Well after some trouble with my external drive on which I store the
virtual machines for testing and finally getting all the -devel packages
prerequisites for -gui/-back installed, I get a clean build of the
Startup script on SuSE 9.2 but I seem to have issues with the fonts not
being found.

I can verify that there is a non-empty nfont wrapper at:
/usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Fonts/Helvetica.nfont

yet when starting an application I get are:
The font specified for NSFont, Helvetica, can't be found.

multiple times before I get an empty alert panel.

Sorry, I don't have time to look at this myself right now but I'll save
the session for later inspection.

Cheers,
David
