ive been able to get gnome-2.6 to install having tweaked
my sources.list file and then using
using the apt-get gnome-desktop-environment method


        Me too, on a alubook 17 First generation.


however, after loging in at gdm, i have a long wait
and then although gnome 2.6 has started, the underlying
window manager has not.


I have the same problem exactly, so when gnome 2.6 starts take 5 or 10 minutes. I thought initially that gnome-smproxy was doing anything wrong. I tried to change to sawfish and the result is the same.

        Anybody has any clue �bout time that gnome 2.6 takes to start?.

        Sorry for my english :-)


I did an upgrade last night and am now experiencing the same issue. It looks very similar to what happens when switching from sawfish to metacity, before metacity takes control. I can start most apps (not gnome-sessions) but when they display they have no title bars and I cannot resize or move windows.

Ah, the fun of experimental!
