Lars, There was a bug in drag and drop handling which was recently fixed in DBModeler. You may want to update everything.
Also... there are some issues presently with using GNUstep on GNOME since there are some issues with it's window manager. I don't know if this is due to non-compliance with the free-desktop standards on their end or something with GNUstep itself... this needs to be worked on. If you plan on demoing GNUstep you should do it on WindowMaker with the latest from SVN.

For that purpose I installed Ubuntu 8.10 inside a SUN VirtualBox VM. My aim doing so is to show how easy it is to start developing with GNUstep. For the same reason I got GNUstep and the dev-tools installed by the services that Ubuntu provides. As you might know this is not the latest and greatest of GNUstep but it works (somewhat). One of the things that don't work seems to be drag and drop from DBModeler to Gorm. I think I got everything needed installed and activated: DBModeler, Gorm, the GDL2.palette. When I drag an entity or an relation from DBModeler into the instances-window (is it called that way?) of Gorm the mouse cursor changes to a small forbidden-sign. When I now try to drop the entity or relationship snaps back into its place in the DBModeler Window. I tried several modifier keys: shift, control, alt (causes the whole window to move), command (shows the menu at the mouse position), nothing worked so far. Am I missing something? What could be the cause for this? Incompatible versions of DBModeler, Gorm and the GDL2.palette (I got some funky version 0.0.0(alpha) of DBModeler of 2006 (or was the info panel not updated), version 1.2.2 (Release) of Gorm of 5th of November 2007 and an unknown version of the GDL2.palette (how do I find out the version here?))? Is it maybe Gnome which interferes with GNUstep here? I also tried Window Maker what didn't help the cause a bit. What else could I try? And my final question: Is there alternative way of getting the GDL2 stuff from DBModeler inside Gorm? Otherwise this would possibly bust my talk since I don't have that much time left to track down that issue.
