74407
as that thread was closed, i created a new one. pls move or delete my post if i shouldn't have, thanks.

Could you please describe a way to replicate this behavior? What happens if you disable image.module?

For your information, I don't have image.module in my installation at all and slideshow.module still works fine. Probably it's something that image.module changes/installs and that breaks when it's no longer there.

to replicate:
- install drupal 5
- file system: Private - files are transferred by Drupal, directory is outside www
- install slideshow module, enable.
- create content: slideshow.

seems to work, except that no pictures get displayed.

- install image module, enable.

the pictures get displayed.

i realized that the 'file system: private' might be to blame, so i changed to 'public' and disabled the image module. slideshow pictures still work. now it seems like the image module actually fixes something.
looks similar to:
http://drupal.org/node/97117

This probably was related to http://drupal.org/node/97117 and not related to image.module.
