I can't actually get to the debian packages. I don't know if it's significant, but I didn't supply any arguments to ./configure. > I made a link in /etc/gconf/schemas to > /usr/local/etc/gconf/schemas/galeon.schemas. Ok, done. As you say, it didn't work---same error. > That should have worked but it didn't.

[rcclinux:~]$ /bin/ls -AlF ~/.gconf total 4 drwx--S--- 2 cobbe cobbe 4096 Aug 24 12:17 %gconf-xml-backend.lock/ I'm obviously missing something here. I tried creating the directory you mentioned, but that didn't help either---same error. I should point out that, while I've got the gnome libraries and a variety of gnome apps (like gnucash, gnumeric, and dia) installed, I don't actually use the gnome desktop. Is that system perhaps creating some files that galeon's looking for? Richard -- /"\ \ / X ASCII RIBBON CAMPAIGN / \ AGAINST HTML MAIL
