Starting a new thread. Was Re: [gentoo-user] Gentoo's preference, Gnome or KDE ?
< gnome2.4 has been rock solid for me a several weeks now (got it as soon < as an ebuild showed up). Have you tried backing off on your CFLAGS (and < recompiling)? usually fixes my problems with "unstable" programs. <-chris (graves) I've been experimenting with it, and it seems basically ok - no crap outs yet. Uses a lot fewer resources than kde. I do have a few of questions. 1. When shutting down, gnome 2.4 always produces a dialog box saying (similar words to these) "these applications (all of mine are listed) won't restart, you will need to restart them manually." But they lie. Most of them restart, but all crammed onto the first desktop! Is there any way to cause gnome not to restart them, as it promissed? 2. When I right click and select properties for a desktop icon, I'm only allowed to select an icon from /usr/share/pixmaps. Any way to get around this and use icons from other locations? For example, OpenOffice has a suitable icon available, but I can't find any way to use it, so I have to be content with the "footprint." -- Collins Richey - Denver Area if you fill your heart with regrets of yesterday and the worries of tomorrow, you have no today to be thankful for. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
