OK, after some testing I found that gnome-session works OK on 10.8.2 for me as well. So I'll revise my statement: what appears to be broken is the combination of gnome-session and the old X11s on 10.5 and 10.6. On 10.5 I got the same results with either the stock Apple X11 and the latest Xquartz which was available for that (2.6.3). On 10.6, I only used the stock X11 since that's what we support. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
