gnome 2.4 seems to be having "issues on the two systems I have converted over so far:
evolution is proving unreliable (multiple lockups), attachment attaching is not working right (both systems) stable, nice galeon 2.11 will not compile with gtk2 because epihany, which is a dependency now requires - reccomend you remove epihany and go with gtk1, see below. Went to galeon 1.3.9 (its in portage) but it seems to be missing a few features as the menus have been reorganised. mozilla/galeon/epihany will no longer work with any of the internet banking sites I use in Oz - have had to fall back to netscape 4.7 and IE Unfortunately I have been too busy to follow up as I need a working system at the moment, and wish I had waited a bit longer to upgrade.
